BYD is about to launch this luxury electric SUV with 623 miles of range

BYD is set to launch the Denza N8 EV next week, a large five-seat luxury electric SUV with a CLTC range of over 623 miles (1,000 km).

The Denza N8 initially went on sale in China in 2023 as a mid-to-large-size luxury SUV. It was available as a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) with six- and seven-seat configurations.

BYD is preparing to introduce an all-electric version that will deliver the same electric-only driving range as the PHEV did on a full charge and full tank of gas, combined.

“The king of large 5-seater pure electric vehicles,” as Denza calls it, will use BYD’s second-generation Blade Batteries and Flash Charging Technology. The setup delivers “a world-leading 1,003 km pure electric range,” under CLTC conditions, Denza claimed.

BYD’s 1,500 kW Flash Charging tech powers compatible vehicles from 10% to 70% in just five minutes. To go from 10% to 97%, it takes only nine minutes.

According to a regulatory filing released by China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) in August, the Denza N8 EV is 5,150 mm long, 1,999 mm wide, and 1,820 mm high, with a 3,075 mm wheelbase.

The Denza N8 EV will use a massive 130.15 kWh battery, providing a pure electric CLTC range of up to 623 miles (1,003 km).

BYD will offer a single rear-wheel-drive (RWD) or a tri-motor all-wheel-drive (AWD) powertrain. The RWD version uses a single motor producing either 320 kW (429 hp) or 370 kW (496 hp).
