BYD’s Denza has released details on the Z9 sedan’s color options, specifications, and pre-sale pricing. It will launch at the Guangzhou Auto Show on November 15 with a limited-time starting price of 334,800 yuan (47,100 USD). Positioned as a flagship luxury model alongside the Z9 GT wagon, the Denza Z9 will offer fully electric and plug-in hybrid (PHEV) powertrains.

The Z9 is available in four body colors — starry black, starlight gray, midnight purple, and moonlit beige—and two interior schemes: beige and brown. Its substantial 5.2-meter body and 3,125 mm wheelbase give it a stretched, streamlined profile, while chrome-plated, multi-spoke rims add a touch of sophistication. Its front and rear styling feature elements like a continuous bonnet line, slanted A-pillars, and a large diffuser at the back.

Denza offers the Z9 in both PHEV and BEV configurations. The PHEV model combines a 2.0-liter turbocharged internal combustion engine (ICE) producing 152 kW (204 hp) with three electric motors, delivering a combined output of 640 kW (858 hp) and a mixed range of up to 1,100 km. The BEV version features three electric motors with a combined power output of 710 kW (951 hp) and a 100 kWh battery for a range of up to 630 km. The Z9 also integrates Denza’s Yi-Sanfang technology, allowing advanced maneuverability modes, including precision turning, compass U-turn, and intelligent crab-walking.

The Denza Z9 includes a series of digital displays: a 13.2-inch digital instrument cluster, a 17.3-inch central touchscreen, a 3.2-inch passenger display, and additional screens for rearview mirror adjustments and climate control. Rear passengers also have dedicated screens mounted on the front seats for personalized climate controls. The model includes a 50-inch augmented reality head-up display, wireless phone chargers, and a Devialet audio system with up to 26 speakers.

The Denza Z9 sedan will join BYD’s other models in the luxury segment, such as the D9 minivan (see specs) and N7 (see specs).
