Video Summary
Here’s a summary of the video:The tester enjoyed the Zeekr 001 EV, but noted that it was his opinion. The front end of the car, borrowing heavily from the Lynk & Co brand, stands out on the road. The interior, however, is visually overwhelming to him, feeling "brutal" with too many different textures, materials, stitching, and patterns. The materials feel high quality, but it just didn't resonate. Driving is zippy and exciting with instant feedback from the accelerator, sporty handling, and cloud-like suspension. The car’s starting price is 290,000 RMB, or $43,000 USD for the single-motor RWD. To add air suspension would be an extra 28,000 RMB, around $4,200 USD. The top-tier dual-motor AWD is 368,000 RMB, or $55,000 USD. The top-tier model has automatic door handles, air suspension, and Yamaha speakers. The standard version can go 0-100 km/h in 6.9 seconds; the two-motor version does it in 3.8 seconds. The voice control, however, did not function well during the test drive. Voice control was not consistently recognized, and the air conditioning has a low-energy mode to conserve the battery. The lead time is 3-4 months, but 8-10 months with air suspension.
