DENZA has set out a 2027 timetable for bringing more of its God's Eye driver-assistance functions to European Z9GT owners. The announcement focuses on City Navigation on Driving Assistant, or CNOA, with software delivery planned through an over-the-air update.
According to DENZA, the system is being calibrated for local conditions before entering the required approval process under UN Regulation No. 171. The release describes intended support for urban tasks including traffic lights, roundabouts, junctions, lane changes around slower or parked vehicles, and responding to pedestrians and cyclists on narrow streets.
The driver remains responsible for the vehicle throughout. DENZA also describes monitoring the driver's gaze, head position and hands on the steering wheel as part of the proposed European implementation. This makes driver supervision central to the announcement, even when the system is handling several parts of an urban journey.
Z9GT hardware and rollout
The stated rollout concerns the DENZA Z9GT. The company says the necessary hardware is already standard, comprising one LiDAR sensor, 11 cameras, three millimetre-wave radars and 12 ultrasonic sensors. For owners, the next milestones to follow are the approved operating conditions, country availability and the actual software release.
The timing matters when comparing cars or discussing an update. In this October 2026 announcement, 2027 is the planned delivery window and local adaptation is still under way. The next published software and country rollout details will establish when individual owners can receive the functions. The hardware statement applies to the Z9GT configuration described by DENZA.
More DENZA models at Paris
The same release also presents the DENZA Z in Coupe, Spider and Racing forms. It describes a three-motor e3 Sports Car platform with 1,604 PS, a 76 kWh second-generation Blade Battery and FLASH Charging. BAO 5, Z9GT and D9 complete the broader Paris display. These vehicle announcements provide context for the brand's European expansion, while the CNOA software timetable remains the most directly relevant item for prospective Z9GT owners.
