Zeekr is shaking up the Australian electric vehicle (EV) market by slashing prices on its stylish Zeekr X electric SUV. With price reductions of up to $7,000, this premium EV just became a much more compelling choice for buyers looking to make the switch to electric, especially with new models on the horizon.

Big Savings on Zeekr X RWD and AWD Models
Effective immediately, both the rear-wheel drive (RWD) and all-wheel drive (AWD) variants of the Zeekr X have received significant price cuts:
| Zeekr X Variant | Old Price | New Price | Savings |
|---|---|---|---|
| Zeekr X RWD | $56,900 | $49,900 | -$7,000 |
| Zeekr X AWD | $64,900 | $62,900 | -$2,000 |
These changes position the Zeekr X more competitively in the $50,000–$60,000 range, putting it in direct contention with Tesla, BYD, and other popular EV brands.
Why Zeekr Is Dropping Prices Now
Zeekr’s decision to cut prices comes strategically, just ahead of the upcoming Zeekr 7X—a larger, more powerful model expected to debut by the end of 2025. The brand is making room for its next wave of electric SUVs while reinforcing its value proposition in a competitive market.
According to William Zhou, General Manager of Zeekr Australia:
“This repositioning reflects our strategy to align with market trends and to ensure that Zeekr remains at the forefront of the electric revolution.”
Bonus for Early Adopters: Free Servicing Compensation
To ease concerns from early buyers who paid higher prices, Zeekr is offering a generous free servicing package as compensation:
- RWD owners: 5 years of free scheduled servicing
- AWD owners: 3 years of free scheduled servicing
This move not only shows good faith but also reinforces Zeekr’s long-term customer commitment.
What Makes the Zeekr X Stand Out?
Beyond the price drop, the Zeekr X brings a lot to the table:
- Premium interior and tech features not typically found in its price bracket
- Sleek, futuristic design that turns heads on the road
- Impressive performance with both RWD and AWD options
- A strong alternative to more mainstream EVs like the Tesla Model Y and BYD Atto 3
What’s Coming Next from Zeekr?
The price reduction is just the beginning. Zeekr has its sights set on expansion in the Australian market, with the Zeekr 7X set to arrive by late 2025. This upcoming SUV will offer more space, power, and luxury—perfect for families or drivers looking for a larger premium EV.
Why Now’s the Time to Buy a Zeekr X
If you’ve been considering going electric, there may never be a better time. With lower starting prices, premium features, and compensation for early adopters, the Zeekr X is now one of the most appealing EVs in Australia’s mid-range market.
