Three variants with different battery options

The updated 7X will be offered in Max, Max+ and Ultra configurations.

The rear-wheel-drive Max uses a 75kWh battery and a 370kW electric motor. It has a claimed CLTC range of 620km.

The Max+ introduces the new 85kWh battery, increasing its claimed range to 680km. Buyers can also opt for a 103kWh battery, which raises the claimed range to 802km.

At the top of the range, the all-wheel-drive Ultra uses the 103kWh battery. Its dual-motor setup produces 585kW, allowing it to accelerate from 0–100km/h in 2.98 seconds. Its claimed CLTC range is 715km.

Charging and battery technology

The 75kWh and 85kWh battery options use Geely’s Golden Brick battery technology. Both support peak charging rates of 5.5C, allowing a 10% to 80% charge in approximately 10.5 minutes.

The larger 103kWh battery comes from CATL’s Qilin range and supports a 6C charging rate. Zeekr claims it can charge from 10% to 80% in around 10 minutes.

Driver assistance and equipment

The 2027 7X receives Geely’s G-ASD 4.1 driver assistance system as standard equipment. The system supports navigation-assisted driving between parking spaces and includes a roof-mounted LiDAR sensor.

Other standard equipment includes active road noise cancellation, electromagnetic damping and a tyre-blowout stability system.

Inside, the main dashboard design remains largely unchanged. However, Zeekr has added zero-gravity front seats for improved seating comfort.

The updated model also introduces two new exterior colour options.

Dimensions and sales performance

The 2027 Zeekr 7X measures 4,825mm long and 1,930mm wide. It has a wheelbase of 2,925mm.

The current 7X has been an important model for the brand. Zeekr delivered 86,806 units between January and September, accounting for approximately 30% of its total deliveries.

September alone contributed 12,041 units.

The unchanged starting price and additional battery option give the updated 7X a revised lineup. However, the introduction of the new model could also affect the resale values of existing 7X units.
