Geely's Zeekr brand dropped the 7GT wagon in Europe with peak 480kW charging—fastest in the segment, technically. Problem: it's still a Chinese EV fighting for credibility in markets that don't know the brand. Charging speed is table stakes now, not a differentiator.

Geely's premium EV brand is shipping a dual-motor sedan with real performance numbers—0-60 in 4.5 seconds, 400+ horsepower—for under £40k. That's the actual problem for Munich: not that Zeekr exists, but that the spec-to-price math makes the G20 340i look expensive and slow. Chinese OEMs have stopped playing catchup.

SAIC's Z7 doesn't hide what it's doing: wagon body language lifted straight from Porsche's playbook, undercut pricing that makes the Taycan look premium, and now a stretched cargo version spotted in testing. Chinese EV makers have moved past homage into straight iteration—and it works.
