The automotive industry has called every compact and aspirational premium electric crossover a "Model Y fighter" for the past five years. Many brands have tried to challenge Tesla, and some have even had modest success. But it’s not that easy to dethrone the best-selling vehicle in the world. That’s not going to stop plenty of brands from trying again, though. This time it's Zeekr coming at Tesla with a not-officially-named crossover still referred to by its codename, the CX1E. Given Zeekr’s success over the past year, this crossover could be the model that could put the screws to the Model Y in certain markets.
