Leapmotor B10: the competitively priced electric SUV arrives in Italy.

the new 100% electric compact SUV that aims to rewrite the rules of the C-segment. With a launch price starting from 26,900 euros , the B10 aims straight at the heart of a rapidly expanding market segment, leveraging an accessible positioning, cutting-edge technological equipment and a modern yet balanced design.

The launch of the Leapmotor B10 isn't just the arrival of a new model: it represents the first step in the Leapmotor International project, the joint venture between the Chinese startup and Stellantis , which aims to gain significant market share in Europe with a range of competitively priced electric vehicles. This is an ambitious project, in which the B10 plays a pioneering role.

European design and top-of-the-segment habitability

From first glance, the Leapmotor B10 exudes dynamism and rationality. Its proportions, measuring 4.51 meters in length, fit perfectly into both urban traffic and country roads. The clean lines and well-sculpted surfaces evoke a modern yet not overly futuristic aesthetic, speaking a language familiar to European audiences.

The interior reflects the same philosophy, offering ample space for all occupants, premium materials, and a wealth of technology. The centerpiece is the 14.6-inch central touchscreen display, which allows you to control every function of the car, from assisted driving systems to infotainment. The generously sized rear seats ensure exceptional comfort, while numerous storage compartments enhance everyday usability.

Electric performance and real-world range

Under the hood, the Leapmotor B10 houses a 218 horsepower electric motor and 240 Nm of torque, enough to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 8 seconds. The two battery options, 56.2 kWh and 67.1 kWh, offer a range of 361 km and 434 km respectively in the WLTP cycle, placing the B10 among the best in its class in terms of real-world efficiency. Charging? It takes just 20 minutes to go from 30 to 80% thanks to compatibility with direct current up to 168 kW.

Driving dynamics are another strong point: front-wheel drive and a 50:50 weight balance, combined with the rear multilink suspension and fine-tuning by Stellantis, ensure a stable and comfortable ride, both in the city and on long journeys. The focus on safety is demonstrated by the stated goal of achieving a 5-star E-NCAP rating, thanks in part to the high-strength steel structure and 17 standard ADAS features.

A clear strategy: high quality, affordable price

The Leapmotor B10's positioning is distinguished by clarity and transparency. The range consists of two trim levels , LIFE and DESIGN , both fully equipped with no optional extras. The LIFE trim includes 18-inch alloy wheels, a 1.8 m² panoramic sunroof, intelligent climate control, and 360-degree cameras as standard. The DESIGN trim adds ventilated and heated ECO leather seats, a power tailgate, privacy windows, and a 12-speaker Hi-Fi system.

The stated goal is to offer a truly premium alternative in the C-segment at a lower price than many internal combustion models. The starting price is €29,900, but thanks to a launch promotion, the price drops to €26,900 for the LIFE 56.2 kWh version, while the top-of-the-range DESIGN 67.1 kWh model is priced at €33,400. A clear strategy, focusing on simplicity and value, in a market increasingly sensitive to overall mobility costs.

Leapmotor and Stellantis: A Challenge Starting in Italy

The choice of Italy for the European debut of the B10 is no coincidence. Our country represents an interesting laboratory for electric mobility: a market with high growth potential, but where price remains a decisive factor. Thanks to its partnership with Stellantis, Leapmotor has access to a widespread distribution network and consolidated European industrial know-how.

The arrival of the B10 marks a turning point not only for the Leapmotor brand, but also for the entire European automotive landscape. With a technologically advanced, accessible, and well-positioned product, the Chinese company aims to disrupt the traditional balance of the C-SUV market. A bold challenge, but one consistent with the ongoing transformation: European consumers, now more than ever, are seeking concrete, reliable, and sustainable solutions. And the Leapmotor B10 promises to meet all these needs.
