Overview

Images purporting to show the N9, the next Denza flagship SUV, have surfaced from Chi na. It has now been verified that this automobile would be a part of the Denza brand instead of the main BYD brand, despite earlier rumors in the Chinese media that it was called the Tang L.

Biggest SUV made by Denza

According to photos, this SUV is the biggest Denza model to date. Since the current SUV models are referred to as the N7 and N8, it stands to reason that the new vehicle will be designated the N9. The pictures show a roomy, sturdy design that reflects Denza's efforts to establish itself as a leader in the premium electric car industry.

Zhao Changjiang's affirmation

The general manager of sales at Denza, Zhao Changjiang, previously tweeted a picture of a sizable SUV that was camouflaged and labeled as the company's flagship. The automobile in these most recent spy photos is quite similar to the one in the previous tweet. This tweet reaffirms that the N9 is Denza's flagship vehicle, meant to rival other high-end SUVs on the market.

Specifications and Aspects of the Design

It's clear from the spy photos that the automobile is still a ways off—it will likely launch at least six months from now. It is evident that the lights' design has not yet been decided upon or installed. On the right side of the vehicle are fast and slow charging outlets, with one of the images displaying these exposed.

Comparative Analysis of Rivals

The photographs make the car appear enormous and likely comparable in size to the Li Auto L9 and Aito M9, which the Denza will most likely compete with. In order to maximize comfort, it might only have six seats and have a roomy and cozy third row.

Plans for the Future for Denza

Denza announced last year that it would launch eight new models in three years. Additionally, it stated that it would launch three flagship vehicles, the N9 SUV being one of them, with a release date of late 2024.

Anticipated Engine Choices

The Denza Z9 GT, another premium model, and the new vehicle are expected to share a similar powertrain configuration. As a result, both PHEV and completely electric variants should be anticipated. The Z9 GT electric vehicle includes a 230 kW motor on the front axle and two 240 kW motors on the rear axle. The BYD479ZQA 2.0T engine,  whi ch has a maximum power of 152 kW, powers the PHEV variant. It also includes three electric motors: two TZ220XYAV motors with a maximum capacity of 220 kW each are located on the back axle, while a 200 kW peak power TZ210XYD motor powers the front axle.

Measurements and Autonomous Driving Support

This should offer us an indication of the upcoming N9's dimensions, considering the Z9 GT is 5180 mm long and has a 3125 mm wheelbase. At the very least, higher-spec models of the Denza N9 will have some kind of driving assistance thanks to Lidar technology.

Denza's Trip

Initially, Denza was a 50:50 joint venture between Mercedes-Benz and BYD. Due to poor sales, Mercedes-Benz lowered its ownership to 10% in 2021. Since then, the company has grown steadily, specializing on opulent and cutting-edge electric cars.

In summary

These spy photos have definitely aroused intrigue while we wait for additional information about the Denza N9. Expectations are high because it has been confirmed that this SUV would belong to the Denza brand instead of BYD. Denza's roster is expected to grow significantly with the N9, which aims to redefine luxury electric SUVs.
