Source: Denza BYD and Denza are slowly rolling out the refreshed models worldwide, with the firm recently announcing a European launch for the Z9 GT, where it will retail for more than 101,000 euros (119,000 USD). Alongside BYD’s newly refreshed models, the D9 and Z9 GT, regardless of powertrain or trim level, will now be capable of BYD’s flash charging capabilities: 5 minutes from 10% to 70% 9 minutes from 10% to 97% Only 3 minutes slower at -30°C Denza D9 The D9 MPV retails between 359,800 and 469,800 yuan (52,800 and 69,000 USD). EV models get a 115 kWh LFP pack made in-house by BYD, enabling a CLTC range of 800 km on FWD trims, which get a 340 kW (456 hp) motor at the front. AWD trims get an additional 70 kW motor at the back, bringing the total motor power to 410 kW (550 hp), but CLTC range is lowered to 750 km. PHEV models come standard with AWD, combining a 115 kW (154 hp) 1.5-litre turbocharged engine up front with a 200 kW (268 hp) motor, and this works in tandem with a 45 kW (60 hp) motor out back. Thanks to BYD’s new ‘Heyuan’ hybrid platform, PHEV D9s now come with larger 66.5 kWh LFP batteries, good for 401 km of EV CLTC range. Denza Z9 GT The Z9 GT retails between 269,800 and 369,800 yuan (39,600 and 54,300 USD). EV models begin with base RWD trims, combining a single 370 kW (496 hp) rear motor with a 102.3 or 122.5 kWh LFP pack, good for 880 or 1036 km of CLTC range. Go for the range-topper EV, and the Z9 GT now gets a triple-motor AWD drivetrain built on BYD’s e3 platform. A single 230 kW (308 hp) front motor works in tandem with two rear motors rated at 620 kW (831 hp) combined, and the car puts out a total motor power of 850 kW (1140 hp). The bigger 122.5 kWh pack is present here, though the CLTC range is shortened to 820 km. PHEV Z9 GTs come standard with AWD and the e3 tri-motor platform, now working together with a 152 kW (204 hp) 2-litre turbocharged engine up front. Total output power is rated at 640 kW (858 hp), with a 63.8 kWh LFP pack achieving 401 km of CLTC EV range. More on Denza Denza’s domestic deliveries, April 2025 to March 2026. Source: China EV DataTracker According to China EV DataTracker, Denza delivered 6,762 units domestically in March 2026. Sales reached a brief peak at the end of 2025, coinciding with the gradual phase-out of NEV subsidies. Unfortunately, Denza’s domestic performance has cratered in 2026, with monthly figures failing to exceed 10,000 units. Denza has a strong overseas performance, and has introduced BYD’s Fang Cheng Bao (FCB) models under its own marque. Denza currently markets the FCB Bao 5 and Bao 8 SUVs as the D5 and D8, respectively. It remains to be seen if flash-charging can inject new life into the brand’s domestic lineup.
