Zeeker 001 is the first EV model of Geely’s EV brand Zeeker, it is a 5-door shooting brake slightly larger than Lucid Air/Tesla Model S. Zeeker 001 recently started delivery of a CATL Qilin battery powered version boasting a CLTC range of 1032km. This version has a battery pack with 140kWh capacity.
The test was conducted in highway at 120kmh(75mph) speed (legal max speed). **Carrying 4 passengers, on a rainy day, with average temperature of 15 degree Celsius, Zeeker 001 delivered a highway range of 864.9km(537mi) !**

The tester continue to drive the car after state of charge reached zero, until it was crawling like how [InsideEV tested highway range](https://insideevs.com/reviews/562511/lucid-air-range-test-record/). The last part is not practical for everyday use, but even subtracting 20+km, it still have over 840km range.
The range of EV is improving fast. I’m optimistic that range anxiety is going to fade away in a few years.
