Verdict

The Dongfeng 007 costs RM169,888, RM12,912 below the Zeekr 7X, and its 650 km range plus RM260 annual road tax make a strong case for long-distance Malaysian use. It is also marginally quicker to 100 km/h at 5.8 seconds. The Zeekr answers with a more practical five-door SUV body, 539-litre boot, 22 kW AC and 450 kW DC charging, alongside 416 hp and 440 Nm. Choose the 007 for range and lower running costs; pay more for the 7X’s charging speed and cabin practicality.

007

Pick the Dongfeng 007 if 650 km range, a RM12,912 lower purchase price and RM260 annual road tax matter more than SUV space and rapid charging.

7X

Pick the Zeekr 7X if you need a 539-litre SUV boot, 22 kW AC and 450 kW DC charging, plus its broader parking and cabin equipment.
