Zeekr X up to $7000 cheaper with price cuts

The price of the Zeekr X small electric SUV has been slashed by up to $7000, depending on the variant.

The entry-level Zeekr X RWD now starts at $49,900 before on-road costs, which is $7000 less than it was. The optional Convenience Package is still available with this variant for an additional $4000.

The flagship Zeekr X AWD, on the other hand, is now priced from $62,900 before on-roads, making it $2000 more affordable than it was.

“This repositioning reflects our strategy to align with market trends and to ensure that Zeekr remains at the forefront of the electric revolution,” said Zeekr Australia general manager William Zhou.

“As we look to the future, this move sets the stage for the introduction of new, innovative models that will further elevate the Zeekr driving experience.”

To lessen the blow for previous Zeekr X buyers, existing owners of AWD and RWD vehicles will be offered free servicing for three years and five years respectively.

Local deliveries of the Zeekr X started last year, though it only began reporting sales through VFACTS this year.

So far this year, Zeekr has sold a total of 179 examples of the X. For context, Volvo sold 385 examples of the EX30, which is based on the same Geely SEA platform, over the same period of the time.

Although the X was the Chinese brand’s first model to launch locally, it wasn’t alone for long. The hulking 009 electric people mover has also arrived in Australia, and the 7X mid-size electric SUV is set for release in late 2025.

Part of the Geely Auto empire, which also includes brands like Volvo, Polestar and Lotus, the Zeekr brand was established in 2021, and has been busily expanding its global reach. It now sells vehicles in over 40 markets.
