“This is a landmark moment in the Australian automotive industry,” he said.
“DENZA will offer a whole new range for consumers wanting a slice of luxury and the latest in innovation.
“It’s built for explorers, pioneers, and leaders. For those who see roads as invitations, not boundaries, we know DENZA will be one of the most exciting premium brand launches to date.”
The B5 uses a 145kW 1.5-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine paired with two permanent magnet synchronous electric motors, one on each axle.
This makes for a combined power and torque output of 505kW/760Nm.
Thanks to the 31.8kWh BYD ‘Blade’ lithium iron phosphate battery (LFP), the B5 has an electric-only range of 100km (WLTP) and a combined petrol-electric range of 1200km.
The seven-seater B8 combines a 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine with dual-electric motors to produce 550kW and 760Nm, allegedly achieving 0-100km/h in 4.8 seconds.
The dual-electric motors are powered by a 36.8kWh LFP battery, which has a claimed WLTP range of 100km.
Pricing and more detailed specifications will be revealed closer to the launch date.
