Verdict

The RM12,912 cheaper Dongfeng 007 is the long-distance choice: its 73.48 kWh battery is rated for 650 km, against 480 km from the Zeekr 7X, and it is marginally quicker to 100 km/h at 5.8 seconds. The Zeekr answers with a far stronger 416 hp/440 Nm motor, 800V hardware and up to 450 kW DC charging, plus SUV practicality from its 539-litre boot. For Malaysian ownership, its RM615 annual road tax versus RM260 also matters. Choose the 007 for range and price; pay for the 7X if charging speed, cabin versatility and equipment are priorities.

007

Pick the Dongfeng 007 if 650 km rated range, a RM169,888 price and lower RM260 annual road tax matter more than SUV space and faster charging.

7X

Pick the Zeekr 7X if you want 450 kW DC charging, a 539-litre SUV boot and substantially richer parking, safety and cabin equipment.
