WATT WE THINK — SO FAR

The 7X looks like one of the more complete new-generation electric SUVs: genuinely rapid, technically ambitious and much more polished than its price might suggest. Our own early drive supports the view that this deserves serious COTY attention. The formal WattCar score still waits for controlled Australian testing.

WATT REALLY MATTERS

Can its extraordinary charging specification translate into a genuinely quicker Australian road trip when the available charger is the limiting factor?

THE KILLERWATT

Would we actually buy it?

YES — PROVISIONALLY.

THE BOTTOM LINE

On the evidence so far, absolutely a car we could spend our own money on. The research score is a preview, not the COTY verdict.

Research basis: Zeekr specifications; CarExpert 7X reviews and long-term reporting; GoAuto; current Australian market data. Scores are WattCar editorial research previews, not reproduced ratings from those publications.
