DENZA B8 Super Hybrid priced from $91,000 as premium seven-seat SUV enters Australia

Designed as a premium large SUV for families and executive transport, the B8 blends luxury, electrification and genuine four-wheel-drive capability. It will be offered in both seven-seat (7S) and six-seat (6S) configurations, targeting buyers who want space, comfort and long-distance touring ability without moving to a full battery-electric vehicle.

The B8 is built on BYD’s advanced DM-O (Dual Mode Off-Road) super-hybrid platform, enabling EV-first driving for daily use while delivering long-range plug-in hybrid capability for road trips and towing.

DENZA Australia has confirmed two B8 variants, priced before on-road costs.

Orders for both variants are now open, with the B8 launching alongside DENZA’s first Australian showroom and a national dealership roadshow.
