Merry Christmas 🎁. I'm glad you made this video it reminds me of my transformation from a nobody to good home, $34k monthly and a good daughter full of love
Unfortunately, not all of us were financially literate early. I was 35 when I finally educated myself and started taking steps. I went from $176,000 in debt with zero savings or retirement to now, 2 years later, fully debt-free and over $1000,000 net worth. I know that doesn't SOUND like a lot, but I'm incredibly proud of it. Now I'm fast-tracking my wealth building (investing $400,000 annually) and don't owe a dime to anyone. It's a good feeling!

SUVs with their higher ground clearance are easier to get into and out of. This ergonomics aspect is critical for young families with babies and toddlers who naturally need to use baby capsules. Older people find SUVs easier to live with as well.
@@user-kc1tf7zm3b agree with all of your points. From a less practical point of view I prefer the aesthetics of a wagon such as an Audi A6 all road but as you say, it's not as easy to load babies into :-)
@@davidbee8178 In Australia, wagons have long been relegated to a car style of a different time in the 2000s. There is just no going back. As for aesthetics, Australians prefer SUVs as they not seen as boring and irrelevant as sedans. Wagons, are after all, glorified sedans. Drivers in regional areas much prefer SUVs, as with roads often being rough and mediocre, the higher ground clearance means a smoother ride and with less driver anxiety over undercarriage, suspension and wheel damage.
@@user-kc1tf7zm3b For SURE an SUV for rough roads and off roading no contest - I'd never want to subject a beautiful Audi Allroad to off-roading anyway. I just don't like the look of SOME of the SUV's that look too "boxy" . . . sort of like a garden shed or brick on wheels - but that's just aesthetics. Practicality rules in certain applications, agreed.
Miss my old 1995 Saturn SW2. With the passenger seat removed I could easily load 10' 2x4s in it. On a road trip it would easily maintain 75 mph and knock down 42 mpg doing it. It went 415,000 miles before it succumbed to rust issues.
I hope you will find a job at Chinese working conditions… that’s the reason why trump is needed as the majority is too egoistic and follow blindly those china influencers
It’s interesting to see how EV ranges have been consistently increasing over the years, even month by month. These changes are so gradual that no one really notices. At this rate, a 2,000-3,000-mile range will become standard without much fanfare. 😀
@@NikolaosSkordilis Already existing car batteries provide 500+ miles per charge. Some batteries currently being tested in labs around the world have 4-5 times greater energy density. Do the math. By the way, I remember when cell phone batteries were the size of a brick, and some people said there was no way to improve them. 😀
Whoever brings the first quality station wagon to the U.K. will clean up. Hopefully the experience Geely have had with Volvo ie cancelling UK station wagon sales then reinstating them more recently will mean that they are aware that there is a big demand for a car like this U.K.
On Full Self Driving, it literally just released OS 6.3 yesterday and now all Zeekrs have MUCH better self driving tech! Seems to be ripped from Huawei and they actually bought up a bunch of Huawei Engineers. Now you can do all the basics like full city and highway driving as well as self parking after leaving the vehicle. Also many new features like you can remotely talk through the external mic now and control the fridge. Supposedly big improvements to EVA, their voice assistant. Will be definitely testing out all the new features soon.
Practicing patience while I wait for Zeekr to bring the 007 (wagon) to Australia or the 7X. Wagons have the big advantage of not needing to be 2.5 m tall to unload roof boxes, kayaks, bikes etc from the roof.
At some future point I hope the US will develop relationships with Chinese companies which will provide Americans the ability to experience these vehicles. I can understand that tariffs have been used to protect industries in order to compete with foreign products but will only be successful if those products are equal in features and quality to those made elsewhere. If not, tariffs only serve to frustrate buyers who know they are being denied better products.
Geely - please make 700-800km WLTP hatchback with LFP battery for the EU market! We don't need huge 300hp motors. Just good range in a normal sized hatchback with reasonable price up to 20-25k. Preferably FWD!
Good looking cars, impressive stats, if the price is right , along with safety requirements AND most importantly the aftersales spares and repairs availability, then i may be tempted to trade my model 3 for one of these. Great reporting Sam! Thanks. Dave B.
Great looking car, wagon, design. Good to see a small Drivers Display, important, that’s enough, centre sightline for Speed. Great looking car, this over anything European, Overpriced & Under Engineered. Looks like J Yellen has given us Word of the Year - “Overcapacity”.
That car looks nice! Let's hope they bring it to Malaysia as well. I've checked out the Zeekr X, but would prefer something with more interior space. I like the 7X as well but, the pricing here may push it up to the premium cars unless, they strip some stuff out for this market, say the air suspension and powered rear seats. Right now, Xpeng G6 and Zeekr X are my favorites but the 7X and 007 wagon are now added to that list.
Very nice and energy efficient car ! What Stellantis and VW should propose right now in Europe . But unfortunately those companies do not have the knowhow nor the wilingness... 😢 hope it will be imported without crazy tariff...
Finally an electric wagon from "partly Swedish" Geely... People from Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Germany wants wagons... Now we are awaiting herrgårdsvagnar/wagons from Volvo and Polestar
I drive a 2002 1.9tdi Passat estate (wagon) and have for many years and it is unbreakable but I may have just found its replacement. In the UK there is pent up demand once we trust that we can make it work, If we got home V2G charging as part of the car purchase it would massively accelerate uptake, maybe an EV manufacturer could team up with Octopus energy in the UK to create the package. This would get around the chicken or egg first problem, simply get both simultaneously 😁
I’m Canadian and I’m sick to know that my govt is slapping on ridiculous tariffs on these Chinese EV to ‘protect’ our home grown industry - what home grown industry?
As you know, it is widely excepted that WLTP range is grossly overstated. And all these price figures you provide are only applicable to China. None of these prices reflect real world anywhere else.
I hope the Zeekr 007 wagon comes to Australia. I'd be lining up to order one today. Xpeng G9 is on my current shopping list after I decided the BYD Sealion wasn't for me, but I'm just waiting to see what the specs and pricing are before I pull the trigger or wait for Zeekr to come first and then decide. Either way, I wish they'd hurry up! A new Model Y will be my only other choice otherwise.
would love a zeekr in malaysia ... i love the sleep look and the features. i think most car brands in europe will die off or would have died off if some of them were not bought by china some years ago.
Mr. Viking @ 2:02 "the engineering department are just phenomenal, guys they're next level." That is a highly subjective assessment. It really doesn't matter how fast the Zeekr 007 is compared to a Tesla Plaid or how fast it goes on a racetrack. Regular drivers don't want to be piloting a vehicle where touching the accelerator pedal turns them into a ground level missile. The 007 wagon looks to be near identical to the sedan except for a slightly extended roof, so the wagon should be easy to make from the sedan.
I live in Canada, and we don't have Chinese made cars, there are no dealerships or a way to buy them. We have the "Vinfast" which I believe is from Vietnam, we have the Electric Mercedes, BMW, Hyundai Tesla...etc. Which are quite out of reach for most working class folk. I would like to switch to electric, but for now my Gas Guzzler Jeep will have to do.
Only if it raised its suspension, i want something similar to my old ice Subaru outback. Australia has some pretty rough roads and clearance is an issue , particularly as evs are getting longer wheelbases.
I'm in Australia. The Zeekr 007 electric wagon would interest me, though I don't understand how it relates to the 7X?? FWIW, I'm with you. I have no interest in a sedan.

