Leapmotor B10 offers hybrid efficiency in good all-round package
B10 joins C10 Hybrid EV in growing the company's new energy vehicle portfolio.
Leapmotor has introduced the B10 REEV, a hybrid electric vehicle designed to offer efficiency and an extensive range. The REEV stands for Range Extended Electric Vehicle, a term that may not be familiar to many. The vehicle is powered by a 158kW electric motor and an 18.8kWh battery, resulting in a range of 86km when charged at a standard outlet.
However, thanks to the integrated petrol engine, the Leapmotor B10 can achieve an impressive overall range of 900km, significantly reducing concerns about range anxiety. This is achieved by the petrol engine solely charging the battery, and never powering the wheels. Inside, the B10 boasts a high-tech, modern interface with a 14-inch touch screen, connected to a comprehensive digital ecosystem through the Leapmotor App.
This allows users to manage various aspects of the vehicle, such as remote locking, air conditioning, battery level, driving statistics, and even software updates. The Leapmotor B10's pricing starts at R499,900 for the Hybrid EV Style and R549,900 for the Design model, both backed by a five-year/100,000km warranty and service plan.
