2025 Zeekr 7X launched in Malaysia – Model Y, Sealion 7, G6 rival, up to 646 PS, 615 km WLTP, from RM179.8k

You saw it at the Malaysia Autoshow 2025 and at paultan.org‘s Premium Auto Car Expo (PACE); now the Zeekr 7X has finally landed in Malaysia officially, in RM179,800 RWD Standard Range, RM190,800 RWD Long Range and RM226,800 AWD Performance variants. Prices are OTR before insurance. Over 1,000 bookings have been received for the 7X to date, according to Zeekr Malaysia, and the waiting period is now 3-4 months. Customer deliveries are to start mid-September.

Its competitors are the likes of the Tesla Model Y (RM195k-242k), BYD Sealion 7 (RM188k-204k) and Xpeng G6 (RM169k-189k). The 800-volt Zeekr 7X is 4,787 mm long, 1,930 mm wide and 1,650 mm tall, with a 2,900 mm wheelbase.

The two lower variants share the same 421 PS/440 Nm rear-mounted electric motor and six-second 0-100 km/h time, but the Standard Range uses a 75 kWh LFP battery (480 km WLTP) while the Long Range has a 100 kWh NMC battery, making it the range king (615 km WLTP) of the three variants.

The Performance has two motors making 646 PS and 710 Nm of torque altogether, so it does the century sprint in just 3.8 seconds. The Performance has the same battery as the Long Range, but because it has more, erm, performance, range drops to 543 km WLTP.

In terms of charging, the Zeekr 7X can swallow up to 22 kW AC across the board, but the Standard Range, having the smallest battery, is the fastest-charging variant. It’ll get from 10-100% in 4.5 hours (an hour faster than the other two) at 22 kW AC, and can take up to 450 kW DC (30 kW more than the other two), enabling it to get from 10-80% in a crazy 10.5 minutes (16 minutes for the RWD Long Range and AWD Performance at 420 kW DC). All variants have 3.3-kW vehicle-to-load (V2L).

The Standard Range’s suspension consists of front double wishbones and a multi-link rear, paired with 19-inch multi-spoke alloys wrapped with Continental EcoContact 7 rubber. LED headlamps, daytime running lights and tail lamps are also standard, along with RGB dynamic ambient lighting. There are 36 cabin storage areas, including two underneath the rear bench. Also on are frameless doors and an interior occupant monitoring system (OMS) camera.

Other items on the base variant include a powered tailgate, a panoramic glass roof with powered sunshade, a manually-adjustable leather steering wheel, leatherette upholstery, powered front seats with memory, powered rear seats with 10-degree backrest adjustment, a 13.02-inch digital instrument cluster, a 16-inch centre touch-screen with a 3.5K mini-LED display (Qualcomm 8295 chip), 10 speakers, three-zone climate control as well as wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay.

The Long Range gets additions such as a power-adjustable steering wheel, front seat ventilation and massage, a 36.21-inch augmented reality head-up display, 21 Zeekr Sound Pro speakers (including headrest speakers) and dual 50-watt wireless phone chargers.

But it’s the AWD Performance that has all the bells and whistles, including 20-inch multi-spoke alloys covered in Michelin Pilot Sport EV tyres, orange Akebono front four-piston brake callipers, orange rear callipers, single-chamber air suspension with continuous control damping, powered doors (which none of its rivals get), full-grain Nappa leather upholstery and powered rear side window sunshades.

The highlight of the top-spec car is the Zeekr Stargate Integrated Smart Light Curtain, which features 1,831 LEDs on the front panel above the headlamps that are customisable to show different patterns. Text is not available for now (Zeekr Malaysia is working to get authorities’ approval) but this could arrive as an OTA update later. By the way, the AWD Performance has an illuminated Zeekr logo in the middle of the Stargate; the other two variants have no Stargate, so they have a regular Zeekr logo on the bonnet.

Safety? No matter which variant you choose, you get seven airbags, ACC, lane centring control, lane keep assist, auto lane change, AEB with forward collision warning and mitigation, parking emergency brake, door open warning, blind spot monitoring, rear collision mitigation support, front and rear cross traffic alert, driver monitoring, automated parking assist, a 360 camera with transparent chassis and sentry mode.

