- The new model borrows elements from the 007 sedan.
- RWD and AWD versions of the EV with 416 hp and 637 hp may be offered.
- The estate should roughly match the 540-mile (870 km) claimed range of the 007 sedan under the CLTC cycle.
Wagons may have fallen out of favor in markets around the world, but Chinese carmaker Zeekr still thinks they have a place, revealing the estate version of its sleek 007. Officially known as the 007 GT, the new model will be launched in China in the second quarter of this year and will also be sold in Europe, where it’ll be badged the Zeekr 7 GT.
Much like the 007 sedan, the GT’s front end is dominated by an LED light bar that encompasses the headlights, DRLs, and can be configured to display text. Changes have been made to the bumper, meaning it now has a pair of vertical air curtains on either side as well as a larger lower grille with vents that can open and close.

The sporty touches continue down the sides of the 007 GT, where there are new rocker panels and edgy new C-pillars. The roofline stretches further back, creating a beautiful Shooting Brake shape. Positioned above the rear window are two aerodynamic fins as part of a small spoiler. Like the sedan, the 007 GT’s taillights are simple LED stripes.
The GT shares its underpinnings with the existing 007. That means it features Geely’s trick Golden battery that supports charging speeds of up to 500 kW, meaning 311 miles (500 km) of range can be added in just 15 minutes. This is made possible in part due to the 800-volt electronic architecture.
Underpinning the 007 is the Sustainable Electric Architecture (SEA), offered in rear- and all-wheel drive configurations with horsepower varying between 416 hp and 637 hp. In all likelihood, the GT model will be offered with these same power outputs. The sedan has a maximum range of 540 miles (870 km) on the CLTC cycle, and the GT should be similar.
Additional pricing and availability details for the sexy estate will be announced close to its launch, so stay tuned.
