ZEEKR 009 - THE TOYOTA ALPHARD IS COOKED

EV Channels Review

The Zeekr 009 continues to impress as a luxurious and bold electric MPV, even as newer competitors emerge. Its standout features include a futuristic, ostentatious design, a spacious and premium interior crafted with high-quality materials like Napa leather and Alcantara, and exceptionally comfortable second-row seats offering heating, ventilation, and massage. The ride quality is a highlight, prioritizing comfort with dual-chamber air suspension and CCD technology to smooth out road imperfections, creating a serene cabin experience. While the reviewer praises its strong performance from the dual motors and the well-engineered SEA platform, they note some drawbacks. The third-row seats lack electronic adjustment, wireless charging is slow and lacks ventilation, and there's no option for a fridge or heater in the cabin. The reviewer also points out the large turning circle and the absence of rear-wheel steering as minor inconveniences. Despite these points, the Zeekr 009 is lauded for its value, luxurious second row, and overall well-sorted package, making it a compelling option for those seeking a premium, silent, and comfortable MPV, especially with its upcoming release in Australia.
