Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace vs Zeekr X
Verdict
The Zeekr X is RM7,790 cheaper yet much quicker, with 335 hp from its single motor and a 5.3-second 0-100 km/h time against the Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace’s 148 hp and 9.5 seconds. The Tiguan fights back with seven seats, a longer body and a 60-litre petrol tank, which matters if this is the family car for balik kampung runs. But the Zeekr’s 404-litre boot, 440 km EV range and standard AEB make it the sharper paper buy if five seats are enough.
Pick the Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace if you need seven seats, petrol refuelling and a larger-bodied SUV.
Pick the Zeekr X if you want the cheaper, quicker five-seat electric SUV with more listed boot space.
