Verdict
The RM10,588 gap favours the Zeekr X, and it buys a 335 hp, 373 Nm rear motor, 5.3-second century sprint and a 66 kWh battery rated for 440 km. Its 200 kW DC charging is another major draw for an EV-ready Malaysian buyer. The Peugeot 3008 counters with a far more useful 591-litre boot against 404 litres, despite its 20 mm shorter wheelbase. It also carries lower annual road tax at RM120 versus RM395. Choose based on charging access and luggage needs, not outright pace.
Pick the Peugeot 3008 if you need the 591-litre boot, a space-saver spare tyre and lower RM120 annual road tax.
Pick the Zeekr X if you have dependable charging access and want 335 hp, 440 km of claimed range and substantially stronger equipment.
