On December 18th, BYD made a major announcement: its 15 millionth new energy vehicle (NEV) officially rolled off the production line. Frankly speaking, this number is quite impressive. It took BYD 13 years to reach its first 1 million NEVs, but only a little over a year to jump from 10 million to 15 million. Just last November, it sold nearly 480,000 units in a single month, and cumulative sales from January to November this year exceeded 4.18 million units. Such growth speed is unprecedented—joint-venture brands would have taken more than a decade to catch up in the past. Chinese brands have truly achieved "remarkable acceleration" in the new energy sector.

And it is the Denza N8L that shoulders this milestone. When talking about this model, it differs significantly from similar-class models of traditional overseas brands. In terms of design, it abandons the conservative style of foreign brands. The L-shaped front headlights look sharp and dynamic, and a lidar is directly mounted on the roof, enabling navigation-assisted driving on highways and urban roads in the future.

The side features hidden door handles, with sleek body lines.With a length of 5.2 meters and a wheelbase of over 3 meters, it offers more spacious interior than many large overseas SUVs. The interior does not clutter with complex buttons—a 17.3-inch central control screen takes center stage, and the passenger seat also has an exclusive screen. Even the chip is 4nm, supporting dialect recognition for voice control and role-playing functions. It is much more flexible than the infotainment systems of many overseas brands, making it easy for the elderly and children to operate during family use.

In terms of power, the Denza N8L hits the mark for many people's needs. Equipped with a 2.0T plug-in hybrid system, it accelerates from 0 to 100km/h in just 3.9 seconds, outperforming many similar-class overseas models. What's more, it is fuel-efficient: the CLTC pure electric range reaches 230km, eliminating the need for refueling during daily commutes. Even for long-distance trips, the comprehensive range can reach 1,300km, so there's no need to constantly search for gas stations.

Unlike some overseas brands that either have underpowered engines or impractical short pure electric ranges, the Denza N8L successfully combines "speed" and "efficiency". The chassis is also equipped with Yunlian-A technology, ensuring stability when driving on rough roads or turning, which is more suitable for family use than the stiff tuning of overseas brands.

Regarding overseas exports, BYD has shown strong momentum in recent years. Previously, its 14 millionth NEV rolled off the production line at its Brazilian factory, and even Brazilian President Lula became an owner—this reflects the recognition of overseas markets. Compared with traditional overseas brands, BYD has tangible advantages: it holds core technologies in its own hands, such as the Blade Battery, which addresses many people's concerns about NEV safety.

In countries with high oil prices, the plug-in hybrid system is much cheaper to use than fuel-powered cars and does not rely on charging piles. If the Denza N8L is exported to Europe, America, or Southeast Asia in the future, its advantages in space, power, and other aspects may break the stereotype that "Chinese high-end cars are not as good as overseas brands". Of course, overseas markets also pose challenges, such as the need to gradually adapt to local regulations and user habits, but with solid technological foundation, these issues can be resolved.

In fact, the roll-off of BYD's 15 millionth NEV is not just a numerical milestone, but more like a "coming-of-age ceremony" for China's automobile industry. As the model marking this milestone, the Denza N8L not only demonstrates BYD's technological strength but also showcases the potential of Chinese brands in the high-end market. We no longer have to follow in the footsteps of overseas brands—we can also produce high-quality cars that satisfy consumers. In the future, both domestically and overseas, as long as we maintain this dedication to technology, BYD and Denza will surely go further, and Chinese consumers will have more confidence when choosing cars.
