According to the pictures released by DENZA, the D9's front end is quite unmistakable by adopting the massive hauberk-styled grille, which is seamlessly connected with the headlights on both sides. The neatly designed side profile indicates a high indoor space utilization rate. The power sliding doors can be usually seen in MPV models, making passengers easier to getting in or out of the vehicle.

As for the squarish rear end, a light strip stretching across the MPV's width looks exceptionally recognizable when it is turned on.

The D9 rides on a chassis installed higher than that of a common car, while lower than an SUV. It will adopt a 2-2-3 seating arrangement. The rear bench seat can lay flat to allow passengers to have a rest. Besides, all variants of the MPV will come standard with double-glazed windows, and double sunroofs.
