ZEEKR is Geely's premium EV brand, and the 7X is the model the brand is leading with in Australia. It is the medium-large electric SUV that Geely wants to position above the Polestar 4 and around the BMW iX2. We put it through a proper test, including a track session at The Bend in South Australia.
What you are buying
An 800-volt architecture, which means properly fast DC charging when you can find a charger that delivers it. A choice of rear-wheel drive or dual-motor all-wheel drive. WLTP range figures sit in the 480 km to 615 km bracket depending on the variant. Inside, the screen real estate is enormous and the materials are a clear step above the price-equivalent Tesla or BYD product.
The 7X handles better than a 2.3 tonne SUV has any right to. On track at The Bend the air suspension and the body control held up impressively.
Cartell Assessment
ZEEKR has the brand problem to solve, not the product problem. The 7X is genuinely competitive on the metrics that matter: range, charging speed, build quality and feel. The question is whether Australian buyers are ready to pay BMW money for a badge they have not heard of.
AU Outlook
7X pricing in Australia starts in the mid-$60k bracket for the RWD Long Range and climbs into the mid-$80k for the Performance AWD. Verify the exact spec sheet and drive-away figures with the ZEEKR Australia configurator.
