Zeekr X the electric vehicle (EV) revolution is in full swing, and Geely’s premium sub-brand Zeekr is making a bold statement with its compact luxury electric SUV – the Zeekr X. Set to disrupt the urban EV space, the Zeekr X blends sharp styling, cutting-edge technology, and impressive performance in a package that’s already creating waves globally. As Indian EV enthusiasts eagerly await its arrival, here’s everything you need to know about the Zeekr X.
Bold Design That Stands Out
The Zeekr X doesn’t just play it safe—it dares to be different. With a futuristic yet sporty design language, the SUV features sleek LED lighting, flush door handles, and a minimalist silhouette that echoes Scandinavian aesthetics. Its aerodynamic profile not only looks good but also improves efficiency, a must-have trait for any EV.
Sitting on Geely’s Sustainable Experience Architecture (SEA) platform, the Zeekr X offers a short overhang and a long wheelbase, giving it a planted stance and ample cabin space despite its compact footprint.
Performance & Powertrain: Compact but Mighty
Don’t let its size fool you—the Zeekr X packs serious performance. It comes in both rear-wheel-drive (RWD) and all-wheel-drive (AWD) configurations. The AWD variant features a dual-motor setup producing up to 422 hp (315 kW), allowing it to sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.8 seconds—a figure that challenges many sports cars.
For city drivers and daily commuters, the RWD single-motor version offers a balanced blend of power and range, with a still-impressive 0-100 km/h time of 5.8 seconds.
Battery, Range & Charging
The Zeekr X is equipped with a 66 kWh lithium-ion battery, promising substantial real-world usability. The WLTP-certified range is up to 445 km, depending on the variant and driving conditions. Whether you’re zipping through city streets or heading out for a weekend road trip, the Zeekr X ensures you’ll rarely experience range anxiety.
When it’s time to recharge, fast-charging support is available. With a 150 kW DC fast charger, the battery can go from 10% to 80% in under 30 minutes. It also supports Type 2 AC charging for convenient overnight home charging.
Tech-Loaded Interior
Step inside, and you’re greeted by a tech-first, minimalist cabin that feels both futuristic and premium. Highlights include:
14.6-inch floating touchscreen infotainment system
8.8-inch digital driver display
Augmented reality head-up display (AR HUD)
Premium sound system by Yamaha
Panoramic glass roof
Face recognition-based user profiles
The Zeekr X also boasts advanced driver-assist features like adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, blind spot detection, and a 360-degree camera system, pushing it closer to semi-autonomous driving.
Mileage & Driving Experience
While EVs don’t have “mileage” in the traditional sense, the Zeekr X’s efficiency is rated at around 15 kWh per 100 km, making it one of the more efficient electric SUVs in its class. This makes it a cost-effective daily driver, especially when paired with renewable energy sources at home or work.
The ride quality is smooth and quiet, with responsive steering and agile handling that make it ideal for urban environments. Thanks to the SEA platform, it offers excellent balance and weight distribution, enhancing driving confidence.
Top Speed
The Zeekr X doesn’t just get off the line quickly—it can reach a top speed of 190 km/h, making it a well-rounded performer both in city traffic and on highways.
Expected Price in India
While Zeekr hasn’t officially announced Indian pricing yet, market analysts estimate the Zeekr X will be priced around ₹40–₹45 lakh (ex-showroom), placing it in the premium EV segment. This pricing reflects its luxury features, powerful drivetrain, and tech-loaded cabin.
Launch Date in India
Geely has ambitious global expansion plans for its Zeekr lineup, and India is on the radar. While no fixed launch date has been confirmed, industry insiders expect the Zeekr X to arrive in India by late 2025 or early 2026. It may enter via the CBU (completely built unit) route initially, followed by local assembly based on demand.
The Zeekr X is more than just a new EV—it’s a statement. With eye-catching design, exhilarating performance, and future-forward tech, it’s clear why this compact SUV is turning heads around the globe.
