Denza Z EV supercar set for July 9 global launch at Goodwood

Denza, the premium luxury brand under BYD, has officially announced that its flagship all-electric supercar, the Denza Z, will make its debut at the 2026 Goodwood Festival of Speed in the UK on July 9, with market launch commencing on the same day. 

The Denza Z's global launch will be held in the UK

The new model will be offered in three variants: a hardtop coupe, a soft-top convertible, and a track-focused edition. In terms of dimensions, the hardtop version measures 4,780 mm in length, 1,990 mm in width, and 1,330 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2,780 mm. Its nearly two-meter width delivers an imposing, wide-body stance that punches above its class. 

A carbon-fiber roof comes as standard across the lineup, while a carbon-fiber front hood and an electrically adjustable rear spoiler are available as optional lightweight packages. The curb weight of the Denza Z lies between 2,220 and 2,290 kg, depending on the modification.

Power comes from a tri-motor setup rated at 500 kW + 340 kW + 340 kW, delivering a combined system output of 1,180 kW (approximately 1,604 Cv). That figure surpasses the 1,034 hp of the Porsche Taycan Turbo GT and the 1,020 hp of the Tesla Model S Plaid. The standard version achieves a top speed of 300 km/h, while the track edition raises that figure to 350 km/h. 

On the range and charging front, the Denza Z is built on an 800-volt high-voltage architecture and equipped with BYD’s second-generation Blade Battery.  At ambient temperatures, it can charge from 10% to 70% in just five minutes.

Beyond its powertrain figures that rival top-tier supercars, the Denza Z also integrates a host of core technologies developed entirely in-house by BYD. These include the e³ intelligent vehicle control platform, which enables independent control and steering of the rear-axle dual motors—resulting in a turning radius of just 4.62 meters. Other highlights include the Yunian-M intelligent magnetorheological suspension system, steer-by-wire technology, and a fully foldable steering wheel.

The launch of the Denza Z marks the completion of Denza’s full product portfolio across MPV, SUV, sedan, and supercar segments. In terms of market positioning, the Denza Z will target the high-end pure-electric sports car niche around the 500k RMB (~$ 73740) level, forming a high-performance lineup alongside the Z9GT.

The Goodwood Festival of Speed is held in Goodwood House, West Sussex. There is also a historic 3.8-km Goodwood Circuit located near the mentioned estate. This racing circuit broke ground in 1947. The 2026 Goodwood Festival of Speed runs from July 9 to July 12.

NIO’s 100,000-order surge signals a fresh fightback in China’s EV Market

A stronger model mix and rapid early take-up for new SUVs have lifted the Chinese EV maker back into contention, though sustained deliveries and margins remain the key proof points NIO ES9 SUV NIO Group’s latest order surge marks a sharp improvement in competitive momentum, with roughly 100,000 firm orders booked across its three brands in the four weeks to mid-June 2026, according to Goldman Sachs’ research . The same data put the group's two-week total above 47,000 units, suggesting that demand remained resilient after the initial launch spike for its flagship ES9 SUV. NIO sells through three brands : the premium Nio marque, the family-focused Onvo, and the compact Firefly. The surge reset the company's standing in a market it had trailed for much of the past year. The scale of the rebound was clearest in Goldman’s week-22 reading (May 25–31), when NIO’s weekly firm orders reached 38,810 units. That placed the company ahead of Geely’s Galaxy and Zeekr lines combined at 22,1...
