A Sneak Peek at the Zeekr 7X: Unveiling Road Test Images in Europe
A set of uncamouflaged road test images of the highly anticipated Zeekr 7X in Europe has recently surfaced, giving enthusiasts a glimpse of what to expect. The Zeekr 7X, a mid-sized crossover SUV, is slated for an official launch in European markets in 2025, although a specific timeline has not been disclosed. This vehicle made its debut in China in September 2024, with a price range of 229,900 yuan to 266,900 yuan (equivalent to 31,700 USD to 37,000 USD).
From the road test images, it is evident that the overseas version of the Zeekr 7X maintains a design closely resembling that of the domestic model. However, notable differences include the absence of the integrated light strip and LiDAR technology found in Chinese market variants. The test vehicle also showcases a newly designed six-spoke wheel, adding a touch of sophistication to its exterior. The dimensions of the Chinese model measure 4825/1930/1656 mm, with a wheelbase of 2925 mm, and it is expected that the European version will closely mirror these dimensions.
While interior images of the overseas version have not yet been revealed, it is anticipated that the European Zeekr 7X will stay true to the minimalist and modern design language of its Chinese counterpart. Features such as a floating central control screen, a panoramic sunroof, and rear-seat multimedia screens are expected to be included in the European model. With a spacious 616-liter rear trunk and a 62-liter front trunk, the Zeekr 7X offers ample storage capacity for everyday use.
Performance and Specifications
The Zeekr 7X is constructed on the SEA modular architecture, which serves as the foundation for various Geely EVs, including the Zeekr 001 and Zeekr 007. Offering both rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive configurations, this vehicle comes equipped with an 800V high-voltage platform for enhanced performance.

It remains to be seen whether the overseas version of the Zeekr 7X will undergo additional adjustments to cater to the preferences of local markets. Given that the starting price of the Chinese model is 229,000 yuan (31,700 USD), it is expected that the European pricing will be notably higher due to transportation costs and EU taxes.
For context, the Zeekr X starts at 149,000 yuan (20,500 USD) in China, while the European version is priced at 44,990 euros (equivalent to 344,000 yuan or 47,500 USD). With the higher initial price point of the Zeekr 7X in China, it is anticipated that the model will be positioned above the smaller Zeekr X in terms of pricing.
