Imagine this: a car that’s not just for commuting but a flexible, adaptable space where you can host a card game, practice yoga, or even hold a family meeting. A car that turns long trips into a social event and eliminates the monotony of transportation as we know it.
Enter the Zeekr Mix—a family-friendly EV that challenges our assumptions about what a car should be. Zeekr (ZK) isn’t merely adding tech for the sake of it; they’ve rethought the entire experience of family mobility from the ground up.
Interior Versatility: A Living Room on Wheels
The interior of the Zeekr Mix is where its magic truly happens. The design takes advantage of every possible square inch, making it one of the most versatile spaces you can find in a vehicle. Thanks to the SEA-M platform, the Mix boasts a 93% space utilization rate, meaning nearly the entire interior is usable space—far surpassing typical SUVs, which hover around 70%.
But it’s not just numbers. The front seats swivel 270 degrees, allowing passengers to turn the car into a social hub. Imagine stopping at a scenic spot and swiveling the seats to face each other, turning the car into a lounge for drinks or even a cozy space for card games.
The movable center console adds another layer of flexibility, transforming from a storage space into a dining table, or disappearing entirely to open up more room.
With nine different seating configurations, the Zeekr Mix can adapt to your lifestyle. Need a quick nap? The seats fold flat to form a bed. Heading out on a fishing trip? The cabin can easily be adjusted into a lounge-like setting. You’re no longer limited by the static layouts of traditional cars.
Safety Meets Innovation: The Hidden B-Pillars
While the idea of a car with massive sliding doors and no visible B-pillars might sound like a safety compromise, Zeekr has flipped the script. The hidden dual B-pillars, crafted from 2,000 MPa hot-formed steel, offer more than 30% extra strength compared to conventional materials. So, despite the pillarless design, the Mix actually enhances safety.
The structural integrity of the Mix was tested under some of the most extreme conditions. Zeekr put the vehicle through rigorous crash tests, including dropping a 2.2-ton container on its roof and performing a side impact collision at 60 km/h. In both tests, the car’s structure held firm, proving that futuristic design doesn’t mean sacrificing safety.
And it’s not just about steel. The one-piece die-cast rear body, shared with the Zeekr 009, adds rigidity to the frame, ensuring the Mix isn’t just a pretty design—it’s built to withstand the unpredictable moments life throws at you.
Lightning-Fast Charging: No More Range Anxiety
One of the Mix’s standout features is its ultra-fast charging capability. Both battery options—the 76 kWh LFP and the 102 kWh NMC—are designed to take the stress out of EV ownership.
The 76 kWh version delivers a solid 550 km (342 miles) of range, while the larger 102 kWh option boosts that to an impressive 700 km (435 miles). For most families, that’s enough to go days or even weeks without needing to charge, depending on usage.
But when you do need to top up, you won’t be stuck waiting. Zeekr’s proprietary 5.5C ultra-fast charging technology can take you from 10% to 80% in just 10.5 minutes.
This is one of the fastest charge times in the industry, meaning you can plug in, grab a coffee, and be back on the road in the time it takes to listen to a few songs.
Beyond Transportation: The Family “Third Space”
While Western markets might be more familiar with cars as functional vehicles, in China, the car is often viewed as a “third space”, a concept where the car is more than just a means to get from A to B—it’s a social or recreational space outside of the home.
The Zeekr Mix leans into this concept heavily. With its spacious interior, rotating seats, and adaptable configurations, it turns the vehicle into a true extension of your home.
This approach makes the Mix more than just an MPV (multi-purpose vehicle) or SUV—it’s a category-defying blend of both. Whether you’re using it to transport your family or converting it into a lounge for relaxation, Zeekr’s design team ensured that the Mix would facilitate activities you wouldn’t usually associate with cars.
Want to do some stretches or yoga while parked? Go ahead—the 1,350 mm cabin height ensures there’s room to move. Need a dining room on wheels? The Mix can do that too.
Future-Proofing with Tech: Autonomy and Beyond
On top of all the physical innovations, the Zeekr Mix is loaded with tech that makes driving smarter and safer. One of its most intriguing features is the Zeekr Haohan 2.0 driver assistance system, which can handle everything from highway driving to navigating city streets with ease.
Thanks to a suite of LiDAR sensors, high-definition cameras, and millimeter-wave radar, the Mix can not only park itself but also operate autonomously in a wide variety of scenarios.
And if that wasn’t enough, the Mix also boasts an AR-HUD (Augmented Reality Head-Up Display), allowing drivers to keep their eyes on the road while still getting essential information projected onto the windshield.
It’s this kind of seamless integration of technology that elevates the Mix beyond your typical family car and into the realm of futuristic, intuitive driving experiences.
Zeekr’s Vision for the Future
While most carmakers are busy refining what’s already been done, Zeekr is pushing the boundaries of what a family vehicle can be. With the Zeekr Mix, the brand has created something far more than just a mode of transport—it’s a vehicle that facilitates life.
It doesn’t matter if you’re commuting, lounging, or traveling, the Mix ensures that the journey is just as important as the destination.
And at a starting price of RMB 279,900 (around $39,250), the Zeekr Mix offers exceptional value for a vehicle packed with industry-first innovations. It’s clear that Zeekr sees the future of mobility as something far more interactive and dynamic than ever before.
Charge Complete
The Zeekr Mix isn’t just a family car—it’s a glimpse into the future of how we’ll use vehicles in our daily lives. With its blend of fast charging, versatile interiors, and cutting-edge technology, it’s redefining what an EV can be.
Whether you’re lounging, driving, or everything in between, the Mix makes it clear that the future of family mobility is here, and it’s brighter than ever.
