Zeekr 7X launches at The Mall Athens with pop-up and test drives

Zeekr, the premium EV brand from Geely Group, showed the new 7X at a pop-up inside The Mall Athens yesterday around noon. Shoppers can get right up to the car and book test drives alongside the Zeekr 001 and Zeekr X, with the brand saying all models are ready to order in Greece, starting at €34,990.

What do residents gain from Zeekr’s entry?

The pop-up adds another option to Athens’ growing EV scene, mixing modern tech with a focus on safety. Press info says Zeekr models carry up to a 10-year warranty and have five stars in Euro NCAP and Green NCAP, covering what city drivers ask about most: efficiency, protection and reliability.
