Zeekr X
Yet another Chinese EV brand eyes up the UK – but this one claims to be European
The Zeekr X isn’t just another Chinese EV. That’s what the very European executives were trying to make clear to me over dinner, anyway.It’s built in China, yes, but it was designed by a German, engineered in Sweden and developed on European roads. Does the nationality of a car maker mean anything anymore, anyway?After all, most of the Jeeps sold in Europe are about as American as a spaghetti western. The thing is, in every car I’ve driven from an obviously Chinese manufacturer, I’ve noticed a certain unfinishedness, even the ones that we like.So does that lack of polish afflict this second car from Zeekr? Let’s fine out…
