A blank cell below means we don't have that figure, not that the car scores badly on it. We leave them empty rather than estimate, so any row where one car is blank isn't a like-for-like comparison yet.

RRP, before on-road costs. Checked 6 Sept 2026
No published drive-away price on our record.
About $346 a week in repayments ($79,900 RRP, before on-road costs; assumes $5,000 deposit, 5 yrs at 7.5% p.a.). An estimate, not a loan offer.
Zeekr 7X RWD
$57,900
RRP, before on-road costs. Checked 15 Oct 2026
No published drive-away price on our record.
About $245 a week in repayments ($57,900 RRP, before on-road costs; assumes $5,000 deposit, 5 yrs at 7.5% p.a.). An estimate, not a loan offer.
The Zeekr 7X starts $22,000 lower on RRP.
Both models currently qualify for the electric-vehicle Fringe Benefits Tax exemption (battery-electric and under the $91,661 threshold; battery-electric and under the $91,661 threshold), which applies to salary-sacrificed novated leases.
Matching the Zeekr 7X's standard equipment means adding extra-cost options to the BMW iX2, and one is priced only inside a package whose price the manufacturer doesn't publish, so the true gap is larger than the sticker difference suggests.
On-road costs (stamp duty, registration, CTP and dealer delivery) depend on your state and the dealer; ask for a written drive-away price before you sign.

Equipment few rivals have, on either carShowHide
Drivetrain
The BMW iX2 uses a Electric producing 230kW and 494Nm of torque, sent through a auto to a AWD layout. It covers the 0-100km/h sprint in 5.6 seconds.
The Zeekr 7X responds with a Electric making 310kW and 440Nm, paired to a automatic driving the rear wheels. It gets to 100km/h in 6 seconds.
The Zeekr 7X has the clear power advantage at 310kW vs 230kW. In the 0-100 sprint (manufacturer-claimed), the BMW iX2 is 0.4s quicker. For most buyers, the way each car feels day-to-day matters more than outright acceleration.
Battery: 64.8kWh (BMW iX2) vs 75kWh (Zeekr 7X), giving WLTP ranges of 410km and 480km. DC fast charging peaks at 130kW (BMW iX2) vs 450kW (Zeekr 7X).
Space & Comfort
The BMW iX2 measures 4,554mm long on a 2,692mm wheelbase, 233mm shorter than the Zeekr 7X at 4,787mm (2,900mm wheelbase). The longer wheelbase on the Zeekr 7X generally means more rear legroom.
Boot space is 525L in the BMW iX2 and 539L in the Zeekr 7X, giving the Zeekr 7X a 14L advantage.
Neither U-turns in one sweep on a 7 m local street (both need a three-point turn); the Zeekr 7X's turning circle is 1.0 m tighter, 11.6 m against 12.6 m kerb to kerb. The street estimate is indicative, worked from the published turning circles.
Cost to own
At 15,000 km a year, electricity for the BMW iX2 costs about $970 a year (20.2 kWh/100km) and electricity for the Zeekr 7X about $816 a year (17 kWh/100km), at $1.90 a litre and 32c a kWh. That is $154 a year less for the Zeekr 7X.
Warranty: 5 years / Unlimited (BMW iX2) and 5 years / Unlimited (Zeekr 7X).
Where each one leads
The BMW iX2: nothing in the figures we hold puts it ahead of the Zeekr 7X.
The Zeekr 7X: the lower starting price ($57,900 against $79,900), more power (310kW against 230kW), the bigger boot with the seats up (539L against 525L) and lower fuel or energy costs on our assumptions ($816 a year against $970).
The Verdict
Zeekr 7X scores higher, 75 vs 65
The Zeekr 7X scores 75 to the BMW iX2's 65 on the CarSorted Score, and leads 9 of the 10 spec rows that separate them, at the lower price. The biggest gaps: safety (Zeekr 7X ahead by 27 points), energy efficiency (Zeekr 7X ahead by 21 points), value (Zeekr 7X ahead by 9 points). At 15,000 km a year, electricity for the Zeekr 7X costs about $154 less (17 kWh/100km against 20.2 kWh/100km, at 32c a kWh).

How to read this page. Prices, specifications, ANCAP ratings, warranty, the CarSorted Score and the verdict come from our records for the grades shown, sourced from the manufacturers' Australian documents, and change when those records change; the date each was last checked is printed under the headline. Prices are recommended retail prices before on-road costs unless marked drive-away. A plug-in hybrid's fuel figure is labelled with its basis: with a full battery (the certified combined figure) or as a hybrid (battery depleted). Charging and running costs are estimates on the stated assumptions. Always confirm price and specification with the manufacturer or dealer before you buy.
