The 2026 Denza B5 Base is the entry point to BYD's premium Denza brand in Australia, suiting buyers who want a serious off-road plug-in hybrid 4WD without spending Land Rover Defender money. Its standout strength is the body-on-frame ladder construction paired with a 31.8kWh BYD Blade battery, electrically-actuated front and rear differential locks, and a combined 400kW/760Nm 1.5-litre turbo PHEV powertrain that delivers 100km of NEDC electric range plus a 975km total range when the battery runs flat. One thing to consider: ANCAP awarded the B5 a five-star rating in 2025 with strong 86% adult and 95% child occupant scores, but Denza is brand-new in Australia with no resale history, so early adopters are still taking the brand-launch risk in exchange for a sub-$82,000 driveaway price for a properly capable PHEV 4WD.
Configure the BaseThe 2026 Denza B5 Leopard is the flagship of the B5 line and the more capable of the two trims, suiting buyers who want the full feature set on Denza's body-on-frame PHEV 4WD for $86,471 driveaway. Its standout strength is the addition of DiSus-P adjustable hydraulic suspension on top of the same 400kW/760Nm 1.5-litre turbo PHEV powertrain and 100km NEDC electric range as the Base, transforming ride quality on rough roads and adding a real height-adjustment trick for clearance, plus a five-star ANCAP rating shared with the Base. One thing to consider: at $5,000 over the Base RRP you only get the suspension and a few cosmetic upgrades, the powertrain is identical, and Denza has no track record on resale yet so the price premium is buying ride quality and presentation rather than any extra capability or safety hardware.