There are five body colours – Crystal White, Onyx Black, Tech Grey and Forest Green are available for all variants while Brook Blue with a silver roof is an AWD Performance-exclusive (RM3k option). As for the interior, black is standard, but the AWD Performance can be had with a purple and white cabin. The range-topping variant can also be specced with 21-inch forged alloys for RM14.8k.

Warranties? Five years/150,000 km for the vehicle and eight years/160,000 km for the high-voltage battery. Buyers get a free 22 kW wallbox and solar tint, plus one year free connected services to access the Zeekr App, onboard navigation and OTA updates – beyond this, customers may extend at extra cost (prices yet to be determined). Without data connectivity, App Controls will not work and OTA will only be possible via Wi-Fi.

There’s also an eight-litre in-car fridge (-15 to 50 degrees Celsius) that the first 500 customers will get as an early bird gift, which is, for now, not available for new customers. It’s a plug-and-play accessory that slides into the drawer at the back of the centre console.

      The prices in OZ of 57,900, 63,900 and 72,900 are before OTR costs which can amount to circa AUD 6k.

      The prices in Malaysia and Australia are comparable IMO.

      Zeekr 7X current price: 229k to 269k+ yuan
      (about RM 134k to RM158k)
      the AWD with CCD suspension is more comfortable!

      Zeekr 009 current price: 439k to 469k+ yuan
      (about RM 258k to RM 276k+)

      The price is not doubled, the price is not 1:1.
      Best value is Zeekr 009, more comfortable, more spacious.
      Hyper

      The Carro-Zeekr Malaysia is building excellent case.

        dont bluff, I live in Shanghai and have family there. return once a while for visa break and see your bul s h i t. We buy zeekr very cheap and byd and all other very cheap. even the xiaomi is just RMB170k and high spec the ultra well is RMB400k for below 2 sec i accept that. we dont say yuan in China just outsider say yuan we say qian or kuai or renminbi for large amount pls. dont spread fake idea. National car in China is way too cheap. at RM230k you van buy xiaomi ultra or BYD YangWang lux brand.

    • thats y i say ev is all mid low level class consumer upgraded from very cheap car. they never drive a bmw or merc or other high quality conti car before especially the bmw 5 series since F10 generation. then suddenly with their limited budget they enter the so call quality world and have a chance to taste so quality that luxury car owner tasted since 20 years ago and now they simply say wow the quality is OUT OF THIS WORLD! lol.how cheap is that? not even spending 5 years with the car and out of this world..even Chinese consumer long for the German car and learn and copy from German and USA and now suddenly …out of this world..that alone tell about the customer class and target market. Lux brand driver dont even say their rolls royce or bentley or BMW or Merc OUT OF THIS WORLD they just diam diam pakai lor..we knw the quality is good China worked hard to please customers but come on the brand is not time tested yet not even 20 years on Market and we know quality deteriote with time and surviving the test of time is another thing where brands like toyota, honda, nissan, BMW, Merc, Audi have at least survived thats why they command higher price. it is easy to give everything when communist gov giv heavy subsidy to company. look at douyin and bilibili and see China customer shout at the brand quality.

        ccp cars are roughly half the price of germans so the very fact that people are directly comparing both is already a win for china .

    they should make a LR version with all the bells & whistles of the Performance. not many need that fast acceleration but longer range & extra features are always sought after. heck, I would definitely buy if later they make it because I need the 615 WLTP but I also want all the extra features of the Performance, minus the extra motor

    It is unthinkable that today, car buyers are swooning over Chinese-made cars and are prepared to pay a substantial amount for them. I recall a decade ago, when I was contemplating getting a Haval SUV (yes, Haval was selling back then), and all my friends said I was crazy. Anyway, I still see many of them on the roads today.

    • A mate is still daily driving his 10 years old Haval M4. He said everyone called him crazy for choosing an unknown Chinese brand over Perodua and Proton of the time. I guess he got the final laugh because his M4 didnt have any major issue in 10 years. We often joke he was the best spokesperson for Haval in our town.

      if today’s models impress you, wait till the latest ccp cars arrive which have 1000hp and 1000kw charging and price below 50k usd. that will really block the socks off bashers like peppa and sabri

  • a very good car overall, too bad the light curtain for the top spec adds zero value, chinese companies should consider cutting down on these lame gimmicks

    Only 4 months to go before the duty exemption for CBU EVs end, then prices will more than double. If you want one, don’t wait too long.
