Expect prices between 1.2 crore and 1.5 crore rupees. The Denza D9 is also launching on November 13, with an expected price between 80 lakh and 1 crore rupees.

November 2026 is shaping up to be a massive month for auto launches in India, and electric vehicles dominate the schedule. The Mercedes-Benz GLC Electric launched on November 4, Denza follows on November 13, the Mahindra Thar E is tentatively expected around November 15, the VinFast VF3 is due November 25, and the Mini Cooper SE Electric is expected November 27.

The Denza debut is BYD luxury push in India. The Z9 GT is a shooting brake, a low, long-roofed luxury wagon shape that is rare in the Indian market, and its 122.5 kWh battery is one of the largest fitted to any car launching in India this year. Denza is the brand BYD uses for its premium models, and the Z9 GT will test whether Indian luxury buyers will pay over a crore for a Chinese luxury badge.
