A few days ago, Zeekr officially announced that the company is developing the Zeekr 001 FR. It will all be a sporty version of the Zeekr 001. However, the launch of this EV seems to be very close.
This morning, Zeekr announced that the company will hold the “Zeekr Evolution Day” event on September 1. According to rumors, the Zeekr 001 FR is also expected to be released simultaneously. There is a good chance that the company will reveal the new electric car at the upcoming event.
According to reports, the Zeekr 001 FR will come with a new high-performance kit that significantly enhances the car’s performance. The price of the car is also expected to exceed 1 million RMB.
The Zeekr 001 FR has a more daring lower surround design. It has a large accented front lip and bright orange accents.
In addition, two prominent orange air intakes are mounted on the lower front and complement the fixed rear wing to underline its powerful performance characteristics. Enlarged air deflectors on either side of the front further enhance the vehicle’s aggressive aesthetic.
After looking at the back of the car, the most prominent feature is its sturdy rear spoiler. When combined with a roof spoiler, it generates more downforce for improved control and high-speed stability. Additionally, the rear of the car features a large diffuser with orange lines, which echoes the design theme of the front of the car.
It is worth noting that the EV’s entire aerodynamic structure features a carbon fiber design, which improves the appearance of components such as the front lip, side skirts, rear diffuser, and rear spoiler. Even the roof will be made of carbon fiber, helping to reduce weight and improve the performance of the EV.
The Zeekr 001 FR also features lightweight, high-performance forged wheels that reduce unsprung mass for improved control. The car is also equipped with carbon-ceramic brake discs that enhance braking performance on the track.
