We can also see new wheels and tires as well as exposed carbon fiber bodywork.
The latter shouldn’t be surprising as Denza has previously said the Z Special Edition will feature “race-grade dual-layer composite bodywork, including panels made completely from carbon fiber.”
The company has also said the car will be equipped with a “drag-reduction system that coordinates a front active diffuser and a rear wing flap to cut drag by up to 40%, while producing more than 4,409 lbs (2,000 kg) of downforce at 186 mph (300 km/h).”
The regular Z has a 76 kWh Blade Battery that feeds a tri-motor powertrain developing 1,582 hp (1,180 kW / 1,604 PS) and 914 lb-ft (1,240 Nm) of torque.
This enables the coupe to accelerate from 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) in 2.25 seconds, before hitting a top speed of 186 mph (300 km/h).
The Z Racing is even quicker as it hits 62 mph (100 km/h) in 1.96 seconds and has a top speed of 217 mph (350 km/h).
However, the Z Special Edition is the star of the show as it will have a track-grade thermal management system and a combined output in excess of 1,973 hp (1,471 kW / 2,000 PS).
Denza has claimed this will enable the model to rocket from 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) in less than 1.7 seconds.
Denza has said the car will “undergo additional development assessment” ahead of the record-breaking attempt, and details will be released in “due course.”
