Denza Z9GT Review
The Denza Z9GT looks smart, feels substantial and appears hugely impressive on paper.
Seeing it in person made me appreciate the design more than I expected. The long shooting-brake profile is elegant, the rear styling gives it plenty of presence and the interior seems suitably luxurious. I also like that Denza has chosen something bold and different for its UK introduction instead of playing it safe with another anonymous SUV.
There are still some significant questions. The £105,000 price is ambitious, the car is extremely heavy and early reports suggest its ride, software and finer details might not yet match the best established luxury cars.
Flash Charging could be the feature that changes the conversation completely, but only once the supporting network becomes widely available.
For now, the Z9GT is one of the most intriguing new cars coming to the UK. I like what I have seen, and the specification is difficult to ignore. What I really want now is the opportunity to get properly hands-on, live with the technology and find out whether it feels as impressive from behind the wheel as it does on paper.
From £105,000
