ZEEKR 7X Official Price & Limited-time Reservation Benefits

At the press conference, ZEEKR Intelligent Tech CEO An Conghui first announced the good news that ZEEKR 7X, from pre-sale to official launch, received over 58,000 orders in 20 days, confirming ZEEKR 7X's strength as a mainstream market benchmark. To create the best SUV in the new energy era, ZEEKR 7X starts from the actual needs of Chinese users, does not follow the inertia of the existing market, does not innovate away from user needs, but pursues the paranoia of ultimate safety! In terms of design, it returns to the most classic SUV styling, without a coupe-like design, giving users the large space that an SUV should have; in terms of the three-electric performance, ZEEKR's unique "three 800 full ecological solutions" lead the 800V era comprehensively; in terms of handling, breaking the height limit of pure electric SUVs, it can handle both urban and off-road terrains, with off-road capabilities comparable to million-dollar luxury off-road SUVs; in terms of luxury, ZEEKR 7X adopts the most effective physical sun protection solution, retains the design of physical buttons, and brings many luxury configurations that were previously only available in million-dollar luxury cars; in terms of safety, ZEEKR 7X introduces four globally first safety features at once, taking ZEEKR-style safety to a new level.

ZEEKR 7X received over 58,000 orders in 20 days from pre-sale to official launch The combination of touch and technology, ZEEKR 7X, is captivating everywhere, luxurious everywhere.

At the press conference, Stefan Sielaff, Global Vice President of Design at ZEEKR, detailed the unique design of the ZEEKR 7X. Different from many pure electric SUVs, the ZEEKR 7X features a non-fastback design with an arc skyline contour as the top line, achieving the best balance between space, luxury, and aerodynamics, maximizing the space of the passenger cabin.

ZEEKR 7X gives back the large space that an SUV should have to users

Redefining pure electric luxury, the ZEEKR 7X adopts the "Hidden Energy" design language, cleverly concealing cutting-edge technology through simple yet sculptural lines. For example, the ZEEKR Stargate integrated smart light curtain, as the finishing touch on the front face, seamlessly integrates the world's longest 93-inch giant screen light strip into the car's exterior design, shaping a new way of interaction; and various sensors and high-tech components of the ZEEKR 7X are also cleverly hidden throughout the body, making the body more elegant and exquisite.

Hidden design of the ZEEKR 7X

In practical combat, creating a "road tank ZEEKR," the ZEEKR 7X is the safest SUV in the new energy era.

Safety is the first standard to test luxury. At the press conference, Zhu Ling, Vice President of Intelligent Technology at ZEEKR, emphasized that ZEEKR-style safety never settles for test conditions but creates a "road tank ZEEKR" in practical combat. Based on Geely's powerful car safety database, ZEEKR customized safety development based on over 50,000 real accident cases, summarizing the riskiest and most challenging conditions, bringing 4 global first safety features to the ZEEKR 7X.

ZEEKR 7X brings 4 global first safety features

The "Dome Armor Body" safety structure design brings 8 times the safety protection of the national standard.

Based on real traffic accident data in China, accidents between passenger cars and trucks are very common, especially side collisions are the most high-risk. Therefore, the ZEEKR 7X has created a "Dome Armor Body" safety structure design, using the industry's most advanced integrated hot gas expansion process, extending 2000 megapascal ultra-high-strength hot-formed steel from the A-pillar to the rear head, with each length reaching 2.35 meters, without any rivets or welds in between, making it the longest integrated hot gas expansion steel pillar in passenger cars to date Not only that, the same 2000 megapascal reinforcement plate is also used in the B-pillar and front and rear doors. The entire vehicle is made of 2000 megapascal ultra-high-strength hot-formed steel, with a total length of over 12 meters, accounting for over 10% of the total weight of the vehicle body, and is standard across the entire lineup, a global first. Building on the "dome armor body," ZEEKR 7X has created an 8-horizontal 9-vertical 10-palace grid collision-resistant structure, coupled with an integrated die-cast aluminum rear body, forming a more powerful 720-degree safety armor to protect the vehicle occupants and battery pack.

Validating safety performance under extreme conditions, in the real-world test scenario of a heavy-duty truck crossroad collision, ZEEKR 7X withstood a side collision from an 8-ton heavy-duty truck traveling at 50 kilometers per hour, with an instantaneous impact force exceeding the national standard by 8 times. The survival space of the passenger compartment remained intact after the collision, providing effective protection for the occupants inside the vehicle.

World's First Child Safety Airbag Smart Seat

To provide children with the safest travel protection, ZEEKR has partnered with top global players in the children's safety field to create the world's first child safety airbag smart seat, and developed an exclusive airbag deployment algorithm that reduces neck bending by over 50% in the event of a collision. Moreover, this seat comes with a built-in ventilation function, seamlessly integrated with the vehicle cabin data through smart interfaces to enable intelligent monitoring of children's status and proactive services.

World's First "One-Click Window Breaker" Driver's Safety Window Breaker

At ZEEKR, safety leaves no room for chance events. In response to vehicle risks brought about by rare extreme weather conditions such as urban flooding, ZEEKR has upgraded safety measures to introduce the world's first "one-click window breaker" function, standard across the entire ZEEKR 7X lineup. With this safety innovation, in emergency situations, triggering the device at the top of the storage compartment under the driver's door panel enables rapid window breaking for escape in milliseconds, even in cases of power failure in water through a fully mechanical trigger mechanism.

ZEEKR's safety measures not only protect users but also benefit the industry. ZEEKR has announced the patent-protected "One-Click Window Breaker" technology, made freely available to the entire industry, aiming to provide more users with protection in emergency situations.

Industry's Highest Standard for Comprehensive Electromagnetic Radiation Safety

Beyond visible safety risks, ZEEKR adopts an almost paranoid level of rigor to address unseen risks. In pursuit of ultimate electromagnetic safety, ZEEKR 7X has established the industry's strictest electromagnetic radiation safety development verification standards and obtained dual certifications from authoritative institutions for passenger electromagnetic protection and vehicle electromagnetic anti-interference safety, namely the NESTA China Automotive Center's "Passenger Electromagnetic Protection Safety" and "Vehicle Electromagnetic Anti-Interference Safety" certifications In terms of passenger electromagnetic protection, whether stationary, accelerating, or charging, the all-scenario electromagnetic radiation safety of ZEEKR 7X far exceeds the industry's highest standards. It also strengthens protection in the rear seats where mothers and babies often sit, with radiation levels equivalent to that of a smartwatch. In terms of vehicle electromagnetic protection, ZEEKR 7X has undergone a 400,000-volt vehicle-grade whole-vehicle lightning electromagnetic safety verification, ensuring safety even when facing a 400,000-volt high-voltage shock.

ZEEKR 7X is the safest SUV in the new energy era.

Starting at six hundred, one charge for a thousand miles, ZEEKR 7X eliminates range anxiety for pure electric SUVs.

To create a pure electric SUV without range anxiety, ZEEKR 7X's sense of security comes from the "three 800s" full ecological solution.
