A new SUV from Denza, a premium new energy vehicle (NEV) brand controlled by BYD, may not be too far from launch. Zhao Changjiang, general manager of Denza's sales division, shared six spy photos of the SUV on Weibo on December 20, showing what the model could look like.

Zhao hinted that the production version of the model would be highly similar to Denza's concept INCEPTION unveiled at the Chengdu auto show in August. He said that three of the six spy shots were taken by photographers and the other three by passersby.

 

In the comments section of the Weibo post, Zhao said the SUV is aimed at capturing the market for conventional internal combustion engine cars priced at around 400,000 yuan (US$ 57,360). He did not mention a launch date for the model, though local auto media outlet Yiche reported yesterday that it is expected to be released in the first half of 2023.
