Advice on Lease Length with FBT Windback

Hi there, looking to enter my first NL but drowning in information/analysis paralysis at the moment. Zeekr 7X would probably be the dream car, but repayments are on the higher end of the budget. Went for a test drive in the Geely EX5 yesterday and the pricing was really sharp. Heaps of features I wanted for much less than the Zeekr. Here's my dilemma. I know the RWD version of the Geely is probably on the way next year, so would rather hold out for that.

My thought process at the moment is to take out the Geely on a shorter loan, say 3 years and then upgrade to a Zeekr at the end of the lease term (hopefully the price reduces a little once new models hit their lineup). But is this risky with all the FBT roll backs? With all the advancements in EV tech, I don't want to be locked in if things change drastically. Or should I just bite the bullet and get into the Zeekr now on a 5 year lease?

Any advice is much appreciated!
