It has been relatively slow to introduce new models but the D9 kick-started a new strategy when it made its debut in 2022. Denza is expected to follow it up with four more models in due course, with names making up the letters DENZA; the next could well be a seven-seat large SUV, called N8.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/media.autoexpress.co.uk\/image\/private\/s--5WZd3ZbL--\/f_auto,t_related-embed-mobile@1\/v1693814051\/autoexpress\/2023\/09\/BYD%20Seal%20U%20Munich.jpg\">New BYD Seal U electric SUV coming to the UK<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In the meantime, BYD UK believes that the D9 may be well positioned to find customers in the luxury limousine market\u00a0\u2013 a segment also now targeted by Lexus, with its LM. Denza\u2019s offering comes with a choice of plug-in hybrid or pure-electric powertrains, and two- or four-wheel drive, although there\u2019s no word yet on whether this variety would be available to UK buyers.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The EV version would be BYD\u2019s biggest-battery offering here, since its capacity is 103kWh; the car has a range of as much as 620km (385 miles), although this figure is calculated using China\u2019s less stringent NEDC testing process.<\/p>\n<p>The D9 on display in Munich had a six-seat, three-row layout and a cabin laden with tech, including no fewer than seven screens \u2013 three in the front cabin and a pair each for the middle-row passengers, with individual infotainment displays and small smartphone-sized controllers for the business class-style seats. Those seats also incorporate 10-way adjustment and a 10-point massage function.<\/p>\n<p>BYD is expected to make a decision on UK sales of the Denza D9 by the end of the year \u2013 with a potential arrival in showrooms in the second half of 2024. Given the battery size and cabin finish, it could conceivably be pitched above the firm\u2019s incoming UK range-topper, the Seal, which tops out at \u00a347,990.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Click here for our list of the best MPVs and people carriers on sale in the UK right now&#8230;<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.autoexpress.co.uk\/news\/360879\/new-denza-d9-could-be-luxury-mpv-option-uk-customers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BYD is looking hard at bringing its Denza luxury brand to the UK with the D9 set to become a<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":237178,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.8 -
