Zeekr X officially launched in Malaysia – from RM155,800

Zeekr Malaysia has officially marked its entry into the local EV market with the launch of two new models: the Zeekr X and the 009. Both models were opened for orders earlier in October.

The X is offered in two variants, the Premium priced at RM155,800 and the Flagship AWD priced at RM172,800.

These prices include a five-year/150,000 km vehicle warranty and an eight-year/160,000 km battery warranty. Owners will also receive two years of complimentary connected services offering 6GB internet data.

To further sweeten the deal, the first 500 owners will receive an exclusive package that includes a home charger, protable charger, solar film, and sunshade cover.

Like the smart #1/#3 and the Volvo EX30, the X is built on Geely’s Sustainable Experience Architecture (SEA) platform.

With dimensions of 4,432 mm in length, 1,836 mm in width, and 1,566 mm in height, it is longer than the #1 and the EX30 but its width and height are quite similar to those of the EVs from smart and Volvo.

In terms of mechanical specifications, the Premium variant is powered by a rear-wheel-drive electric motor with an output of 268 hp, achieving 0-100 km/h in 5.6 seconds.

The Flagship AWD variant features two electric motors that generate 422 hp, allowing it to reach the same speed in just 3.8 seconds.

Both variants come with a 66 kWh battery pack that offers a range of 440 km based on the WLTP cycle. They support DC fast charging at 150 kW, which can restore energy from 10% to 80% in 30 minutes.

The safety system includes ADAS features such as adaptive cruise control (ACC), automatic lane changing (ALC), lane keeping assist (LKC), lane departure warning (LDW), forward collision mitigation support (FCM), rear collision mitigation support (RCM), and front (FCTA) and rear (RCTA) traffic crossing assistance.

Additionally, there are seven airbags, a 360-degree camera system, and a digital video recorder.

For the Malaysian market, the X is available in Crystal White, Mist Grey, Grid Grey, Palace Beige, and Pine Green. The cabin space can be had in either Charcoal Black or Stone Grey.
