Zeekr announces Australian specs and pricing for Zeekr X

GLOBAL PREMIUM ELECTRIC MOBILITY BRAND, ZEEKR HAS announced the Australian pricing and specifications for the highly anticipated Zeekr X. Making a splash at the brand’s debut in the Australian market, the Zeekr X is the first model to be launched by the brand in this region. Built on the Sustainable Experience Architecture (SEA), the Zeekr X promises an unrivalled balance of design, technology, driving dynamics, performance, and safety, along with an enviable range and fast charging capabilities.

This cutting-edge electric vehicle is now available for presale exclusively through zeekr.au, where early buyers can take advantage of an exclusive pre-launch offer. For any expression of interest submitted through the Zeekr.au online configurator on a Zeekr X (all variants) made before 31st October 2024, and upon vehicle purchase, customers will receive a 12-month unlimited charging subscription through a Zeekr charging partner, offering convenience and freedom to charge their vehicle at no additional cost. Additionally, each purchase includes a complimentary 7kW Zeekr home charger. Terms and conditions apply.

The Zeekr X is a global premium compact SUV designed for urban lifestyles and modern megacities. It is compact on the outside yet spacious and luxurious on the inside, making it the perfect companion for adventurers seeking new challenges and environments to explore. Utilising Zeekr’s state-of-the-art electric motor and battery technology, the Zeekr X offers a remarkable balance of long-range, high efficiency, and excellent performance. Its 66kWh lithium-ion battery, strategically placed beneath the floor to enhance interior space and lower the vehicle’s centre of gravity, delivers up to 540km of range (ADR 81/02) in the rear-wheel drive (RWD) standard model. The battery, which benefits from an eight-year/160,000km warranty, will be recycled in line with global directives at end-of-life.

The Zeekr X models feature a 66kWh battery with 150kW DC charging capability, replenishing the battery from ten to 80 percent in less than 30 minutes. The standard 7.2kW AC on-board charger can fully charge the battery from empty in about eleven hours for the RWD model, and about seven hours with 11kW for the AWD model.

 

The Zeekr X’s intelligent, 5G-enabled digital cockpit offers cutting-edge technology and a wealth of connected features. At its core is a Qualcomm 8155 chip that ensures super-fast responses and exceptional functionality, with over-the-air software updates improving the system over time. The infotainment system is enhanced by the Zeekr Voice Assistant, which uses natural voice commands to control various vehicle features, such as navigation, climate, and media playback. The model also includes several predefined convenience modes, such as Theatre Mode and Pet Mode, and a security feature known as Sentry Mode that creates a video of the area around the vehicle if suspicious activity is detected.

Available for purchase in two performance variants: RWD and AWD. The Zeekr X RWD model is priced at $56,900 (including GST), offering a well-balanced blend of power and efficiency. The AWD model is priced at $64,900 (including GST), providing enhanced all-wheel-drive capabilities for those seeking more traction and power.

Optional upgrades include the Convenience Package (available for RWD only and standard on the AWD) for $4000, and the Interior Colour Package for $500.

Further details on dealer appointments will be announced in the coming weeks, giving customers the opportunity to experience the Zeekr X firsthand. Customers can pre-order the Zeekr X on Zeekr Australia’s official website, zeekr.au.

With its competitive pricing and premium features, combined with the new offer, the Zeekr X is poised to become a game-changer in the Australian EV market.
