Performance
The Zeekr 009 ME Edition packs an impressive punch with a maximum power of 400 kW (544 hp / 536 bhp) and a commanding total torque of 686 Nm (506 lb-ft). This high-performance machine can sprint from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) in just 4.5 seconds, and it reaches a top speed of 190 km/h (118 mph), making it a standout in its class.
Battery, Range, and Charging
The high-capacity battery has a gross capacity of 140.0 kWh and a net usable capacity of 134.0 kWh, providing a 6.0 kWh buffer (4.3%) for battery protection. With a nominal voltage of 370 volts, the system is classified as a 400-volt battery system, aligning with industry standards. This Lithium-Ion battery utilizes NMC (Nickel Manganese Cobalt) technology.
The vehicle’s range, according to the CLTC (China Light-Duty Vehicle Test Cycle) standard, is 822 km (511 miles). he energy consumption is 16.3 kWh/100 km based on the CLTC standard test. For more details about the range, see real-world data and range listings on this model’s range and consumption page.
The vehicle supports fast DC charging with a maximum power of 200 kW. Charging from 0% to 100% takes approximately 81 minutes, while a more typical scenario from 10% to 80% takes 38 minutes with an average charging speed of 147 kW. Considering an additional 5 minutes for each charging stop due to driving interruptions, the optimal charging range is from 6% to 53%. This results in an effective charging speed, including time lost, of 144 kW, with each charging session taking about 26 minutes and 11 seconds.
In a theoretical 1000 km challenge, starting with a full battery and maintaining a constant speed of 120 km/h (75 mph) under ideal conditions with an assumed consumption rate of 28 kWh/100 km, the trip would take approximately 9 hours and 21 minutes. This journey would require two charging stops from 4% to 59%, with a total charging time of 62 minutes.
Onboard Charger
The onboard charger supports up to 11 kW for Level 1 and Level 2 AC charging. This allows you to fully charge the battery from 0 to 100% in approximately 12 hours and 10 minutes using a home charging setup.
