The ZEEKR 001 5th Anniversary Edition is a limited, track-flavoured version of the brand's flagship shooting brake, launched in China on April 10, 2026 at RMB 365,000 (about $54,500). It uses the same dual-motor all-wheel-drive system as the range-topping 001 Ultra+: 680 kW (912 hp / 925 PS) and 913 Nm, good for a 2.91-second 0-100 km/h sprint and a 280 km/h top speed. A 103 kWh Qilin battery on a 900 V platform gives 680 km of CLTC range and 6C charging, with a 10-80% top-up in about 10 minutes in the best case. What the anniversary badge adds is hardware: an FR-Line exterior package with carbon-fibre trim, factory KW coilovers, Brembo six-piston brakes and 22-inch forged wheels on Pirelli P Zero tyres.
Performance & Specs
The Anniversary Edition pairs a 310 kW motor with a 370 kW motor for a combined 680 kW (912 hp / 925 PS) and 913 Nm of torque, using a dual silicon-carbide all-wheel-drive system. ZEEKR rates the sprint from 0-100 km/h at 2.91 seconds and top speed at 280 km/h. A door sticker on the showroom car in our source video reads 2.83 seconds, which is the rating of the standard four-wheel-drive 2026 001; the Anniversary Edition's own official figure is 2.91 seconds. The power comes from a 103 kWh CATL Qilin battery, and the car rides on 22-inch shadow-black forged wheels with Pirelli P Zero tyres, stopped by red-painted Brembo six-piston calipers. KW coilovers are standard, with 16 steps of rebound damping, 12 steps of compression damping and up to 35 mm of ride-height adjustment.

| Length | 4,977 mm |

The 001 keeps ZEEKR's distinctive shooting-brake profile — part sedan, part wagon — at 4,977 mm long and 1,999 mm wide, on a 3,005 mm wheelbase, with a full-width rear light bar carrying the ZEEKR wordmark. The Anniversary Edition adds a carbon-fibre rear spoiler. In the walkaround video the front trunk is shallow, roughly 31 litres by the reviewer's count, while the load bay behind the tailgate is deep and square and grows with the rear seats folded. No boot-volume figure appeared in the launch materials we reviewed, so we quote no litre number for it.
Charging & Battery
The Anniversary Edition runs a 103 kWh CATL Qilin battery on a 900 V architecture (924 V peak) with a 6C peak charge rate. ZEEKR quotes a 10-80% DC charge in about 10 minutes at best, and CLTC range is rated at 680 km, which works out to roughly 15 kWh per 100 km on that cycle. The 12C, 7-minute figure that ZEEKR advertises for the 001 belongs to the standard Max AWD with the in-house 95 kWh Golden Battery, not to this edition's Qilin pack. Elsewhere in the 2026 001 range the 103 kWh pack delivers up to 810 km of CLTC range on the rear-drive Max.
| BATTERY | 103 kWh Qilin (CATL), 900 V |
|---|---|
| DC FAST CHARGING | 6C peak, 10-80% in about 10 min |
| ELECTRIC RANGE | 680 km (CLTC) |
Design & Interior
The launch colour is Glacier Silver with a contrasting black roof, finished with the FR-Line exterior package: carbon-fibre mirror caps and rear spoiler, red badges and the 22-inch shadow-black forged wheels. Inside, the cabin follows a black-and-red FR-Line theme with suede-type performance seats, red seatbelts, a suede headliner and FR-Line badges on the headrests and door sills. Both rows have 3D deep massage, ventilation and heating, and the 29-speaker ZEEKR Sound Max system is rated at 4,680 W.
Technology & Features
The cockpit carries a 16-inch 3.5K centre touchscreen, a 13.02-inch instrument screen, a 39.3-inch AR head-up display and an 8-inch rear control screen. Assisted driving is ZEEKR's G-Pilot H7 system, built on an Nvidia Drive Thor-U chip with 700 TOPS and 31 sensors, including LiDAR. The car in our source video shows an official English-language interface option alongside Chinese, which is useful context for buyers importing a unit.
Pricing & Availability
The 5th Anniversary Edition is priced at RMB 365,000 (about $54,500 at 6.70 yuan per dollar). It launched on April 10, 2026, the first batch sold out on April 14, first deliveries were announced on April 30, and ZEEKR put a limited second batch on sale on May 29 at the same price. That is RMB 35,200 (about $5,300) more than the 001 Ultra+ (RMB 329,800, about $49,200), which has the same 680 kW powertrain. The rest of the 2026 001 range runs from RMB 269,800 (about $40,300) for the Max, offered with a 95 kWh battery and AWD (710 km CLTC) or a 103 kWh battery and RWD (810 km), through the Ultra at RMB 299,800 (about $44,700, 762 km) to the Ultra+ (730 km). Buyer incentives reported for the sales windows included an RMB 8,000 purchase-tax subsidy and RMB 5,000 each for trade-in, insurance and an options fund, worth up to RMB 23,000 (about $3,400) if they still apply. Dollar quotes of $54,000-$56,000 for this car on export-sourcing channels roughly line up with the yuan price at current exchange rates, so ask what shipping, compliance and dealer fees a quote includes. The car is confirmed for China; the 001 nameplate is also sold in Europe (ZEEKR's Dutch site lists a 001 Business Edition from EUR 54,990), but ZEEKR has not announced this edition for Europe or North America as of September 2026.
How It Compares
The closest relative is the ZEEKR 007 GT Ultra AWD, another shooting brake that also does 0-100 km/h in about 2.9 seconds with 784 hp and 760 km of range; it costs about $18,100 less, and the 001 answers with 128 more horsepower and the FR-Line hardware. The Denza Z9 GT tri-motor is the sharper spec-sheet rival: another shooting brake with 1,140 hp (228 more) and 860 km of range for about $5,300 less, so the ZEEKR has to win on chassis hardware and badge rather than numbers. The Xiaomi YU7 GT is an electric performance SUV with 990 hp and 2.92 seconds to 100 km/h for about $3,700 more, which frames the ZEEKR as the lower-slung, wagon-shaped alternative.
- 912 hp and a 2.91-second 0-100 km/h sprint for RMB 365,000 (about $54,500), with a 280 km/h top speed
- 6C charging on a 900 V platform, 10-80% in about 10 minutes at best
- Track hardware fitted from the factory: KW coilovers with adjustable damping and ride height, Brembo six-piston brakes, forged 22-inch wheels
- A practical five-door shooting-brake body on a 3,005 mm wheelbase, with massage seats in both rows
- Limited allocation: the first batch sold out in four days, and the second was also a limited run
- Costs RMB 35,200 (about $5,300) more than the 001 Ultra+ with the same 680 kW, and its 680 km CLTC range is 50 km shorter
- No announced export programme for this edition, so buyers outside China depend on importers
The ZEEKR 001 5th Anniversary Edition is the standard 001 with a factory track package: the same 912 hp and 913 Nm as the Ultra+, plus KW coilovers, Brembo brakes, forged wheels and FR-Line trim in a useful shooting-brake body. It adds no power over the Ultra+, so the extra RMB 35,200 (about $5,300) buys hardware, styling and limited-edition status rather than speed. For buyers who want a wagon-shaped performance EV with a proper chassis package it is one of the more convincing options from China this year; for pure pace per dollar, the standard Ultra+ or the Denza Z9 GT tri-motor make a stronger case.
