Zeekr Unveils Its First Family SUV: The Zeekr 7X Equipped with Silicon Carbide-powered e-motors

Zeekr has just introduced its first midsize electric SUV, the Zeekr 7X, at the Chengdu Motor Show, marking a significant milestone in the brand’s global expansion. Designed with families in mind, the Zeekr 7X combines spaciousness, cutting-edge technology, and impressive performance.

The Zeekr 7X is built on the pure electric Sustainable Experience Architecture (SEA), offering a roomy and comfortable interior with superior headroom and legroom compared to existing midsize SUVs. Its dimensions—4,825mm in length, 1,930mm in width, and 1,656mm in height, with a 2,925mm wheelbase—ensure ample space for families. The SUV is also packed with practical features, including 32 ergonomically designed storage compartments and a generous 616-liter trunk, making it perfect for weekend getaways.

Under the hood, the Zeekr 7X boasts silicon carbide-powered e-motors that can propel the vehicle from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour in just 3.8 seconds, offering an exhilarating driving experience. The SUV is available with two battery options: a 75kWh lithium-iron phosphate (LFP) battery that provides a 605-kilometer driving range (CLTC), and a 100kWh nickel manganese cobalt (NMC) battery pack that extends the range to 780 kilometers (CLTC). Zeekr’s LFP batteries are particularly noteworthy, offering the world’s fastest charging capability, with the ability to charge from 10% to 80% in just 10.5 minutes.

The Zeekr 7X is also equipped with advanced smart driving features, powered by dual Nvidia Orin-X SoCs, lidar, high-definition cameras, and millimeter-wave radars, ensuring a safe and intelligent driving experience. The infotainment system is powered by the Qualcomm 8295 chipset, providing a seamless and connected journey.

While there are some configuration differences between the Chinese and export versions, with Nvidia technology being exclusive to the Chinese market, the Zeekr 7X is poised to make a strong impact globally. Deliveries in China are expected by the end of September, with global markets following within the next year.
