Verdict
At RM269,800, the GWM Wey G9 undercuts the RM304,800 Zeekr 009 by RM35,000, while adding all-wheel drive and a 5.7-second 0-100 km/h time. Its plug-in hybrid layout also gives a petrol fallback after its 170 km EV range. But the Zeekr is the stronger fit for buyers able to charge regularly: its 116 kWh battery claims 604 km, DC charging reaches 150 kW, and its 574-litre boot is far more useful than the G9’s 233 litres. The G9 counters with RM120 annual road tax against RM395.
Pick the GWM Wey G9 if you want the lower entry price, all-wheel drive and petrol-backed flexibility without relying solely on charging.
Pick the Zeekr 009 if you can charge an EV regularly and want 604 km of claimed range, much faster charging and a larger boot.
