BYD's luxury EV with 5-min fast charging and 500 miles range is headed overseas (electrek.co)

BYD’s luxury Denza Z9 GT, a large “shooting brake” EV with up to nearly 500 miles of WLTP range and a 10%–70% charge in about five minutes, is set to launch in Europe on April 8, 2026. The company says its Blade Battery 2.0 and Flash Charging will be rolled out first in Europe, with ultra-fast charging stations already operating at scale in China. The Z9 GT will come in single- and tri-motor versions, and BYD is also promoting it with a premium in-cabin “opera-house” entertainment concept.
