Verdict
The Zeekr 009 is the more capable long-distance MPV: its 116 kWh battery claims 604 km, against the Denza D9’s 103.36 kWh and 520 km, while 335 hp cuts 0-100 km/h to 7.9 seconds. Its 574-litre boot and 3,205 mm wheelbase also favour a fully loaded seven-seat trip. But the D9 is RM5,800 cheaper, has faster 166 kW DC charging and 6 kW V2L. For Malaysian families who prioritise range, luggage room and rear-cabin hardware, take the 009; the D9 remains the sharper-cost choice.
D9
Pick the Denza D9 if faster 166 kW DC charging, 6 kW V2L and a lower RM299,000 entry price matter more than maximum range and boot space.
009
Pick the Zeekr 009 if you want 604 km claimed range, a 574-litre boot, air suspension and stronger 335 hp performance.
