2025 ZEEKR 7X REVIEW: INSANE VALUE AT $57,000 - MODEL Y KILLER??

EV Channels Review

The Zeekr 7X has officially landed in Australia, presenting a compelling value proposition at its $57,000 starting price, positioning it as a serious contender against established models like the Tesla Model Y and BYD Sealion 7. The reviewer highlights its aggressive pricing across all trims: the base rear-wheel drive (RWD) with a 75 kWh LFP battery offering 480 km WLTP range, the Long Range RWD with a 100 kWh NMC battery for 615 km WLTP range, and the Performance all-wheel drive (AWD) with a 536 km WLTP range. The interior is praised for its exceptional quality, quietness, and solid build, featuring soft-touch materials and a large 16-inch infotainment display with snappy processing. Practicality is also a strong suit, with ample boot space and a decent frunk on RWD models. The 800-volt architecture enables astonishing charging speeds, with the LFP battery capable of charging from 10-80% in approximately 10 minutes. Driving impressions reveal a comfortable and smooth ride in the RWD Long Range, while the AWD Performance model, equipped with air suspension, offers a sportier, albeit firmer, experience. The reviewer is highly impressed, recommending the Zeekr 7X for its comprehensive package of value, range, and driving dynamics, despite minor quirks like electronic steering wheel adjustment and the placement of air vent controls.
