Verdict
At RM186,288, the Peugeot 5008 costs RM3,488 more than the RM182,800 Zeekr 7X, yet it answers a different Malaysian family brief: seven seats and a 952-litre boot against five seats and 539 litres. The Zeekr is the sharper on-paper machine, with a 416-hp, 440-Nm rear motor, 6.0-second 0-100 km/h time and 480-km EV range. Its 22-kW AC and 450-kW DC charging capability is serious, but annual road tax is RM615 versus the Peugeot’s RM120. Choose seating flexibility or electric performance; neither is a substitute for the other.
Pick the Peugeot 5008 if you need seven seats, a 952-litre boot and a lower RM120 annual road-tax bill.
Pick the Zeekr 7X if five seats are enough and you want 416 hp, 480 km of EV range and much quicker acceleration for less money.
