The Zeekr 003 (BX1E) is a convenient all-electric SUV available this year. This vehicle is geared toward the European market.
According to CarNewsChina, Zeekr wanted to emphasize their intentions, so they shared images of the 003 experiencing road tests in Europe. Let’s get to them.
Zeekr is a luxury electric brand
Geely Group‘s Zeekr is a luxury electric brand. Its current model lineup consists of the Zeekr 001 and the Zeekr 009 MPV.
They are both on the SEA platform. Zeekr expects to sell over 70,000 electric vehicles by 2022.
It plans to penetrate the European market this year. The forthcoming 003 SUV has a good chance of becoming Zeekr’s top-selling EV in Europe.
Zeekr 003 features
The Zeekr 003 was previously known as the BX1E code.
It is a small electric crossover built on the SEA platform. Because of the LED operating light units mounted on the 003’s front end, its exterior design is reminiscent of Lynk & Co vehicles. Overall, the 003’s exterior has a Sci-Fi feel to it.
Its measurements and powertrain are still unknown.
The Zeekr 003 has a sporty roof spoiler, two independent taillight units, and a tiny windshield wiper at the back. It’s also worth noting that its glass area is small.
We can also guess the 003’s body and wheelbase length. It will be approximately 4380 mm long. The wheelbase will be around 2750 mm. As a result, it is 110 mm longer than Smart #1 on the same wheelbase.
The Zeekr 003 is expected to be released in H1 2023. The actual car appears to be displayed at the Shanghai Auto Show in April this year. Following its debut in China, it will also be available in Europe. More on the Zeekr 003 as it becomes available.
