[@JZ2445]

Thanks for sharing the sights of Dingqian Lake and the breakfast is as good as anywhere in the world. These cars just look amazing and seem very solid. I was in love with the 007, but seeing the 001, what a choice. I would definitely consider these two. Everything about them is subtle.

[@LudicrousFeed]

Yeah we were treated to warm hospitality by our Chinese hosts wherever we went 🙏 The 001 and 007 were definitely my favourites

[@johnharris4600]

Oh yes I love the 007. I really hope that one comes here.

[@raymondw999]

Very cool - thanks Tom and Riz

[@LudicrousFeed]

Pleasure!

[@davec110]

The Zeekr 007 is cheaper than the Seal in China. It's directly competing with the Xiaomi SU7 spec for spec. This is why the 007 out sales the Seal by a large margin. If Zeekr bring those cars here at around $10kAUD mark-up compared to the Chinese retail price it would be a game changer.

[@LudicrousFeed]

Yeah I’m super curious to see how they price against the Model Y

[@johnharris4600]

Wow Tom beautiful video quality looks like you had a great time, the Zeekrs are beautiful aren't they, lovely footage of them too beautiful video quality, I love that green Zeekr x and I particularly like the no door handle versions ,nice and clean, don't think we'll get them in Australia though we have to have the door handle ones but here's hoping we don't have to,. regards John

[@LudicrousFeed]

Thanks! Well there is a chance we’ll get the button push because as I said in the video, it reminded me of the Ford Mustang Mach E which has a similar door mechanism: 2024 Ford Mustang Mach-E Premium Walkthrough and Test Drive Australia kzbin.info/www/bejne/nZrZYYZtgq94aJo

[@protonjicari5990]

I see the Zeekr 009 as the best family vehicle. Not necessarily a people mover or airport transport really.

[@LudicrousFeed]

Yeah that would be a plush ride to drive the fam around

[@lavectech]

The 001 looks good yeah

[@LudicrousFeed]

👍

[@matthiasedwards294]

Fantastic video. Car wise it looks great but the missing door handles are a dealbreaker for me. I don’t want to rely on electricity to open doors. Maybe I am too old for that. I am all for innovation and pushing boundaries but for me in an emergency I want people to know how to get me out without thinking. 😅 Again great innovative car overall.

[@LudicrousFeed]

That’s a good point re: safety and access for first responders

[@orza1]

Love the Zeekr X’s exterior design. Things get strange from there though… the boot floor looks like you could almost lower it but for a bulge in the front left corner, shame as it’s a very small boot. Also not convinced by the button press doors but keen to see it for myself

[@LudicrousFeed]

Door mechanism reminded me very much of the Ford Mustang Mach E: 2024 Ford Mustang Mach-E Premium Walkthrough and Test Drive Australia kzbin.info/www/bejne/nZrZYYZtgq94aJo

[@belincentgidke4536]

Breakfast, OMG!

Both offer a choice of LFP and NMC.

Would be intereeted to see the Jaecoo J6 EV, looks awesome

[@LudicrousFeed]

I don’t recall seeing this one in China …

[@Scotty_AU]

[@Yenhongsin77]

@@LudicrousFeed it hasn't release even in china, it just chery invite a lot of dealer and media around the time of beijing auto show so a lot of video about jaecoo j6 exist in youtube

@@_Sensei_8 oh nice thank you

[@maxstechnology6363]

Is it still a possibility that the 007 can come to Australia or has it been ruled out? 😢

[@LudicrousFeed]

Never say never!

[@moekyoame]

Zeekr’s biggest problem is that the ADAS, which uses Mobileye’s tech, is pretty useless, and their own ADAS, which started with the 007 project, is still being developed.

[@LudicrousFeed]

Oh dear that’s not good. Fine tuning ADAS is so important in 2024+

[@chrisnewman7281]

is there any talk about thezeekr X coming with one pedal driving?

[@LudicrousFeed]

Will need to confirm this

[@moekyoame]

Therefore, for the EU, this is also why they have no choice but to impose a tariff on Chinese EVs.

