JAKARTA - Chinese car manufacturer Zeekr has postponed the launch of the updated 007 electric sedan until the second quarter of 2026.

Quoting from the CNevpost page, Tuesday, October 28, it was revealed that the reason for the brand from China was because it would prioritize the delivery of current models.

Earlier on October 20, Zeekr started pre-sales for the updated Zeekr 7X, with its market launch scheduled for the same 28 months.

The updated Zeekr 007 will feature interior and exterior detail adjustments, while maintaining a series of driver, battery, and powertrain systems.

In specifications, for Zeekr 007, it is currently built on an 800-volt high voltage architecture and offers CLTC coverage of up to 870 kilometers. The sedan is capable of charging from 10 percent to 80 percent in just 10.5 minutes and reaches an acceleration time of 0-100 km/hour for 2.84 seconds.

To boost sales, Zeekr currently offers purchase incentives for Zeekr 007, including interest-free financing for 5 years.

As is known, Zeekr 007 was originally launched in December 2023 as the first model of a brand targeting mainstream EV markets.

Then in August 2024, Zeekr launched Zeekr 007 2024 which displays faster charging speeds and enhanced driver assistance capabilities.

In August this year, Zeekr announced it would update four models starting from Zeekr X SUV, Zeekr 007, Zeekr 001 shooting brake, and Zeekr 7X SUV at the end of the year.
