Zeekr X

Verdict

At RM139,800, the GWM Haval H6 is RM19,000 below the Zeekr X and brings a far larger 560-litre boot, useful for family luggage. Its 7.7-second 0-100 km/h time is adequate, but the Zeekr’s 335 hp motor cuts that to 5.3 seconds and adds a 66 kWh battery with 440 km of EV range. For Malaysian ownership, the H6’s RM120 annual road tax and seven-year/200,000 km vehicle warranty favour the hybrid; choose the Zeekr if home or public charging suits your routine.

Haval H6

Pick the GWM Haval H6 if you want the lower purchase price, RM120 road tax, 560-litre boot and longer seven-year/200,000 km warranty.

X

Pick the Zeekr X if you can charge an EV and want 440 km range, 5.3-second acceleration and its stronger 335 hp motor.
