<![CDATA[Denza Z9 GT (965 HP Tri-Motor) & BYD eMax 7 (M6 7-Seater MPV): UK, Europe & Australia Launch Discussion]]>BYD's model offensive at both ends of the market is ramping up fast: on one side we have the flagship luxury shooting brake Denza Z9 GT, and on the practical family/fleet side we have the BYD eMax 7 (M6) 7-seater electric MPV.

Denza Z9 GT (965 HP Tri-Motor) & BYD eMax 7 (M6 7-Seater MPV): UK, Europe & Australia Launch Discussion

1. Denza Z9 GT (EV & Super DM PHEV)

  • e3 Platform (Three Independent Motors): 1 front + 2 rear motors producing up to 710 kW (965 HP) on the pure EV version and 640 kW (870 HP) on the 2.0T PHEV version.
  • Rear-Wheel Steering (±10 degrees): Gives a 5.18-metre-long luxury GT car a turning circle of just 4.62 metres (tighter than a BYD Dolphin!) plus "Crab Walk" parallel parking into spaces barely longer than the car.
  • Interior: Dual built-in compressor refrigerators (front & rear armrests), Devialet 26-speaker audio, and zero-gravity Nappa leather seats.

2. BYD eMax 7 / M6 (7-Seater Family & Uber XL MPV)

  • 71.8 kWh Blade Battery: ~500 km WLTP city / 420 km combined range, available in 6-seat (captain chairs) or 7-seat (2-3-2) layout.
  • Huge gap in the AU/UK market right now for an affordable under-$55k AUD / £38k 7-seater EV!

Right now if you have 3 kids and need 7 seats in an EV, your only options are a $90k+ Kia EV9 or Mercedes EQB. A 7-seat Blade Battery MPV eligible for Australia's FBT-exempt novated lease under the LCT threshold will sell like hotcakes.
