LEAPMOTOR

Product Description

The Leapmotor C16 is a full-size crossover SUV produced by Chinese automobile manufacturer Leapmotor.

In April 2024, during the international auto show in Beijing, the premiere of the third, largest SUV in the Leapmotor offer took place, which is a response to, among others, the products of the company Li Auto.[1] The C16 was created as an enlarged version of the C10 model presented a year ago, sharing the characteristic angular proportions and styling of the front part of the body. To distinguish it, the C16 received a longer wheelbase, a longer body and a more shapely shaped rear part of the body.

The passenger compartment has been designed in a minimalist aesthetic with dominant light-colored finishing materials, led by a 14.6-inch touchscreen multimedia system in the center of the dashboard. In addition, a display with digital clocks is located in front of the driver, while a drop-down 15.6-inch screen is provided for the rear passengers. The manufacturer also used a 21-speaker audio system, while the angular passenger cabin allowed for the transport of up to 6 passengers in a 2+2+2 seating arrangement.

Like other models in the Leapmotor range, the C16 was created with two types of drives in mind: Battery Electric (BEV) and Extended Range Electric (EREV). The C16 was initially launched as a BEV with 288 hp motor allowing for a maximum speed of up to 160 km/h, and a 67 kWh battery with up to 520 kilometers of range on the Chinese CLTC test cycle. The EREV variant has the same battery and 228 hp motor with an added 1.5-liter petrol engine. This extends the range by up to 230 kilometers. As with all EREV vehicles the petrol engine exclusively generates electricity which in turn drives the electric powertrain.
