Regarding its design, the Denza Z9S comes equipped with a roof-mounted LiDAR system, an intelligent driving indicator known as the 'little blue light', semi-hidden door handles, and a retractable rear spoiler. The rear of the vehicle is likely to showcase an illuminated logo. Inside, the car features a two-tone cabin in purple and white, complemented by a floating central console screen and a large dashboard panel with a piano-finish.
