At the Cannes Film Festival, DENZA and Chopard unveil a spectacular electric Z9GT created for the amfAR gala, blending luxury, high technology, and charitable commitment.
In the heart of the Cannes Film Festival, where glamour and prestige intersect each year on the Croisette, an unexpected collaboration has captured the attention of automobile and high jewelry enthusiasts. For the 32nd edition of the amfAR gala, organized to support AIDS research, DENZA, a premium brand of BYD, and Chopard have combined their expertise around a unique creation: the DENZA Chopard Z9GT.
Born from the meeting of the premium manufacturer’s technology from the BYD group and the elegance of the Swiss house, this exceptional Z9GT transcends mere style. Designed specifically for the Cannes event, it will be auctioned to support amfAR’s charitable actions. A way for both brands to combine luxury with social commitment.
Fast and Glamour
Both outside and inside, every detail reflects this shared vision of refinement. The cabin features exclusive finishes by Chopard, with amethyst inlays directly integrated into the cockpit controls. The embroidered headrests, custom light signatures, and even the multimedia interface draw on the codes of the famous Swiss watchmaker.
To accompany this rolling creation, Chopard also designed two bespoke watches: a Happy Sport set with diamonds and an Alpine Eagle customized in DENZA’s colors. A duo conceived as the natural extension of this collaboration between design, emotion, and innovation.
