Chinese vehicle manufacturer BYD has officially launched its luxury sub-brand 'Denza' in the Indian automobile market. According to reports by 'Aaj Tak' and 'NDTV India', the company has entered India with two premium car models - the Denza D9 MPV and the Denza Z9 GT. Both these vehicles have been made available to Indian customers, for which the company has also started its official dealerships in the country's major cities.

Talking about the Denza D9 MPV, its ex-showroom price has been set at 90 lakh rupees. Customers can book this car by paying a token amount of 10 lakh rupees. On the other hand, the Denza Z9 GT model has been launched at an ex-showroom price of 1.57 crore rupees. The company has opened its showrooms for these cars in Gurugram, Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Chennai, and Hyderabad, from where customers can get more information and complete the booking process.

Regarding the features and capabilities of the Denza D9 MPV, reports state that this car is equipped with a powerful 115 kWh battery, which is connected to a single motor. This motor is capable of generating 456 bhp power and 365 Nm torque. The company claims that this car can provide a range of up to 730 kilometers on a single charge, which makes it extremely attractive for long-distance travel. However, the range on actual roads may depend on various factors.

In terms of design and comfort, the D9 MPV is equipped with modern features like multi-mode massage seats, a 15.6-inch floating touchscreen unit, a 10.25-inch 3D instrument cluster, and a two-spoke steering wheel. For safety, this car has 9 airbags, an ADAS suite, and a 360-degree camera facility. For entertainment, a music system with 16 speakers is also available. The exterior look of the car, with a large grille, vertical chrome slats, 18-inch alloy wheels, and two-piece taillights with a connected LED light bar, gives it a premium look. This car is available in four colors - Whale Sea Blue, Cosmos Black, Starry Night Grey, and Arctic White, while options of brown, beige, and black themes have been provided for the interior.

In the Indian market, the Denza D9 will directly compete with premium cars like the MG M9, Toyota Vellfire, Kia Carnival, Lexus LM, and Mercedes-Benz V-Class. It is believed that the arrival of this luxury brand by BYD will increase competition in the Indian electric and premium car segment.

BYD, or 'Build Your Dreams', is a leading Chinese automobile company that is mainly known for the production of electric vehicles. This company has captured a large share in the global electric car market and is now trying to establish a strong foothold in India through its luxury brand Denza. Previously, BYD had also attracted the attention of customers by launching its other cars in India.
