Leapmotor Unveils All-New B10 at 2025 Shanghai Auto Show

Leapmotor took centre stage at the 2025 Shanghai Auto Show with the world premiere of the all-new B10, a cutting-edge electric compact SUV that highlights the brand’s bold ambition to lead in the global EV market.

The B10 represents a new chapter in Leapmotor’s growth strategy. Designed on the advanced LEAP 3.5 platform, the B10 combines intelligent engineering with affordability, offering both fully electric and extended-range versions to meet diverse global market needs. With its Qualcomm 8155 chipset, high-performance software, and Leapmotor’s proprietary CTC 2.0+ (Cell-to-Chassis) battery integration, the B10 delivers exceptional efficiency, interior space, and structural strength—all in a sleek, modern package.

Set to launch in China this year and arrive in European dealerships shortly after, the B10 is Leapmotor’s first global model, symbolizing its transition from a fast-growing Chinese NEV player to a serious global EV contender.

Key highlights of the Leapmotor B10 include:

• LEAP 3.5 Platform: An advanced EV architecture offering flexibility, modularity, and high efficiency.

• CTC 2.0+ Technology: Seamless battery-to-body integration for improved range, safety, and space utilization.

• Qualcomm 8155 Chipset: Delivering fast, responsive in-vehicle connectivity and infotainment.

• Global Readiness: Engineered for international markets with competitive features, quality standards, and pricing.

Leapmotor’s in-house manufacturing capabilities give it a distinct edge. The company produces around 65% of its core components internally, including electric motors, battery systems, and electronic control units—allowing for higher vertical integration, quality control, and cost efficiency. The B10 is assembled at Leapmotor’s advanced factory in Jinhua, Zhejiang Province, which also manufactures the upcoming C10 and the brand’s battery systems.

The B10 is part of Leapmotor’s broader global strategy, supported by Leapmotor International—a joint venture with Stellantis (51/49) formed to accelerate the international rollout of the brand’s tech-forward, affordable EVs. This partnership leverages Stellantis’ global distribution and after-sales network to bring Leapmotor products to customers across Europe, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, Africa, South America, and India.

With the debut of the B10, Leapmotor is not only introducing a compelling new vehicle but also signalling its intent to compete head-on with established global brands in the electric SUV segment.
