The Zeekr 001 is the low-slung, performance-minded EV that hustles through corners with sports-car flair, while the Zeekr 7X swaps that sass for SUV practicality — higher seating, more space and a family-first footprint. If you crave sharp handling and a headline-grabbing design, the 001 is your ticket; if you need room for kids, kit and everyday usability, the 7X is the smarter, less theatrical choice. Both deliver class-leading electric tech, so it boils down to whether you want to thrill the driver or save the day for the family — either way, you’ll look good doing it.