My advice to everyone is that saving is great but investment is the key to be successful imagine investing $15,000 and received $472,700.

His guidance allowed me to restructure my retirement plan, resulting in an estimated $700,000 more by the time I retire.
Bring back the wagons, most practical vehicles we have and will out handle any ute.

An electric wagon with those specs would be great for Australia.
2 of those Gold Brick battery custom stacked and fitted in a Cybertruck with retuned Plaid motors 450+hp each for around 1400hp....
You, Ozzy’s are gonna be a colony of China sooner than you think. Better teach your kids Chinese so they can read the instruction manual.
Im a huge wagon fan. Been driving a 2004 Saab wagon 2.3 liter turbo since 2008
Definitely bring this car to Australia, looks fantastic
If this came to Australia I would buy it.
Me too
What do you think about elizzarda? I’ve never seen anything like it.
Next level auto and they're good looking designs.
I live in the US. I hope to buy a Zeeker someday. I can only imagine how good they’ll be by the time they are available here.
I hope you will find a job at Chinese working conditions… that’s the reason why trump is needed as the majority is too egoistic and follow blindly those china influencers
Would be great to see this wagon in the US as well. I drive a Subaru Outback but would love to replace it with an EV wagon with this type of range!
Bring to New Zealand. Yes Australia and England love a stationwagon/Estate
With you on wagons being a great choice - wish there were more in the UK

2,000 - 3,000 miles?! No way, not even for the most efficient ICE. Or a Li-air / solid state battery pack.

