Price Breakdown

The Zeekr 7X starts from $57,900 before on-road costs, while the Deepal E07 opens at $64,900. That makes the Zeekr 7X the more affordable entry point by $7,000.

Once you factor in stamp duty, registration, CTP insurance, and dealer delivery, expect to add roughly 8-12% on top of the RRP depending on your state. That puts estimated driveaway prices in the ballpark of $63,690 and $71,390 respectively.

Both models qualify for Fringe Benefit Tax (FBT) exemption, which is a significant advantage for salary-sacrificed novated leases. Depending on your tax bracket, this can save $5,000-$15,000+ per year compared to an equivalent ICE vehicle.

Safety Rundown

ANCAP safety ratings have not been published for both models yet. We will update this section when crash test results are available.

Feature Showdown

The Zeekr 7X features a 16-inch touchscreen paired with a 13-inch digital dash, while the Deepal E07 gets a 15.4-inch display. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard across both.

The Zeekr 7X stands out with panoramic roof that you will not find on the Deepal E07. The Deepal E07 counters with head-up display, heated front seats, ventilated seats, power tailgate and Sony audio. Which feature set matters more depends on your daily routine and priorities.

Drivetrain

The Zeekr 7X uses a Electric producing 310kW and 440Nm of torque, sent through a automatic to a RWD layout. It covers the 0-100km/h sprint in 6 seconds.

The Deepal E07 responds with a Electric making 252kW and 365Nm, paired to a automatic driving the rear wheels. It gets to 100km/h in 6.7 seconds.

The Zeekr 7X has the clear power advantage at 310kW vs 252kW. In the real-world sprint, the Zeekr 7X is 0.7s quicker. For most buyers, the way each car feels day-to-day matters more than outright acceleration.

Battery: 75kWh (Zeekr 7X) vs 80kWh (Deepal E07), giving WLTP ranges of 480km and 560km. DC fast charging peaks at 360kW (Zeekr 7X) vs 240kW (Deepal E07).

Space & Comfort

The Zeekr 7X measures 4,787mm long on a 2,900mm wheelbase, 258mm shorter than the Deepal E07 at 5,045mm (3,120mm wheelbase). The longer wheelbase on the Deepal E07 generally means more rear legroom.

Boot space is 539L in the Zeekr 7X and 524L in the Deepal E07, giving the Zeekr 7X a 15L advantage.

For towing, the Zeekr 7X leads with a 2,000kg braked capacity vs 1,500kg. That 500kg difference matters if you regularly hitch up.
