Denza Z9GT (2026) | Expert Rating


Summary

The Denza Z9GT is an upmarket high-performance ‘shooting brake’ estate car that is scheduled to arrive on UK roads in the second half of 2026.

BYD-owned Denza is a Chinese brand that aims to challenge the sales of the likes of Porsche, Lexus and Genesis, and its Z9GT is the brand’s flagship model. This Expert Rating page refers to all-electric versions of the model. We will give the plug-in hybrid variant coverage on its own separate page.

A leftfield alternative to the Porsche Taycan, the Z9GT is powered by three separate electric motors and a 100kW battery, delivering over 950hp and reportedly a 0-62mph sprint time of 3.4 seconds. UK specifications are yet to be confirmed, but the estate can reportedly muster over 390 miles of travel on a single charge.

The model is yet to make its European debut at the time of writing – that’s coming in April. It is yet to be reviewed by the British motoring media just yet. We will update this page with more information and reviews, as well as safety and running cost data, as soon as those are available. Check back soon!
