The DENZA D9 DM-i marks the premium brand’s highly anticipated European debut, combining cutting-edge technology with first-class comfort for up to seven passengers. Designed as both a sophisticated family transporter and an executive mobility solution, the D9 delivers a flexible, luxurious, and ultra-connected experience that sets a new benchmark for MPVs.
At the heart of the D9 DM-i is DENZA’s Super Hybrid powertrain, providing a pure-electric range of 130 miles* and a combined WLTP range of 590 miles*. The 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine works seamlessly with dual electric motors to optimise efficiency and performance across city streets, suburban drives, and long-distance travel. Whether in EV mode or hybrid HEV mode, the system automatically adjusts power distribution, ensuring the perfect balance of driving enjoyment and energy economy.
Inside, the D9 creates a first-class travel environment. The second row features Air Spa 'zero-gravity' seats that recline up to 152° and include a 16-point massage system, heating, ventilation, and integrated 50W smartphone chargers. Front occupants benefit from heated and ventilated seats with 10-point massage functionality, while the third row offers heating, ventilation, and four-way electric adjustment, ensuring every passenger travels in comfort. The panoramic 1.1m² glass roof floods the cabin with natural light while blocking 99% of UV rays, complementing refined finishes and materials throughout the interior.
Flexibility defines the D9’s seating configurations. From four-occupant comfort mode to full-occupancy layouts, the vehicle adapts effortlessly to luggage and passenger needs, with trunk capacity ranging from 430 litres up to 2,310 litres when seats are fully folded. Electric sliding doors and tailgate with soft-close and foot-gesture operation make access seamless, even when hands are full.
Entertainment and connectivity are central to the D9 experience. DENZA’s DiLink system powers a 15.6-inch central touchscreen, dual 10.25-inch displays for driver and front passenger, and multiple rear screens, all compatible with Apple CarPlay™ and Google built-in. A 16-speaker Devialet audio system delivers theatre-grade sound, while six-zone voice recognition allows every passenger to control the cabin environment. Wireless charging pads, multiple USB-C and USB-A ports, and a climate-controlled seven-litre refrigerator ensure convenience and productivity on every journey.
Charging performance is equally impressive, thanks to DENZA’s FLASH Charging technology. The 58.5kWh Blade Battery can recharge from 10% to 70% in just five minutes and reach 97% in nine minutes, with minimal impact even in sub-zero temperatures. This enables extended electric operation and reinforces the D9’s versatility for urban commuting or long-distance trips.
The D9 DM-i also impresses with its driving dynamics. MacPherson-strut front suspension, multi-link rear suspension, and DiSus-C intelligent damping work together to deliver a smooth, comfortable ride on all surfaces. The AWD Super Hybrid system produces 353PS (260kW), accelerating from 0-62mph in 8.6 seconds and reaching a top speed of 112mph, proving that comfort and performance can coexist effortlessly.
Available in Elegance and Ultimate trims, the D9 offers extensive standard equipment, including advanced lighting, gesture-operated doors, Nappa leather, and premium wood accents. Buyers can choose from five exterior colours and three interior treatments, with DENZA’s European retail network providing a premium ownership experience including app-based service management and complimentary collection and return for maintenance.
With the D9 DM-i, DENZA has delivered an MPV that embodies its ethos: technology drives elegance. This high-tech, luxurious, and versatile vehicle is poised to redefine European expectations of first-class travel on wheels.
