On July 8, the Zeekr 9X five-seat version opened for presale and is expected to gradually arrive in stores in late July.

The Zeekr 9X five-seat version has body dimensions of 5239×2029×1819mm, with a wheelbase of 3169mm. The main change in the five-seat version is the removal of the third-row seats, changing the cabin layout from 2+2+2 to 2+3. After removing the third row, rear legroom increases by about 120mm, and cargo volume rises from 470L in the six-seat version to more than 1000L, expandable to 2100L with the rear seats folded.

The vehicle offers second-row dual Eames lounge chairs and dual zero-gravity seat modes, and the second-row seat track travel has been lengthened, with a greater maximum recline angle for the backrest.

The Zeekr 9X five-seat version is equipped with the Qianli Haohan intelligent assisted driving solution, offering two intelligent driving systems, H7 and H9, with lidar as standard. For body safety, it features the Haohan safety armor, adopting a four-in-one integrated body structure, paired with safety protection designs exclusive to hybrid models.

The Zeekr 9X five-seat version comes standard across the lineup with a 900V high-voltage hybrid architecture and 6C ultra-fast charging, taking about 9 minutes to charge from 20% to 80%.

In terms of chassis, it is equipped with closed dual-chamber air suspension, dual-valve CCD electromagnetic damping, and a 48-volt active stabilizer bar, offering 10 all-terrain driving modes and an intelligent crosswind stabilization control system.

Xiao Tang's view: The Zeekr 9X five-seat version retains the powertrain, chassis, and main configurations of the six-seat version, and only redesigns the interior space by adjusting the seat layout, thereby gaining more generous rear legroom and larger cargo volume. Its target user group is relatively clear, namely consumers who do not have high demand for multi-passenger travel but value rear-seat comfort and storage capacity. With the six-seat version already achieving good market performance, the launch of the five-seat version is more like a precise supplement for specific needs rather than a replacement choice for everyone.
