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.

Zeekr is bringing its 7GT station wagon to Europe, banking on a formula that's proven in China: practical proportions, clean design, and competitive pricing. The wagon segment is starving for alternatives in Europe, and a Volvo-adjacent player with real engineering backing might actually fill that gap. Don't sleep on Chinese manufacturers who've spent a decade perfecting execution.

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.
