For Filipino families who want space without giving up comfort, the DENZA D9 DM-i offers a fresh alternative. This full-size MPV from the premium new energy vehicle brand is designed to handle daily commutes, weekend road trips, and everything in between—all while wrapped in modern luxury.
Under the hood, the D9 DM-i runs on a Super DM-i system that pairs a 1.5-liter turbocharged gasoline engine with dual electric motors. The combined output of 400hp and 681 Nm means it won’t feel sluggish, even with seven passengers on board.
It also comes with all-wheel drive and a total driving range of up to 980 kilometers on a full tank and full charge—reassuring for drivers who aren’t quite ready to go fully electric.
Powering the electric side of things is BYD’s 40kWh Blade Battery. Built on BYD’s e-Platform 3.0 architecture, the D9 achieves a refined balance of efficiency, safety, adaptability, and ride comfort. DENZA offers reliability and long-term ownership confidence with an 8-year/160,000km battery warranty.
Inside, the D9 leans heavily into comfort. Nappa leather seats wrap all three rows, while a 15.6-inch infotainment screen and a 14-speaker Dynaudio sound system anchor the cabin.
Second-row passengers get zero-gravity seats with heating, ventilation, and even massage functions. Other thoughtful features include wireless charging, power sliding doors, ambient lighting, and a built-in refrigerator.
Rounding out the experience is the DENZA App, which lets owners check on their vehicle, monitor charging, track its location, and control key features straight from their phone.
The all-new DENZA D9 DM-i is available in Whale Sea Blue, Cosmos Black, Arctic White, and Starry Night Grey, with a retail price of P4,298,000.
