Launched in late 2024 as one of the automotive market’s big surprises, the Leapmotor C10 continues to expand and consolidate its presence in the D-SUV segment with the arrival of new extended-range versions, which can now be ordered and reserved, at a price similar to that of a 100% electric vehicle in its class, anywhere in the Leapmotor Network in Spain.Designed to take this SUV as far as possible without recharging, the Leapmotor C10’s new REEV technology combines the performance of a 100% electric drive train, equipped with a 28.4 kWh battery, with a small 1.5-liter 12 V gasoline engine offer up to 974 km of range according to WLTP protocol.
Electric propulsion is always what drives the Leapmotor C10 REEV, which features regenerative braking to optimize the 145 km range provided by the battery. When the energy reserves are depleted, the heat engine goes into action only to recharge the battery without having to plug in the vehicle. In this way, the REEV version of the C10 becomes an ideal alternative for long trips, offering more than enough range to travel nearly 1,000 kilometers without having to stop at a charging station.
