Zeekr 7X gets faster motor and better battery in China than Australia

China's 7X gains a new 85kWh battery option and more powerful motors than the Australian version.

The Chinese-market 7X has received upgrades not sold in Australia. A new 85kWh battery sits between the 75kWh and 103kWh options in China.

The dual-motor version makes 585kW of power versus 500kW in Australia's Performance model. The Chinese car hits 0 to 100km/h in 2.98 seconds; Australia's takes 3.7 seconds.

Damping control is now standard. The Chinese model also includes active sound cancellation that Australian buyers won't get.
