Verdict
At RM269,888, the Maxus MIFA 9 is RM34,912 cheaper and its 1,010-litre boot is far more useful than the Zeekr 009’s 574 litres for airport runs with seven aboard. The Zeekr answers with 335 hp, 604 km range and 150 kW DC charging, against 241 hp, 435 km and 120 kW for the Maxus. Its 7.9-second 0-100 km/h time also beats 9.2 seconds. Malaysian buyers wanting the better-equipped executive shuttle should pay up for the 009; those prioritising luggage room and purchase cost should take the MIFA 9.
Pick the Maxus MIFA 9 if a RM34,912 lower price and a 1,010-litre boot matter more than stronger performance, longer range and rear-seat luxuries.
Pick the Zeekr 009 if you want 604 km of range, 335 hp and captain’s chairs with massage, ventilation and ottomans.
