the nissan leaf is a joke compared to this, especially when the zeekr X only priced at $26K USD. Actually I went and test drove all Chinese EVs available just two weeks ago, I was blown away by how good they are, and how much value for the money they offer. For instance, the zeekr 001, which was one of my favorites, you're basically paying $50k for a car with features, build quality, and performance equivalent to a $200k car, if not better. this is subjective comparison is based on my personal experiences living in the states and owning cars from toyota, lexus, bmw, mercedez, and a tesla, and test drove enough of what the US car market has to offer. And I regret buying my second tesla in China back in 2021, if I would've just waited couple more years I'd be able to choose one from all these amazing new selections of EVs.
