Denza, BYD’s (HKG: 1211, OTCMKTS: BYDDY) premium brand, has released interior design sketches for its Z9 sedan, scheduled to go on sale next month.
Denza shared two design sketches on Weibo today, giving a rough look at the Z9’s internals and getting the model ready ahead of its official launch.
According to one of the sketches, the Z9 will feature a landscape-oriented center screen and what appears to be another very long dashboard screen in front of the steering wheel.
Two of the three rear seats have wide legrests as a comfort feature.
It’s unclear whether the Z9’s final interior will match the design sketch.
Denza began pre-orders for the Z9GT, another model in the Z lineup, on August 20th, with pre-order prices ranging from 339,800 yuan ($47,890) to 419,800 yuan.
It then briefly debuted a regular sedan version of the model, the Z9, and started pre-ordering it for the same price. Denza said at the time that the Z9 would be launched and deliveries would begin in the fourth quarter of this year.
On October 24, Denza’s sales manager Zhao Changjiang said on Weibo that the company’s team is preparing for the launch of Z9.
Mr. Zhao said, “We will announce the release date as soon as possible depending on the progress of preparations, but it is expected to be next month, so please look forward to it.”
The Z9GT was officially launched on September 20th with a starting price of RMB 334,800 and is available in three plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) variants and two battery electric vehicle (BEV) variants.
Z9 was published in China’s regulatory filing catalog on September 13th, revealing its exterior and core specifications.
