BYD’s Denza Z9 GT Specs and Feature
The Denza Z9 GT featured a tri-motor setup pack that provided nearly 1,000 hp combined power. It is built on BYD’s e3 platform and provides a 308 hp (230 kW) front and dual rear electric motor with 644 hp (480 kW).
It is powered by a 100 kWh battery pack and offers CLTC range of over 391 miles (630 km). On the other hand, the PHEV variant gets up to 683 miles (1,100 km) range.
Talking about the size the Denze Z9 GT is 5,180 mm long, 1,990 mm wide, and 1,500 mm tall or about the size of the Porsche Taycan Turbo GT (4,968 mm long, 1,998 mm wide, 1,378 mm tall) or Panamera GTS (5,053 mm long, 1,937 mm wide, 1,417 mm tall).
It is the first time that a luxury GT features BYD’s 9000 smart cockpit, developed in-house with TSMC, and can support up to 11 connected screens.
To make it look more classy the interior of the EV includes a 13.2-inches driver display, 17.3-inches infotainment and 13.2-inches passenger display screens. Along with that it also has a 50-inches augmented reality head-up display (HUD).
Automakers have already confirmed that the Denza Z9 GT will launch in Europe at a lower price than its luxury rivals. BYD will also launch a sedan variant that was shown last year.
