Breakthrough technology |
Easy3C Intelligent Chassis Control |
No tire blowout, no side-blowing in strong winds, no slippage on wet roads – active stability across the entire speed range. |
|
Security system |
China Insurance Research Institute (C-IASI) All-A Grand Slam |
The world's first vehicle to achieve a full G+ rating in four categories: crashworthiness, occupant safety, pedestrian protection, and auxiliary safety. |
Body Structure: Constructed using Baosteel’s 2000MPa ultra-high-strength steel, an integrated hot-stamped front floor frame, and a dual-ring anti-collision beam structure—creating a "mobile safety fortress." Passive Safety: Features 9 airbags, 14 structural cavities, and extra-long side curtain airbags spanning 2.6 meters. It is the only vehicle in the industry equipped with dual-chamber far-side airbags, providing enhanced protection for rear-seat passengers.
"Three-Electric" System Safety: The Blade Battery has passed the China Automotive Technology & Research Center's (CATARC) No. 001 Certification for High-Quality PHEV Batteries. Its underbody impact resistance reaches 1500J—far exceeding the national standard of 800J.
Cybersecurity: The vehicle-cloud system has obtained ISO/SAE 21434 automotive cybersecurity certification, and its data encryption level meets financial-grade standards.
Extreme Environment Validation: The entire model lineup has successfully completed rigorous testing in extreme conditions—including temperatures as low as -40°C, scorching heat of 50°C, and altitudes of 5,000 meters—ensuring global applicability.
Collaborative DNA: DENZA is a brand jointly developed by BYD and Mercedes-Benz, seamlessly blending cutting-edge Chinese intelligent technology with rigorous German engineering standards.
Technology Export: Key technologies—including "Flash Charging," the "e³ Platform," and the "DiSus-A Suspension System"—have secured international patents and possess the necessary certifications for market entry in Europe, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East.
Manufacturing System: Built upon BYD's "Intelligent Island Manufacturing System (I2MS)," the assembly line boasts a 52% automation rate. Assembly precision reaches an impressive 0.05mm, with the error rate approaching zero.
Strategic Significance: This launch marks a historic milestone: the first time a Chinese brand has entered the global premium market with a flagship product defined by a "trinity" of capabilities—ultra-fast energy replenishment, full-stack intelligent technology, and a luxurious user experience—representing a vehicle that is neither an import, nor a mere rebadged model, but a purely self-developed innovation.
