BYD announced at the 2026 Paris Auto Show that the Denza Z9 GT will be the first of its cars in Europe to get God’s Eye City Navigation Driving Assistant, or CNOA. It’s due in 2027.
BYD says CNOA can drive through city streets with very little input from the driver. Don’t read that as self-driving. It’s a Level 2 system, so you still have to watch the road and be ready to take over at any moment.
The Z9 GT has been in the news before. It was the first BYD-built car with flash charging to reach Europe. Now it also carries BYD’s driver assistance debut in the region, and if that goes well, expect more BYD models to get it in the next few years.
