BYD’s luxury brand Denza is staging a European push for its Z9GT electric grand tourer, with actor Daniel Craig fronting the campaign. The car will debut at Paris’ Palais Garnier in early April. The five-door shooting brake, built on Denza’s e3 platform, is offered in fully electric and plug-in hybrid variants; the top EV version features a 122 kWh Blade Battery 2.0, tri-motor AWD, and a CLTC range of 1,036 km. BYD’s Flash Charging technology delivers a 10-80% charge in roughly five minutes via 1,500 kW chargers, with 200-300 ultra-fast stations planned across Europe by mid-2026.
