The 2027 Zeekr 7X electric SUV features a few minor exterior and interior tweaks, as well as a more powerful set of electric motors.
Visually there’s little to distinguish the 2027 model from earlier iterations. Those with eagle eyes might notice the revised front air intakes, narrower active grille shutter and redesigned rear diffuser.
The rear licence plate has been moved from the bumper to the tailgate, and a new colour scheme has been added: Tech Grey paint for the lower body with a black roof.

The three-tier model structure, as well as the pricing, are unchanged. The RWD model kicks things off at $57,900, the Long Range RWD sits in the middle with a $63,900 sticker price, and the Performance AWD tops things off at $72,900. All listed prices exclude on-road costs.
All three models have updated motors, boosting power by 25kW and torque by 80Nm. Battery specs are unchanged, with the RWD supporting DC fast charging up to 450kW and the other models going up to 420kW. AC charging maxes out at 22kW.
Australia, as well as Europe, misses out on the 900V electrical architecture used in models sold in China. Locally-delivered 7X SUVs continue to be fitted with a 800V system instead.
Despite the improved performance, the WLTP range ratings have improved marginally.
