Verdict
The Zeekr X is the cheaper and much quicker C-segment SUV here: RM158,800 plays RM169,388, while 335 hp and a 5.3-second 0-100 km/h time make the Peugeot 3008’s 165 hp and 8.9 seconds look modest. But the Peugeot answers with petrol convenience, a larger 591-litre boot versus 404 litres, and a taller, longer body. The Zeekr brings 440 km of EV range from a 66.0 kWh battery, rear-wheel drive, seven airbags and AEB, so the decision is space and fuel habit versus pace and EV kit.
Pick the Peugeot 3008 if you want the larger boot, petrol refuelling and lower annual road tax.
Pick the Zeekr X if you want stronger acceleration, EV running and more listed safety kit for less money.
