First Drive ZEEKR 009 - BEST Family EV? Review // CHINA DRIVER

Ойын-сауық

ZEEKR kindly lent me the 009 for a day to see if it can survive being a family runaround for the day when we visit a mushroom farm in Shanghai.
ABOUT ME: I'm Elliot, I love cars and love driving. I have been living in China for a while and want to share the cars that are only available in China to a global audience. I hope you enjoy watching the video as much as I enjoy making it! Any suggestions for cars you would like me to test next, pop it in the comments :)
*I am not being paid by anyone, not the manufacturers or the rental company, to make this video.

    Second row seats look very similar to the ones in Maxus Mifa 9 - and also the center console. Thank you for yet another great video!

    I used to own am imported Toyota Alphard in the UK, this looks a brilliant EV equivalent, and I think quite a bit cheaper than top of the range Alphard.

    4:11 - this is NOT an MPV (like the Mazda 5, or the Mitsubishi Spacestar), this is a MINIVAN. And every mininvan has a boot/trunk/cargo area/cargo space, e.g. Honda Odyssey, KIA Sedona (Carnival), Chrysler Pacifica, Dodge Grand Caravan, Ford Freestar and Toyota Sienna. (most of these are North American models)

    I know in China they starting to call (fully featured) front passenger seat as "queen" seat, on this car maybe it's called "backup chauffeur" seat 😂 Nice review btw.

    Why can't the roof make higher by 6" more for easier ingress? Especially for last row passenger. And why can't we have a third row door? So that the last row passenger do not have to bow every time they want to get into / get out of the car? If not a proper door maybe we can look at how mazda rx8 rear door was designed. It won't be very expensive to design & produce it.

    How can chinese brands always manage to make luxury cars look cheap? Its like they successfully copy some luxury european vehicle silhouette they saw on a magazine but they only have some cheesy early 2000’s grills and headlights laying around in an abandoned FAW warehouse to put on them…