One day, they will come with Life-time batteries, just like a nuclear submarine.
@@MetaView7 Easy. A battery with 1000+ miles of range combined with a solar surface means you won’t need to charge, except for long daily trips.
I would love to have this wagon here in Australia!
Yes!! Been waiting for an electric wagon - I agree with you Sam, that is the ideal car. I'm in Australia.
This would be a great option to have in Australia. Wagons are so versatile and no automakers seem to sell them anymore.
Did someone say the best wagen in history. I love wagen ❤😮. Hope it's available in the US.
When are they coming to the Caribbean? BYD need some competition. Bring the 7X to the Caribbean.
Yes I Want one NOW !
No one else does.
I’d like to hear your opinion on XRP, ADA, and elizzarda. Thank you!)))
I don't need 600hp for my daily family wagon. I only need 200hp and a cheaper price.
even 100hp will be enough
And that would keep your insurance costs lower...
Would love to see these cars in the US
The uk needs zeekr
completely agree... more competition with Tesla please!
Whoever brings the first quality station wagon to the U.K. will clean up. Hopefully the experience Geely have had with Volvo ie cancelling UK station wagon sales then reinstating them more recently will mean that they are aware that there is a big demand for a car like this U.K.
now we're walking. I will move this to the top of my list. hope they release in Oz.

Cohan in Vic Park showed me through the 09 the other day, OMG!
Great soec for Aussie, especially if we can get 700 km real world use.

Thanks for the video, Sam. I would be delighted to see this car in Australia. It will go on my short list.
007 Wagon would be a perfect tourer!

that is the one I want. Might have to move down under!
Good looking cars, impressive stats, if the price is right , along with safety requirements AND most importantly the aftersales spares and repairs availability, then i may be tempted to trade my model 3 for one of these.
Great reporting Sam! Thanks.
Dave B.
Both cars look great. I'm in Europe and would love to see them over here
I can't wait to buy a Zeekr in Spain! Hurry please!
Great looking car, wagon, design. Good to see a small Drivers Display, important, that’s enough, centre sightline for Speed. Great looking car, this over anything European, Overpriced & Under Engineered. Looks like J Yellen has given us Word of the Year - “Overcapacity”.
Fully agree. Driver display and a HUD are for me a necessity for safety and speed limits compliance. Tesla are no-go.
You realise that Zeekr is mainly designed in Sweden...
Same as Polestar and Lynk
@@hansj5846 Yes, Geely Group, allow these Designers to create their best work, hopefully the Lotus EV seeks a balance btw Weight & Performance.
@@hansj5846 Great ! Soon Ford will be designed mainly in the U.S.A. Same as G.M. and Tesla...
YES YES YES
Never understood why we never have had a resurgence of wagons... So much better than SUVs...
we really need rhd versions of these cars , South Africa
Hell yeah! Bring them over to the UK
Thank you for the info ..Greetz from the Netherlands
Byd is in the lead, just by making profits on the sales.
Definitely a nice car. I live in America though, won't be available here.
Hope cars like these eventually come to America.
Fat chance. We have to protect the likes of the Ford Mach E, with less range and far slower charging. Lucky US.
Prices in Perth for Zeekr X $62888 AUD ($39000 USD) Need to come down quite a bit for me to buy atm.
And that ain't even the AWD
That car looks nice! Let's hope they bring it to Malaysia as well. I've checked out the Zeekr X, but would prefer something with more interior space. I like the 7X as well but, the pricing here may push it up to the premium cars unless, they strip some stuff out for this market, say the air suspension and powered rear seats. Right now, Xpeng G6 and Zeekr X are my favorites but the 7X and 007 wagon are now added to that list.
Looking forward to Zeekr entering the UK market in 2025 and the 007 will be on my shortlist for my next car.
Would love one of theses
Yes finally an EV wagon……pls bring it to Australia
Bring it on - I'd love something like my Skoda Superb wagon in electric form.
I want one here in the US today!
I want the 7X SUV over here in the UK a.s.a.p . Keep up the good work Sam
The new ID7 Tourer gets reviews elsewhere, but no mention of that car on this channel.
Very nice and energy efficient car ! What Stellantis and VW should propose right now in Europe . But unfortunately those companies do not have the knowhow nor the wilingness... 😢 hope it will be imported without crazy tariff...
Finally a proper wagon, can't wait for them to appear in EU.
007 Wagon would do very well in Australia imo
I would love to see this in Canada
This is the only car am waiting for in the future
That's the next car plan to test.. 😊
I agree I really like the wagon, and dual motor, those KW’s, the battery fast charging, ghd distance. I would like to test drive and know more about.
Finally an electric wagon from "partly Swedish" Geely... People from Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Germany wants wagons... Now we are awaiting herrgårdsvagnar/wagons from Volvo and Polestar

