After facelifting several models in China, Zeekr is now getting ready to unveil yet another one: the compact-sized crossover known simply as the X. It should be fully unveiled before the end of the year, but let’s take a look at these images provided by CarNewsChina first.
If anything, it looks like the refreshed Zeekr X hasn’t changed much at all compared to its predecessor. The exterior styling is just about completely the same, and early patent data suggests that the car is still 4,450 mm (173.8 inches) long with 2,750 mm (107.4 inches) between the axles.
Inside, the biggest addition is a traditional center console housing two wireless chargers. The pre-facelift Zeekr X had a tricky two-tier armrest there that bridged the space between the seats and the dashboard. Perhaps the owners didn’t particularly appreciate the experimental design. Some trim seems to be new, and the rear row occupants get extra climate vents mounted at the rear end of the console.
The most important improvement comes in the form of a battery pack called Zeekr Energee. The automaker promises to “drastically improve the range” without quoting any figures. The current version of the SUV ships with batteries sized either 49 or 66 kWh and gets from 420 to 560 km (261–348 miles) per charge based on other parameters.
The power output of the current version varies from 272 PS (268 hp / 200 kW) to 428 PS (422 hp / 315 kW). Prices in China range from 149,000 to 199,000 CNY.
