Denza B8

Denza B8

FROM $91,000

The Denza B8 arrived in Australia in late 2025 as the flagship of BYD’s premium sub-brand. This large SUV launched with a plug-in hybrid powertrain that combines a 2.0-litre turbo engine with dual electric motors. It features a sturdy ladder-frame chassis and is designed to compete with established luxury off-roaders.

The model originated in China where it is sold as the Fangchengbao Bao 8. For the Australian market, the name was simplified to Denza B8 to align with the brand’s local export strategy. This first-generation vehicle delivers 425kW of power and a 3500kg towing capacity, making it a capable choice for local families and enthusiasts.

The range includes six and seven-seat configurations to provide buyers with flexible layout options. It also secured a five-star ANCAP safety rating in early 2026, confirming its credentials as a modern contender in the competitive large SUV segment.

The line-up currently starts at $91,000 for the B8 7S and ranges through to $97,990 for the range-topping B8 6S.
