The Zeekr 009 has been launched in Thailand, several months after the smaller X went on sale back in July this year – both electric vehicles (EVs) were made available for pre-orders since March.
Thailand is getting the 009 in a sole variant called the Flagship AWD which retails for 3.099 million baht (about RM395k). For context, the Zeekr MPV is cheaper when compared to its target rival, the Toyota Alphard and Vellfire that ranges from 4.129 million to 4.499 million baht (RM526k to RM573k).
The Flagship AWD gets dual electric motors that provide a total system output of 612 PS (603 hp or 450 kW) and 693 Nm of torque. Powering the motors is a 116-kWh nickel manganese cobalt (NMC) battery that enables a range of up to 582 km following the WLTP standard, while the 0-100 km/h time and top speed are 4.5 seconds and 230 km/h respectively.
As for charging, the 009 supports DC fast charging at 310 kW, or 5C charging as the company advertises. The “C” indicates how many times a battery can be charged in one hour, and when plugged into an appropriate DC fast charger, a 10-80% state of charge is reached in just 11.5 minutes. This setup is identical to what’s offered in Hong Kong, one of the first markets to get the 009 in right-hand drive guise.
Standard equipment for the Thailand-spec 009 includes air suspension, 20-inch alloy wheels, a six-seat layout (2+2+2) with powered executive lounge seats in the second row, a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster, a 15.4-inch touchscreen infotainment system, a 17-inch rear passenger display, a head-up display, a Yamaha surround sound system, power-sliding doors, two-section panoramic glass roof, a powered tailgate and a suite of advance driver assistance systems.
In terms of colours, there are three offered for the 009 in Thailand, starting with Crystal White that is paired with a black interior, Electric Blue with a black or grey/white interior as well as Phantom Black with a black or blue/white interior. The warranty is five years or 150,000 km for the vehicle, while the motor and battery are covered for eight years or 180,000 km.
The 009 and X are Zeekr models that have already been confirmed for Malaysia but both have yet to be launched here. Thailand is ahead of us by getting both this year, while Singapore welcomed the X last month. It shouldn’t be too much longer before Zeekr officially launches here, so are you looking forward to the fully electric alternative to the Toyota Alphard/Vellfire?
