An electric version of Denza's N9 large SUV has been revealed through Chinese government filings.

An electric version of the Denza N9 large SUV has been revealed in China through government filings uncovered by CarNewsChina. The electric version measures 5270mm long, 2030mm wide and 1830mm high on a 3125mm wheelbase, making it 233mm longer than a Volvo EX90. It offers a choice of five or six seats.

The N9 EV has the same width, height and wheelbase as the N9 plug-in hybrid version detailed in Australian approval documents, but its body is 12mm longer. The N9 PHEV received Australian Design Rule (ADR) certification in October 2026, with both six- and seven-seat configurations listed. However, Denza has not yet officially confirmed the N9 for its local lineup.

Both the N9 EV and the upcoming Z9 GT electric shooting brake, confirmed for the first half of 2027, use BYD's e3 'Yisanfang' architecture, which combines independent three-motor drive with rear-wheel steering. Charging specifications for the N9 EV have not yet been disclosed.
