Europe, you are next

What’s more interesting is that this sports car with the Denza logo will not be sold only in China, it may also be sold in Europe. Denza will make its Old Continent debut in 2025 with the Z9 GT, an electric sports car that sounds like a great choice to expand its lineup.

The electric car is expected to debut at the 2025 Shanghai Auto Show in April, exactly one year after the concept car was unveiled. According to local media “Autohome”, its starting price in China is about 300,000 yen (approximately $41,200), making it more affordable than any Porsche 911 model despite its high performance level.
