Hoe is het vergeleken met de BYD

As I travel around China, I get to see and try different EVs from different Chinese EV companies. The zeekr cars are absolutely some of my favorites both inside and out. I would swap my Merc with it in a heart beat.

Those Zeeker specs are mouth watering .

Thanks for this great channel ! YES !! Zeekr 007 baby ! !

I'm hoping zeekr will launch in thailand too, they have recently spotted polestar being tested on our roads

Same to Singapore but no zeekr 001 yet, Zeekr X and their Mpv 009 only. My country car sales prices are crazy ..sadly. My wishlist is 001 & 007... 😅

Great cars. Neely doing great work. I will be very keen to see what they offer.

I doubt the Zeekr 009 will sell much. But zhe 007 and 001 if priced sharply should do very well Volvo ex30 will also do very well. Polestar will continue to do decent numbers in 2024

i want the zeekr x

Whoo! I heard from others that they were recruiting but it wasn't confirmed. I love the X. Will they bring the Radar as well?

Thoughts on this Vs the xpeng X9?

the best world would be to continue intense ICE engine tech advancement to lower and lower emissions to discover new ways to remove dangerous fumes. keep everyone happy and possibly discover other co2, carbon capture technology! YES i keep tellin the viking to understand this current world will NEED, MUST HAVE both technologies existing for SO MANY REASONS its almost impossible to list them all!

It’s about a year since hearing about the zeekr001 hoping someone will come to their senses and release the model in Australia, partner has ‘23 model Y she loves it so do I but finally Geely is making good. Can’t wait!

recently moved to gold coast from china. to be honest, Australia is not the perfect place for EVs. I have a tesla M3P in China and a Model Y here in Australia. Back in China, I can drive from east China to Tibet in my Model 3 P with no problem of charging. There are just more than enough charging station all across the country. In my city (hangzhou if anyone know where it is) alone, there are more than 300 charging stations.But here in Gold Coast, there are only 2 tesla superschage, and 5 or 6 charge fox stations. Believe me, I love Australia, it is a great country in many many ways! But I hope there can be more charging stations. Now I won't even consider driving to Sydeny or up Queensland with an EV. As for zeeker, I know this brand because its headquarter is located 500 meters from my old apartment in China. I have 3 neighbors who have 009. According to them, it has one of the best second row seats, but it is not a fun car to drive. In additon, zeekr is still working on its L2. Maybe we can see a 009 with a lidar late this year. sorry about the grammar.

Love the Zeekr 001 design...but it looks like they've pinched some angles from a Porsche Macan????

Our neighbour had been talking about buying an EV for quite a while as he planned to do most of his charging at home off peak just off a normal power point. I suggested getting an electrician to check the house wiring first as our houses were built in 1980. He didn’t do that nor did any research but went ahead anyway with the purchase of an ATTO 3. Big problem straight away, circuit breakers kept popping and they can’t use anything electric (jug, toaster, etc) in the house if the car is on charge. An electrician came and to set the house up was going to cost $12000 plus extra for some kind of a “box” (no idea what it is). I can drive my 15 year old Corolla for 12 years on that… So the ATTO 3 turned out not to be the cost saver he thought. Felt sorry for him and got my neices boyfriend (electrician) to do a quote and he did the job for $9500.

I wonder if MPVs are popular in Australia. Much better use than SUVs

Hi Sam. So disappointed that Zeekr are not concentrating on a vehicle as an alternative to the Tesla Model Y. In my opinion, sedans are not really wanted and as for the Zeekr 009 I wouldn't want something as ugly as that. I think the same about the BYD Seal. Beautiful car and highly impressive especially at the price point but again, it's a darned sedan. The most popular EV worldwide is the Tesla MY and the reason is, it's the perfect size and format for the majority of drivers. Come on Zeekr, bring on a mid sized SUV that is affordable to more people and you may have a customer in me.

What about Zeekr X? A more compact & fancy one. And, as Model Y's comparable competitor, BYD Seal Lion is about to be released.

Zeekr 001 is very good car I seen Swedish test but be aware it very dangerous as it is right now, it will suddenly pull to right or left and will crash into car next to it and it will use lots of force also. I am sure they will fix it but for now be careful.

A hire car driver's dream. But why does a people mover need to do 0-100km in 4.5 secs? In fact when are EV makers going to get over this sort of acceleration "party trick"? With such a vehicle surely efficiency is the priority?

Guess zeekr 001 will be much more expensive than in China.

The Australian car market is wide open for affordable Chinese electric vehicles. European and Teslas are too expensive.

Not available in the US. Not interested.

700km CLTC, the model Y long range also has a 688km CLTC range that equals 498km EPA, so that 700km equals 507km EPA - from a 140kwh battery - that's 3.6km per kwh 2.2miles per kwh EPA let alone real world. That is terrible efficiency. To put that into perspective the Model Y LR has 9km less EPA with a battery a little over 1/2 the size.
