GWM Ora 07 vs Mazda 6 Sedan
Verdict
At RM10,559 less, the GWM Ora 07 looks aggressive on paper: 201 hp, 640 km NEDC EV range, AEB and a six-year warranty against the Mazda 6 Sedan’s 163 hp and five-year warranty. It is also 6 mm longer, 22 mm wider and has 40 mm more wheelbase. But the Mazda fights back with a 489-litre boot versus 333 litres, plus a 62-litre tank for buyers who still want petrol convenience.
Pick the GWM Ora 07 if EV charging fits your routine and you want the lower price, 201 hp, 640 km NEDC range and AEB.
Pick the Mazda 6 Sedan if you want the bigger 489-litre boot, petrol power and a D-segment sedan body.
