New Zealand distributor for Chinese brand Zeekr,\u00a0NordEast<\/a>, has completed its launch portfolio with confirmation of pricing and specification for the new 7X SUV.<\/p>\n

\"Zeekr
\nNew 7X was launched in Auckland last week.<\/p>\n

Zeekr is part of the Geely group, which NordEast also represents through Geely-branded models<\/a>, Volvo<\/a>, Polestar<\/a>, Lotus<\/a> and Farizon.<\/p>\n

Zeekr is performance\/luxury focused. While 7X will not be the most expensive vehicle in the local Zeekr lineup (that’s the 009 super-luxury people mover), it’s certainly the hero model for the brand: the newest with the latest technology, including a “golden battery” that is future-proofed with 800v architecture and can charge at up to 450kW (much faster than DC technology currently available in NZ).<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Zeekr 7X is a game-changer for NZ drivers,” says brand manager Michael Jones. “With global sales of more than 520,000 vehicles, Zeekr has quickly established itself as one of the most innovative and successful premium electric brands in the world.”<\/p>\n

The 7X will be available in in an entry RWD model at $69,990, Long Range for $79,990 and the Performance AWD at $94,990.<\/p>\n

The RWD and Long-Range models have a single 310kW\/440Nm motor in the rear axle, with estimated range figures of 480km and 615km respectively. The\u00a0Performance model makes 475kW\/710Nm.<\/p>\n

\nRWD models use Zeekr’s ‘Golden Battery’ with ultra-high-speed charging.<\/p>\n

The RWD uses Zeekr\u2019s Golden Battery, a 75kWh pack, while Long Range and Performance models have a 100kWh\u00a0pack.<\/p>\n

“The 7X enters the mid-sized premium SUV segment, which is now the largest premium segment in the country,” says NordEast general manager Dane Fisher. “It’s [also] just surpassed 50% full electric penetration. So there’s never been a better time to launch a car like the 7X.”<\/p>\n
