The Chinese Zeekr 001 electric car turned out to be the most trouble-free model on the Russian secondary market. This was reported to Izvestia on November 8 by experts from the Avtoteka online car history check service (Avito project). They studied the database of ads with Chinese cars no older than five years old, which were sold in 2025, and found out which models were least likely to be involved in accidents.
It turned out that the Zeekr 001 has the highest share of cars with a trouble—free ownership history - 87%. Among the models, Geely Monjaro (83.9%), Tank 300 (83.5%), Voyah Free (82.3%) and Haval Dargo (81.6%) are also less likely to have data on accidents. They are followed in the ranking by Haval M6, Exeed RX, Tank 500, Changan CS55 Plus and Changan UNI-K.
Among other models with a high percentage of trouble-free copies, experts noted the Changan UNI-V, Chery Tiggo 8 Pro Max, Chery Tiggo 7 Pro Max, Changan CS35 Plus, Chery Arrizo 8, Exeed VX, Exeed TXL, Geely Tugella, Omoda S5 and Omoda C5, which are popular in the Russian market. Each of them has a rate exceeding 70%.
According to analysts, among cars aged 2-5 years, 72% of cars have no mention of an accident in their history. Such cars are most often found among the Zeekr (86.3%), Li Auto (86.1%), Voyah (81.7%), Tank (80.9%) and Jetour (79.7%) brands. GAC (79.2%), FAW (78%), Changan (76.6%), Great Wall (74.1%) and Exeed (72.5%) rounded out the top ten.
The day before, it was reported that car sales in Russia of the Chinese brands Lixiang and Zeekr, which gained popularity in the Russian market in 2023-2024, declined sharply. So, in October 2025, 1,439 Lixiang cars were registered in Russia, which is 40% less than in October last year. As for Zeekr, in October, 291 electric cars of the brand were registered in Russia. This is half as much (-52%) as in October last year.