I like it. Put me down for two of them.
I'm looking forward to drive it in Belgium. For my componay car I want a EV with a range of more than 800 km.
I can't wait to see the Zeekr 007 and 7x released in Australia 😀
I've seen the Zeekr X and Zeekr 009 and loved both of them 🙂
I’m Canadian and I’m sick to know that my govt is slapping on ridiculous tariffs on these Chinese EV to ‘protect’ our home grown industry - what home grown industry?
As you know, it is widely excepted that WLTP range is grossly overstated. And all these price figures you provide are only applicable to China. None of these prices reflect real world anywhere else.
what kind/producer of tires do those cars have
What a nice car. Zeekr 001 got 5 stars in Euro NCAP tests so i asume the 007 is also safe 🙂
Driving a ute at the moment in Australia but would get rid of it tomorrow for a good wagon.
We should get this in the UK.
Hell, I think Ozzyland would benefit from it too.
Zeeker please bring the wagon to Australia who decided to only produce SUVs Wagons are more practical in every way ✅
I would definitely be interested. I miss my manual 2010 Holden Commodore VEII SSV Sportswagon.
I think this would be a great replacement for my model 3
What exactly is a "wagon"?
I'd still pick the Kia EV6 GT because of styling and interior ergonomics. I wish they would go with CATL batteries though.
Does it have camping mode?
Looking forward to the 7x here in Oz
I hope the Zeekr 007 wagon comes to Australia. I'd be lining up to order one today. Xpeng G9 is on my current shopping list after I decided the BYD Sealion wasn't for me, but I'm just waiting to see what the specs and pricing are before I pull the trigger or wait for Zeekr to come first and then decide.

would love a zeekr in malaysia ... i love the sleep look and the features. i think most car brands in europe will die off or would have died off if some of them were not bought by china some years ago.
I just like low cars with a decent boot. My old Prius is perfect, but wagons are also good.
Mr. Viking @ 2:02 "the engineering department are just phenomenal, guys they're next level."
That is a highly subjective assessment. It really doesn't matter how fast the Zeekr 007 is compared to a Tesla Plaid or how fast it goes on a racetrack.

I would like to switch to electric, but for now my Gas Guzzler Jeep will have to do.
We need more range.... We are lazy filling up patrol already... 🙏
Where can you get 600 kW charging stations? Seriously, tis but a marketing gimmick. But nice car though.
Looks good. Unfortunately not available here as yet and the price is yet to be seen. I suspect they'll end up being very expensive though.
In Singapore as well
I would have one if it had Tesla's FSD its a game change for the entire auto industry.
I'm in Melbourne Australia I wonder when zeeker come in to Australia and where is the show room , will bring the wagons
Thanks to Biden. Trump , Musk and all the politicians and big businesses that don't like Chinese EV's we'll never see this car any time soon.
Only if it raised its suspension, i want something similar to my old ice Subaru outback. Australia has some pretty rough roads and clearance is an issue , particularly as evs are getting longer wheelbases.
What is the difference between wagon and suv? Suv is just chunkier?
I hope the depreciation isn’t terrible like most EVs
Something like this in a 4x4 with 1000klm range and 2.5t tow capacity would be nice
For less than $30k? "Hiya, I have a unicorn for sale, vgc, interested?" 😉
I'm in Australia. The Zeekr 007 electric wagon would interest me, though I don't understand how it relates to the 7X??
FWIW, I'm with you. I have no interest in a sedan.
