ZEEKR 007 - a PROPER drivers car for ex-petrolheads?

Finally - an EV which isn't boring. Which isn't focussed on 0-60 times BECAUSE THATS BORING. The ZEEKR 007 is one EV you should be excited about coming into your markets soon.

Presenting a car with the name "007", you really missed the opportunity to introduce yourself like: "My name is Richards, Elliot Richards"

Strange that Zeekr think that we want a small boot opening instead of a hatch like Polestar 2; Maybe it is cheaper / stronger that way, or do people really want small boot openings?

I foresee EVs to become more “boring” as autonomous driving improves. People will be more interested in the interior for lounge like comfort instead of exterior and performance. Especially with the new generation that’s not keen on driving like we used to be.

@dougowt Ай бұрын

While I'm sure that will be true of many family orientated vehicles, just look at the popularity of SUVs (Slow, Unwieldy, Vehicle), there is every reason that as batteries become lighter and the performance and efficiency of ever lighter motors improves, fun will definitely remIan available for those that want it. You only have to look at the aftermarket options today, to see there is definitely a market for those that enjoy driving.

It should also come in an estate/wagon/kombi version. Would really like to see a review of this version as I find the rear of this car ugly. An estate car would also be more popular in Europe, as we like practical cars.

@LaloSalamanca13 Ай бұрын

It has Emily GT from Trollhättan + some Lucid Air design. Which is fine. If I could get my hands on this at this price point in Europe, I would not hesitate to buy one.

If there's one segment that hasn't been touched upon enough yet, it's the sub-1000kg EV, certainly there's a plethora of examples in China. **Writing to Santa** _I wish I wish Stellantis will pull its nose out of its own A-double-S and build a true and honest EV Citroën 2CV for the 21st century. Amen!_

Saab?!? Where did you get that from Eliot? The designers may be from Sweden but there are no similarities to the “Emilia”. The 007 will, whatever we think about it, will be a good platform car for other “coach builders” Lotus, Volvo, Polestar, Mercedes/Smart (and other Geely brands (too many)).

Never been a fan of light coloured seat belts. Seat belts are dirt and grease magnets, especially where kids are concerned - think jammy sandwich hands or ice cream. The colours (look) great, but (aren't) terribly practical. Having to regularly scrub them clean would grow old pretty quickly.

@hharry5315 Ай бұрын

European car reviewers have overlooked one important point when evaluating Chinese cars. Most of them include on-board intelligent systems and automatic driving assistance systems, which are much ahead of European cars. Maybe because they don't know how to use the Chinese system.

You need to talk less in superlatives and more in actual useful information. ‘Unique armrest’? But WHY? And you’re praising the driving dynamics like ten times, without even saying ONCE what makes it so good! 😅

@dougowt Ай бұрын

I think you are being a little hard on the EV experience. Yes there are a lot of family EVs that are good at the day to day without exciting the driver, but that was true of the average family car when everything was ICE powered. Its true that we haven't seen enough of the GTE, GTi, Abarth, Brabus kind of treatment as yet, but I'm sure as energy density of batteries helps EVs become lighter than their ICE equivalents and motors will continue to get lighter and more efficient, the option to have quick and enjoyable EVs will get easier and cheaper. Of cause we will also need designers and manufactures to be willing to spend time and money on the dynamics and feel of the car, which given how easy it is to distribute the weight in an EV should in time become vastly superior to any ICE powered car. PS Please, no more fake engine noises and pretend gearboxes.

when you can source your component close to you and lower cost for components to reach your factory(good infra and good gov planning in section out industrial areas) with automated manufacturing that can work nonstop 24/7 without the need of large workforce, you can save quite alot on upkeep and making sure everything is as efficient as possible can really keep your cost low. and of course there's no union sucking up your cost@@anton_grahn
