Updated Zeekr 007 announced with improved driver assistance system

Following the updated Zeekr 001 station wagon, the Chinese company is preparing a new generation of the 007 model. This year, the electric car will receive a 900-volt architecture, a new computing platform from NVIDIA, and a redesigned driver assistance system.

The key change will be the transition to a 900-volt electrical system, as in the new Zeekr 001. This means faster charging and the potential for increased electric motor power. Along with it, the car will feature a new NVIDIA Drive Thor-U chip with 700 TOPS performance, replacing the pair of Orin X chips. It will form the basis for the next generation of electronic assistants and real-time data processing from all of the car's sensors.

The Geely Afari Smart Driving (G-ASD) system, a new version of ADAS, will run on this platform. It combines data from cameras, radars, lidars, navigation, and driver monitoring systems to change lanes more accurately, behave more confidently in difficult situations, and improve its algorithms over time. Among the announced features are navigation through multi-level underground parking lots, recognition of barriers and exits from highways, as well as more predictable performance in heavy city traffic.
The base version of the Zeekr 007 will retain a 75 kWh battery with a range of up to 688 km according to the CLTC cycle, while the higher-end version will get a 100 kWh battery with a claimed range of 870 km. The all-wheel-drive version will have a power output of 475 kW and accelerate to 100 km/h in approximately 4 seconds.

The updated version is scheduled for release in the second quarter of 2026. Prices in China are expected to range from $30,000 to $43,000, depending on the version and configuration.
