BYD's premium new energy vehicle (NEV) brand Denza has unveiled the interior design of the Denza N8, as it ramps up its preview of the new SUV.
Images posted by Denza on Weibo today show the N8 with a large glass roof, a large center screen and rear tabletops.
In China's increasingly competitive electric vehicle (EV) market, automakers are racing to offer features that will provide consumers with more convenience in their driving experience.
Denza was formed in February 2011 as a joint venture between BYD and Daimler, each holding a 50 percent stake, and Daimler was rebranded as Mercedes-Benz in February 2022.
BYD's stake in Denza increased to 90 percent last year, and Mercedes-Benz's stake decreased to 10 percent.
Denza is currently offering only the D9, an MPV that went on sale in August 2022 and began deliveries in October last year.
The N8 will be the third model in the rebranded Denza, with the second model, the N7, to be released in the first half of this year. The release date for the N8 has not yet been announced.
On March 29, Denza unveiled the exterior of the N8, which will carry over much of the design of the discontinued Denza X.
On April 11, the Denza N8 appeared in a catalog of models that will soon be allowed to be sold in China, published by the Chinese industry regulator.
The Denza N8 entered the catalog in four versions, including a single-motor all-electric version, a two-motor all-electric version, a DM-i plug-in hybrid version, and a DM-p plug-in hybrid version.
The single-motor version is equipped with a 230-kW peak power motor, and the dual-motor version has 230-kW and 200-kW peak power front and rear motors, respectively.
The model's length, width and height are 4,949 mm, 1,950 mm and 1,725 mm, respectively, with a wheelbase of 2,830 mm, according to the filing.
Denza delivered 10,526 vehicles in April, up 1.23 percent from 10,398 in March.
Denza has a chance to see monthly sales of more than 20,000 units this year, said Zhao Changjiang, general manager of the company's sales division, on Weibo on May 7.
Denza's new SUV model N7, which is on pre-sale, is expected to receive more than 6,000 new orders this month and is expected to reach 30,000 orders before its official launch, Zhao said.

NIO (NYSE: NIO) will launch the new ET7 at the Shanghai auto show next week, in addition to the launch of the new ES6.
"At Auto Shanghai 2023, we are bringing the NIO House to the show floor once again," the electric vehicle (EV) maker announced today.
The full range of NIO models equipped with the Banyan intelligent system will be presented, the new ES6 will debut and the 2023 ET7 will be officially launched, NIO said.
Banyan is the software architecture for NIO's NT 2.0 platform-based models, and the company's NT 1.0 platform-based models use a software architecture called Aspen.
The upcoming biennial Shanghai auto show will be held from April 18-27, with press days from April 18-19, professional visitor days from April 20-21, and general public admission from April 22-27.
The show will be held at the National Exhibition and Convention Center in Shanghai, and NIO's booth is located in Hall 6.1, Stand 6A01.
The N-Box augmented entertainment console and AR glasses developed by NIO will be equipped on the EC7 for the first time for the public to experience, according to the company.
This is the first time NIO has confirmed the existence of the new ET7, after rumors began to emerge last month.
At the end of last month, some local media reported that the current NIO ET7 had been discontinued and that the facelift would be optimized for exterior and interior details.
On March 28, an image circulating on social media Xiaohongshu showed that the 2023 ET7 will have a new gold exterior option and will be available with a tow hook option.
Inside, the improved ET7 will have several details optimized, including the seats, wireless charging panel power, and low-speed beep, according to the information in the image.
The NIO ET7 was launched at the NIO Day 2020 event on January 9, 2021, the company's first sedan, with deliveries beginning on March 28, 2022.
Deliveries of the ET7 remained around 3,000 units per month for the vast majority of the second half of last year, but the figures slipped to 1,379 units in December.
Regarding the new ES6, NIO mentioned on April 1 that the model will be unveiled at the Shanghai auto show.
Notably, like the ES7, which is known as the EL7 in Europe, the new ES6 will also be known as the new EL6 in international markets, according to a previous NIO press release.

XPeng starts warming up for G6, releases official ‘spy shot’
Update: Added more pictures about G6 shared by XPeng.
XPeng management previously said that the G6 will be unveiled at the Shanghai auto show and will be officially launched and delivered by the end of the second quarter, with a price range of RMB 200,000 - 300,000. | XPeng US | XPeng HK
XPeng (NYSE: XPEV) is starting to warm up for the G6, with the new model set to make its official debut at the Shanghai auto show in half a month.
The electric vehicle (EV) maker shared a "spy shot" of the G6 on April 3, showing the SUV's exterior but not revealing any other information.
On April 4, XPeng shared three additional images of the G6.
On March 17, XPeng management said during the company's fourth-quarter earnings call that the G6, a new energy SUV in the price range of 200,000 yuan ($29,020) to 300,000 yuan, will be unveiled at the Shanghai auto show and will be officially launched and delivered by the end of the second quarter.
The upcoming biennial Shanghai auto show will be held from April 18 - 27, with April 18 - 19 being the media days, April 20 - 21 being the professional visitors' days, and the general public being admitted from April 22 - 27.
XPeng's monthly sales target for the G6 is 2-3 times that of the P7, He Xiaopeng, the company's chairman and CEO, said on the call.
The G6's range will be significantly improved and will exceed expectations, and the interior space will be much larger than similar offerings from competitors, he said.
Earlier this month, the XPeng G6 appeared on a regulatory filing list in China, where its core specifications were disclosed.
The XPeng G6 has a length, width and height of 4,753 mm, 1,920 mm and 1,650 mm, respectively, and a wheelbase of 2,890 mm, according to those filing pages.
The G6 will compete with Tesla's (NASDAQ: TSLA) Model Y, XPeng management previously mentioned. The Tesla crossover has a length, width and height of 4,750 mm, 1,921 mm and 1,624 mm, respectively, and a wheelbase of 2,890 mm.
The XPeng G6 will be available in single-motor and dual-motor versions, the former with a 218 kW peak power motor and the latter with an additional motor with 140 kW peak power.
The upcoming G6 will be the swing factor and the model will need to be successful to make XPeng truly relevant in the market again, said Deutsche Bank analyst Edison Yu's team in a research note sent to investors on March 22.
XPeng's monthly sales target for the G6 is two to three times that of the P7, meaning at least 5,000 units per month for the G6 based on a trailing six-month average, Yu's team noted.
XPeng may price the G6 similarly to the Tesla Model Y, hoping to attract consumers with its sleeker design and updated interior, the team said.
