On June 1, the Zeekr 001 WE model with a 1,032 km CLTC cruising length used to be delivered on the CATL headquarter in China. The automobile is supplied with CATL’s CTP 3.0 Qilin batteries. Consumers can make a selection from two battery capability configurations of the WE model: 100 kWh battery capability (741km, 6.9s) begins at 300,000 yuan (42,300 USD) and 140 kWh battery capability begins at 403,000 yuan (56,900 USD). Zeekr is a emblem below Geely.
Previous in August 2022, CATL introduced that it will spouse with Zeekr to manufacture it the primary car emblem to be supplied with industrially produced Qilin batteries. With that, Zeekr 001 was the sector’s first industrially produced type supplied with Qilin batteries in a position to outputting a CLTC cruising length of greater than 1,000 km.
Moreover, on Might 26 this future, a Chinese language netizen posted on Weibo an latest battery age analysis video of the Zeekr 001 WE model. The netizen adjusted the breeze conditioner within the automobile to 23 levels Celsius and the power cure stage to low. He drove from Golmud, Qinghai Province next returned again. He drove the car till the battery used to be utterly exhausted, with none charging midway, which lasted 11 hours, and on the similar while, handed via a prime altitude section of greater than 3,000 m.
The knowledge confirmed that this Zeekr 001 has an latest battery age of 922.9 km, together with 714.2 km on highways, 208.7 km on nationwide highways and towns, with a mean pace of 79 km/hr and an power intake of 14.7 kWh/100km.

In March of this future, Qilin batteries formally accomplished accumulation manufacturing.
The 140 kWh battery model’s rear motor incorporates silicon carbide generation, which advanced the CLTC cruising length via 38 km. This model additionally has 3 adjustable power cure ranges of low, medium, and hight methods.
Prior to now, on Might 16, the Zeekr 001 WE model formally began supply, with a battery capability of 140 kWh. Zeekr Auto said that the type remains to be being delivered and the flow supply knowledge can’t be disclosed but.
