New spy shots have emerged of the Denza N9 SUV, this time including a picture of the interior. The Denza N9 will be the flagship SUV for BYD’s Denza range and will fulfill a similar role to the Denza Z9 GT in the range. The car is expected to launch by the end of 2024.

A new image has emerged which shows an almost Range Rover look to the front. We can see two slender air intakes at the top of the bottom. The light clusters have not been finalized yet. However, from the test lights, we can see where the lights will be located, and this also gives us some idea of the shape of the final clusters. Chinese media believes that the car pictured is a plug-in hybrid version. More apparent in this shot than in previous shots is the running board, which appears quite wide.

We still have no clearer idea of the N9’s size other than that it is big. For reference, the Z9 is 5180 mm, and it is safe to say that the N9 should be at least similar in length. It will ride on 22-inch close-spoked wheels. There is a spoiler on the back of the roof, and the N9 is expected to have a through-type tail light.

From the interior spy shot, we can see that the N9 should look quite similar to the Z9 GT, which has now been fully exposed. Although this spy shot is not particularly clear, we can make out a 4-spoke steering wheel, which seems to be the same as in the Z9. Also carried over is the drive selector with physical buttons behind it. However, the angling of the center console does seem to be shallower. In front of the gear selector is a dual wireless mobile phone charging pad, and behind it are two drink holders, which appear on the N9 to be square rather than round on the Z9. The center console seems to have a floating design with storage space below. Clearly visible in the shot are two screens, the central infotainment unit, along with an LCD instrument panel in front of the driver. We can also probably make out a third screen in front of the passenger, and it is pretty safe to say that the N9 will have one.

The Denza Z9 GT attracted a lot of attention in China because it has two fridges. Denza justifies this supposed extravagance by saying that one could be used for cooling while the other is used for heating. It’s highly likely that the Denza M9 will also include the same setup.

Powertrain may also be carried over from the Z9 and will almost certainly consist of a three-motor setup. For reference, the Z9 in its all-electric version has a 230 kW front motor while it has two electric motors at the rear, each with a peak power of 240 kW, giving a combined total of 710 kW. The PHEV version of the Denza Z9 GT gets a BYD479ZQA 2.0T engine and three electric motors. Maximum power of the engine is 152 kW, and the front motor is 200 kW while both rear motors are 220 kW each.
