BYD’s updated Denza Z9 GT pure electric station wagon is the world’s longest range BEV with a CLTC range of up to 1,036 km, equipped with a 122.496 kWh Blade battery pack, according to an official announcement.

BYD continues to lead China’s EV range rankings. It is worth pointing out that BYD’s updated Denza Z9 BEV has a CLTC range of 1,068 km according to Chinese MIIT filing. At this time, it is not clear why BYD did not declare this model as the world’s longest range BEV.

The updated Denza Z9 GT will continue to be available in both BEV and PHEV variants.

The BEV will be offered in RWD and AWD, equipped with two battery pack capacities: 102.33 kWh and 122.496 kWh, providing five CLTC range options: 820 km, 860 km, 880 km, 1,002 km, and 1,036 km.

The newly added RWD is equipped with a 370 kW (496 hp) electric motor and has a top speed of 240 km/h. The AWD boasts a 230 kW (308 hp) front electric motor and two 310 kW (416 hp) rear motors, for a combined power output of 850 kW (1,140 hp), which is an increase of 140 kW (188 hp). Its top speed is 270 km/h.

The PHEV features a 63.82 kWh battery pack, nearly double that of the current model, providing a CLTC pure electric range of 400 km. Its powertrain consists of a 2.0T engine and three electric motors. The engine has a maximum power output of 152 kW (204 hp) and the three electric motors have a combined output of 640 kW (858 hp). Its top speed is 230 km/h.

Dimensionally, the updated Denza Z9 GT remains consistent, measuring 5195 (5180) mm in length, 1990 mm in width, and 1480 (1500) mm in height, with a wheelbase of 3125 mm.

Symmetrical cockpit layout

Inside the cabin, the cockpit continues the symmetrical layout with a 17.3-inch central control screen and dual 13.2-inch 2.5K screens, supporting ten-screen linkage and voice recognition, powered by a 4nm DiLink smart cockpit chip.

For advanced driving assistance functions, the updated Denza Z9 GT comes standard with BYD’s DiPilot 300 “God’s Eye” B 5.0 system.
