A buyer eyeing a family‑friendly premium MPV will notice that Denza’s D9 drops into the ₹80‑90 lakh bracket with a 600 km NEDC range, a figure that keeps it in line with MG M9 but pushes the battery size up to 103.36 kWh. The price points to a serious entry into the luxury EV segment, where buyers now weigh range, seating comfort and power.
Speaking of power, the front‑wheel‑drive model delivers 313 hp and 360 Nm, while the all‑wheel‑drive version steps up to 373 hp and 470 Nm. Both rely on a single 103.36‑kWh pack, but the AWD variant may feel slightly heavier on the battery, affecting real‑world range compared to the claimed 600 km.
Inside, the D9 packs a seven‑seat layout with captain’s chairs in the second row that come with electric adjustment, heating, ventilation and even massage. The cabin also sports a 15.6‑inch touchscreen, a 10.25‑inch digital dash and a 12‑inch AR HUD, all of which are standard on the global version. These tech touches aim to make long drives feel less like a commute.
Safety and rivals matter too. The D9 offers eight airbags, a 360‑degree camera and Level 2 driver‑assist, matching the MG M9’s baseline safety suite. However, buyers should wait for the India‑specific safety spec sheet before pricing the D9 against Toyota Vellfire or Lexus LM, which carry different feature bundles.
The launch is slated for 13 Nov 2026, with dealerships expected to start stocking the car in major metros by early 2027. Keep an eye on the final trim list and any government duty relief that could shift the price to the lower end of the ₹80‑90 lakh range, as that could tip the scales for family buyers.
As the Indian EV landscape grows, the D9’s arrival could force rivals to rethink their MPV strategy and push for larger batteries or more aggressive pricing. For now, the D9 offers a tangible option for buyers who need space, power and a luxury feel without stepping into a foreign brand.