[@LudicrousFeed]

Yeah Chinese EV pricing is unbeatable currently

[@moekyoame]

@@LudicrousFeed No offense, but there is always a common misunderstanding about Chinese EVs, which is that they can only produce cars with lower prices. However, as you have already checked out EVs from Zeekr, you would know that the build quality, the tech within the car, the connectivity to the phone, the ADAS and the basic specs of the car itself are all excellent. I don't think any other car makers can make such a high-quality car at an affordable price.

[@LudicrousFeed]

@@moekyoame It’ll take a generation for people to get accustomed to Chinese made goods. I always remember that joke from Back To The Future about goods that were Made In Japan when Marty went to 1955 … 😅

[@moekyoame]

@@LudicrousFeed So I deeply appreciate the efforts of individuals like you in introducing these Chinese EVs without any bias.

[@robanzzz5124]

do you know if BYD are bringing in electric SUV to Australia? I am primarly interested in the seal premium (For the extra range) but i think i'd be happier with an SUV but it depends on its range and price point really.

[@LudicrousFeed]

Hopefully we’ll see the full BEV Sea Lion 07 enter overseas markets

[@robanzzz5124]

@@LudicrousFeed is there an idea as to if this is coming to Australia and a possible relase date for it ?

[@TassieEV]

Not sure I like the push buttons to open the doors, those with mobility issues may not get these doors open. I do like the rear where the button is to open it higher up and cleaner than down low as most are. I do worry about motorised charge port cover another thing to break and if it breaks and need a charge could be stuffed. We also have to remember ADR's are not something etched in stone they are a changeable thing and probably just takes industry and political pressure as long as it isn't a blatant safety issue.

[@LudicrousFeed]

Let’s hope many of these features seen in the China versions are allowed to pass in overseas markets

[@mixalis6168]

Wonder cost in AUD for 001, 007 ? I would if i could buy this 001

[@LudicrousFeed]

001 retails in China from US$37,500 007 from US$29,000

[@mixalis6168]

@@LudicrousFeed Imagine if the AUD pricing was good, wow ~~ I seen them in Thailand, think they are stunning cars !

[@maxgill5620]

Tom, Not quite shore about the doors without handles as you seem to touch the door skin a lot and also no drink bottle spot inside of door. Just being a little picky as this internal layout reminds me of Polestar layout not being quite right

[@LudicrousFeed]

We also saw Polestar 4 coming off the assembly line at the Intelligent Factory …

[@addsfour3499]

Wish the 001 was coming to oz. Did i see 3.3 sec 0-100?

[@LudicrousFeed]

The AWD 001 can achieve 0-100kph in 3.8s according to EV Database

[@addsfour3499]

[@damianotoole8770]

Does your Tesla seem a bit outdated now?

[@LudicrousFeed]

Yeah the design does somewhat

[@beanoyip06]

Pity the 001 isn’t coming to Australia.

[@LudicrousFeed]

Great shame

[@jansenwilder1335]

I'm surprised the right hand drive 001 isn't plan for other countries...

[@dann5515]

Did you just fly over to China with China visa free or you went before is an official?

[@LudicrousFeed]

We were all advised to apply for a Visa for this trip. I travelled on an “M” trade/commercial Visa

[@Dreamer10888]

Can we expedite launch of 001

We need to all give this feedback to ZEEKR

Can't say I'm a fan at the moment

[@LudicrousFeed]

Fair enough 🙏 It’ll appeal to some

[@reventonrowe6111]

Yeah dunno. Looks so busy and unnecessarily complicated inside and out. You would definitely want a 10 year warranty with these.

[@LudicrousFeed]

I don’t know of any cars with 10 year parts warranty …

[@_Sensei_8]

@@LudicrousFeed since October 2020 the Mitsubishi AU brand-new vehicles come with a 10-year warranty. in USA Hyundai, KIA, Genesis, Mitsubishi all come with a 10-year warranty
