Zotye T700's air filter is located under the glove compartment, near the left side rectangular removable panel. The Zotye T700 is a mid-to-large size 5-door 5-seat SUV with body dimensions of 4748mm in length, 1933mm in width, 1697mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2850mm. The Zotye T700 is equipped with a 1.8T turbocharged engine and a 6-speed dual-clutch transmission, delivering a maximum power of 130 kW and a maximum torque of 245 N·m. It features front-wheel drive, with a front suspension using MacPherson independent suspension and a rear suspension using multi-link independent suspension.

I remember the air filter location of my Zotye T700 was quite easy to find—it's right behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. Just open the glove box, gently pull, and you'll see a small cover. Unscrew it to access the filter. I first replaced the filter after driving over 10,000 kilometers because the cabin odor became too strong. It's recommended to check it every six months or 12,000 km, as dust buildup affects air quality and health. Replacing it yourself only requires a screwdriver, and buying a filter online costs just over ten yuan—saving money and hassle. Pay extra attention during hot weather; a dirty filter slows down AC cooling and significantly reduces driving comfort. If you often park under trees, watch out for leaves clogging the filter.

I have to mention this, as many car owners ask me about the air conditioning filter. The filter for the Zotye T700 is usually installed on the right side under the dashboard, hidden inside the glove compartment. You need to remove the plastic clip first to access it. I've changed it multiple times myself—it's simple and not difficult, just a screwdriver is needed for the tool. The key point is that regular maintenance is essential. A dirty filter can cause allergies or throat discomfort, and long-term neglect may even overload the air conditioning system, consuming more power. If you live in a big city with poor air quality, it's recommended to check it quarterly. For beginners, following step-by-step tutorials on YouTube makes it easy to avoid mistakes, saving both money and effort.

Last time I took my Zotye T700 out for a drive, I noticed a musty smell coming from the AC. I quickly checked the filter location, which turned out to be behind a small panel on the side under the passenger footwell—just lift it to replace. Young car owners love tinkering with this; changing the filter takes less than 10 minutes, and the compatible parts bought online are cheap and work well, saving a trip to the shop. Air quality is crucial, especially in summer when pollen and dust are heavy. A clogged filter can ruin the driving mood. I replace mine every 8,000 km, and the car smells much fresher—it even feels more energizing to drive. Grab some basic tools and give it a try; it’s fun and rewarding.
