Côte d’Azur, France – October 13–17, 2025 – Against the sun-drenched backdrop of winding Mediterranean roads, Leapmotor recently hosted an exclusive Media Drive event, inviting leading international automotive journalists to experience the all-new Leapmotor B10. This electric C-SUV, designed to blend cutting-edge technology with everyday practicality, is poised to redefine expectations in the compact SUV segment and make intelligent electric mobility accessible to a wider audience.

A Concentrate of Technology and Innovation

The Leapmotor B10 embodies the brand’s core values of intelligent innovation, global accessibility, and sustainable mobility. As Leapmotor’s first model conceived specifically for international markets, it signals a defining moment in the company’s evolution from a domestic EV manufacturer into a global player. Built on the advanced LEAP 3.5 architecture, the B10 integrates smart connectivity, intuitive software, and a user-focused design, establishing a new benchmark for mainstream electric SUVs.

Engineered for European Life

Starting at just €29,900, the B10 demonstrates that high-quality EV technology can be attainable without compromise. Its development was guided by European needs, tested extensively at Italy’s renowned Balocco proving ground, and refined with features like right side-mounted charging ports to enhance convenience. The result is a compact SUV that is as comfortable navigating city streets as it is exploring coastal routes or hilltop villages.

Expressive Design and Interior Versatility

With dimensions perfectly suited for European roads—4,515 mm in length, 1,885 mm in width, and 1,655 mm in height—the B10 combines sleek, dynamic lines with a youthful, modern aesthetic. Inside, the cabin prioritizes comfort and flexibility, anchored by a 14.6-inch floating touchscreen that serves as the high-tech centerpiece. Spacious seating, versatile configurations, and smart storage solutions ensure the interior is both practical and inviting, offering one of the segment’s most generous passenger spaces.

Life-Enhancing Technology and Safety

Leapmotor’s commitment to intelligent design extends to every aspect of the B10. Powered by the Snapdragon 8155 chipset and the LEAP OS 4.0 Plus system, the cockpit offers immersive 3D visuals, multi-application display, and full remote control via the Leapmotor app. Over-the-air updates ensure the system evolves with time, while 17 ADAS features, a 360° camera, and a high-strength steel safety cage target a five-star E-NCAP rating. Sophisticated chassis tuning, multi-link rear suspension, and 50:50 weight distribution ensure confident handling across any road.

Efficient Electric Performance

The B10 is powered by a high-efficiency electric motor producing 218 hp and 240 Nm of torque, accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in just 8 seconds with a top speed of 170 km/h. Two battery options cater to different driving needs: the 56.2 kWh Pro pack offers up to 361 km WLTP range, while the 67.1 kWh Pro Max extends that to 434 km. Both support 11 kW AC charging and ultra-fast DC charging up to 168 kW, allowing a 30–80% charge in under 20 minutes.

Trim Options: LIFE and DESIGN

The B10 is available in two trims: LIFE and DESIGN. LIFE comes well-equipped with a 1.8 m² panoramic glass roof, 18″ alloy wheels, a 360° parking camera, and a comprehensive ADAS suite. The DESIGN trim elevates luxury with ECO leather seats, ambient lighting, and heated, ventilated, and electrically adjustable front seats, offering enhanced comfort and refinement.

Targeting Mainstream Innovation

More than a vehicle, the B10 represents a lifestyle solution for modern, eco-conscious drivers. Its audience includes small families, young professionals, and urban dwellers seeking a blend of performance, design, and affordability. By delivering intelligent technology in an accessible package, Leapmotor is shaping a future where electric mobility is no longer a premium option, but a standard expectation.

The Future Is Now

With the Leapmotor B10, the future of mobility is here—and it is for everyone. From its technology-packed interior to its efficient electric powertrain and European-focused design, the B10 demonstrates that sustainable, intelligent driving can be both attainable and enjoyable.

Leapmotor B10 — The future is here, and it’s for everyone.
