en.Wedoany.com Reported - Zeekr has officially initiated its new model update plan for 2026 and 2027, with the first model to complete the upgrade being the Zeekr X compact SUV. As a product launched in 2024, the Zeekr X has undergone market testing and now welcomes crucial technological and configuration iterations, aiming to enhance its product competitiveness in the face of intense competition in the luxury compact SUV market.
In this facelift, the technological upgrades for the base rear-wheel-drive version are particularly significant, with the core change being the integration of Zeekr's signature "Golden Brick Battery." This battery system supports DC fast charging up to 230kW, drastically reducing the charging time from 10% to 80% to just 18 minutes. Regarding powertrain performance, the electric motor power has been increased by 50kW across the entire lineup, resulting in a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 5.6 seconds for the rear-wheel-drive version, while the all-wheel-drive version achieves it in just 3.7 seconds. Notably, the all-wheel-drive version retains the original battery pack, which has a charging power of 150kW and a charging time of approximately 30 minutes.
In terms of configuration and interior, the new Zeekr X has undergone multiple optimizations. The vehicle is equipped with an active safety suite comprising 5 cameras, 5 radars, and 12 ultrasonic sensors, supporting automatic parking functionality. For interior design, the original floating center console has been replaced with a more luxurious bridge-style center console. The top-tier all-wheel-drive version adds front seat massage and an onboard refrigerator, while offering two new color options: Khaki Green Matte and Onyx Black, along with 20-inch wheels and automatic door options. The base model gains heated seats for both front and rear rows and a 13-speaker Yamaha audio system.
In addition to the Zeekr X update, Zeekr has announced its subsequent global product layout. In the Australian market, the launch of the new 7X midsize model has helped the brand double its market share. Looking ahead, Zeekr plans to introduce the 8X plug-in hybrid SUV, which will have its international debut at the Beijing Auto Show in late April. Subsequently, the 7GT station wagon is expected to arrive by the end of this year, while the flagship SUV, the 9X, is scheduled for a 2027 launch. For its existing product line, Zeekr will launch the 009 Grand version in China. This vehicle features a four-seat VIP layout with rear entertainment screens, aiming to compete with the Lexus LM.
