Zeekr 7GT Debuts in Europe With Record-Breaking Charging Speeds

Zeekr 7GT

A New Electric Wagon Takes Aim at Europe’s Premium Segment

The European love affair with station wagons is far from over — and Zeekr is betting big on that fact. The newly launched Zeekr 7GT marks the brand’s latest European debut, positioning itself as a high-tech, luxury electric wagon designed to lure buyers away from established names like BMW and Mercedes-Benz.

While design, performance, and luxury all play their part, the real headline feature of the Zeekr 7GT is its industry-leading charging speed — currently unmatched by any EV sold in Europe.


Record-Breaking Charging: 480 kW Changes the Game

Most electric vehicles on European roads still rely on 400V electrical architectures. The Zeekr 7GT skips that entirely and uses an advanced 800V platform, enabling ultra-high charging power.

Zeekr 7GT Charging Performance

Battery 10–80% Charging Time Peak Charging Power
75 kWh 13 minutes Up to 480 kW
100 kWh 16 minutes Up to 480 kW

According to Zeekr, just 10 minutes of charging adds up to 340 km of range, regardless of battery size. This is currently the fastest charging capability available on a production EV in Europe, directly addressing one of the biggest barriers to EV adoption: waiting time.


Range Figures: Competitive, Not Extreme

While the Zeekr 7GT does not claim the longest range on the market, its fast-charging capability significantly reduces real-world anxiety.

WLTP Driving Range

Version Drivetrain WLTP Range
Base battery RWD 519 km
Long Range RWD 655 km
Performance AWD 558 km

In practice, the ability to recharge so quickly makes these numbers easier to live with than longer-range cars that charge slowly.


Performance: Wagon With Supercar Acceleration

Zeekr clearly wants the 7GT to feel as fast as it looks.

Performance Specifications

Version Power 0–100 km/h
RWD Single motor 5.3 seconds
AWD Dual motor 636 hp
AWD acceleration 3.3 seconds

All versions are electronically limited to 210 km/h, more than sufficient for European autobahns and highways.

Interior: Luxury Meets High-Tech Convenience

The Zeekr 7GT’s cabin is designed to compete directly with premium German estates.

Interior Highlights

  • Automatic doors (Privilege trim)

  • Massive 35-inch head-up display

  • Nappa leather upholstery

  • Panoramic glass roof

  • Premium sound system

  • Air suspension on top trims

The automatic doors are a standout feature, allowing the driver to open or close doors for passengers without leaving the seat — a rarity even in the luxury segment.


Scandinavian Design for European Tastes

Despite being part of the Geely portfolio, the Zeekr 7GT does not look stereotypically “Chinese.” That’s because it was designed in Sweden, sharing visual DNA with the Zeekr 7X crossover.

The design philosophy is:

  • Clean and restrained

  • Minimalist surfaces

  • Premium, understated elegance

This helps the 7GT blend seamlessly into European streets, appealing to buyers who want something refined rather than flashy.


Pricing and Availability in Europe

Zeekr has priced the 7GT aggressively, undercutting many premium rivals while offering more technology.

The Zeekr 7GT represents a new phase of competition in Europe’s EV market:

Thanks to its 800V architecture and 480 kW peak charging, the 7GT can add 340 km of range in just 10 minutes, challenging BMW and Mercedes with premium features, strong performance, and aggressive pricing.
