The driving quality of the Zeekr X comes from the same chassis as the Mercedes Benz Smart

Mondo Cars Updated on 2024-01-30

Many friends are curious about the chassis of ZEEKR X, is it the same platform as Mercedes-Benz Smart?Let's take it apart and take a look at it today.

Chassis. Make level.

The chassis of this car is very flat, with large skid plates for spoiler and dust protection.

The car is a dual-motor version, and the front motor is owned by Geely's own Weirui electric motor factory. The maximum power is 115 kW, the maximum torque is 200 Nm, and the maximum speed can reach 16,000 rpm.

The motor controller is also from Verrui.

The power steering motor is European-style and relatively thick.

There is a thick steel plate at the front of the battery to protect the plug.

The car is equipped with a 169 Ah ternary lithium battery with a voltage of 392V, and the ** merchant comes from Geely Holdings' "Weirui Energy". At the same time, Weirui is the royal "three electric" merchants of Geely, Zeekr, Lynk & Co, Volvo, Polestar, Lotus and other brands. But Weirui is actually only a packaging factory, and the battery cells come from the joint venture between CATL and Geely - "Times Geely".

There's still a decent amount of space behind the battery, obviously with a larger battery and even a fuel tank to form a plug-in hybrid system.

The rear motor is also provided by "Weirui", with a maximum power of 200 kilowatts, a maximum torque of 343 Nm, and a high-efficiency flat wire motor with a maximum speed of 16,500 rpm, which is a high-speed motor, but not an ultra-high-speed motor.

This Zeekrypton X, which has only run a few thousand kilometers, has rusty chassis.

Front suspension. Mcpherson.

The front subframe is a full-frame structure with ** reinforcing beams to fix the front motor, which is exactly the same as the previously dismantled smart Elf 1.

The front overhang is also the same as the Phantom 1, which is a common MacPherson structure, the lower swing arm is double-layer stamped steel plate, and the front wheel knuckle is made of aluminum alloy.

Rear suspension. Five-link.

The rear subframe is also the same as the Phantom No. 1, which is a double-layer stamped steel plate full-frame construction. The difference is that the rear motor of the Phantom 1 is not covered with soundproof cotton, while the Zeekr X has a large area of soundproof cotton.

The rear suspension is also the same as the Elf No. 1, which is a standard five-link independent suspension, the upper control arm is made of aluminum alloy, the rest are stamped steel plates, the main lower swing arm is a double-layer stamped steel plate, and the rear wheel connecting disc is the same as the front wheel, which is made of aluminum alloy.

The rear suspension is a spring-barrel split structure to improve comfort.

Summary

smart in the same style

The chassis of this Zeekr X is almost exactly the same as the previously dismantled Smart Elf 1, which is derived from the vast architecture of Geely SEA, and uses the five-link rear suspension that only luxury cars have. However, the material of ZEEKR X is a little better, and the rear motor has an extra layer of silent and soundproof cotton. However, what is surprising is that the mileage of this newly bought car is not long, and some parts of the chassis have rusted, and it seems that the anti-rust treatment needs to be strengthened.

So what about the interior of this car?Please also stay tuned for the follow-up car dismantling content. (The conclusion of the measurement data in this article and ** is only responsible for this vehicle, and the measurement data is responsible for the published experimental method.) )
