DENZA has today confirmed the Z9GT will join its expanding Australian lineup, withe new performance vehicle unveiled at the 2026 Melbourne Motor Show. It offers 1036km of range and an astounding 850kW of power.
It will be the first model sold in Australia with BYD’s next-generation Blade Battery 2.0 technology and FLASH ultra-fast charging, with sites currently being built at DENZA dealres in Melbourne, Sydney and Adelaide.
Expected to be operational during Q4 (following Z9GT deliveries from Q3), the new technology allows for up to 1500kW DC capability, meaning ‘filling up’ from 10 to 97 per cent is expected to take approximately nine minutes (no that’s not a typo).
The Z9GT rides on the brand’s new e3 platform which features a world-first three driving motors for unprecedented performance and maneuverability. The grand tourer redefines fast, offering supercar-rivalling performance with EV precision.
System output is expected to allow for a zero to 100km/h sprint time in 2.7 seconds. It will be the first vehicle to feature advanced DiSus-A air suspension, which together with the e3 platform, ensures the Z9GT remains composed, confident and comfortable at all times.
Even when the unfortunate happens, such as a tyre blowout, which can occur when driving long distances on Australian roads. The onboard software helps manage a blowout at highway speeds in milliseconds, by actively controlling power, steering and braking at the same time.
The Z9GT is a vision bought to life by head of design Wolfgang Egger, who described the sculptured exterior design and bespoke interior as the culmination of a “creative university” involving more than 1,200 designers and engineers from around the word.
Inside, the cabin delivers a distinctive interpretation of modern luxury, which pays tribute to centuries of Chinese mastery in exquisite design and surface finish quality. Highlights include premium Nappa leather seating with massage, ventilation and extended leg rests.
A 50-inch augmented reality head-up display, Devialet 3 premium audio, ambient lighting with 128 colour selections, and a built-in refrigerator.
“The DENZA Z9GT proves that electrification can deliver not just efficiency, but exhilarating performance, extraordinary safety and genuine long-distance usability,” DENZA Australia COO Mark Harland said.
Further details, including local specifications and pricing will be announced closer to the Z9GT’s on-sale date in Q3.
