Verdict
At just RM100 apart, the Aion Y Plus is the stronger EV proposition for most Malaysian buyers. Its 63.2-kWh battery claims 430 km, against the Neta Neta X’s 52.49 kWh and 401 km, while 201 hp and 225 Nm cut the 0-100 km/h time to 8.5 seconds versus 9.5 seconds. The Aion also has an 80-kW DC charging figure and an eight-year, 160,000-km vehicle warranty. But the Neta counters with a much larger 508-litre boot, multi-link rear suspension, 18-inch wheels and more cabin equipment.
Pick the Aion Y Plus if you want the longer 430-km claimed range, quicker 8.5-second acceleration and longer eight-year vehicle warranty.
Pick the Neta Neta X if a 508-litre boot, multi-link rear suspension, powered boot and richer infotainment matter more than the Aion’s range and performance edge.
