Verdict
At RM79,800 versus RM299,800, these two answer very different briefs. The Nissan NV200 is the working tool: two seats, a 4,200-litre load bay, 1.6-litre petrol power and a 5MT. The Zeekr 009 is the chauffeur-style EV MPV, with seven seats, 335 hp, 373 Nm, a 116 kWh battery and 604 km of range. For a Malaysian buyer, the Nissan saves RM220,000 and carries far more cargo; the Zeekr spends that money on space for passengers, performance, safety kit and cabin tech.
Pick the Nissan NV200 if you need a lower-cost commercial van with two seats, a huge 4,200-litre cargo area and petrol refuelling.
Pick the Zeekr 009 if you want a seven-seat executive EV MPV with 604 km range, stronger performance and far more comfort and safety equipment.
