KatadataOTO – The selection of luxury MPVs is becoming more varied with the arrival of manufacturers from China. While Japanese manufacturers have hybrid models, Chinese brands present another alternative in the form of BEVs (Battery Electric Vehicles), also known as electric cars.

Most recently, at the start of 2025, BYD officially brought its sub-brand, Denza, to the Indonesian market. The model introduced is the Denza D9, a luxury electric-powered MPV.

BYD states that the Denza D9 is not positioned as a rival to the Toyota Alphard, but is expected to add to consumer options and contribute to the segment.

It should be noted that the Alphard is not an electric car. However, it is equipped with hybrid technology, filling out Toyota's electrification lineup in Indonesia.
