Leapmotor: „Wir setzen nicht einfach Teile zusammen, die aus China kommen“
Der chinesische Autobauer fertigt über ein Joint Venture Fahrzeuge beim Partner Stellantis. Leapmotor-International-Chef Danilo Annese erklärt, wie es mit „Made in Europe“ weitergehen soll.
Leapmotor, a Chinese automobile manufacturer, has initiated its first European production in Spain. The company's CEO, Danilo Annese, expressed optimism about Europe's potential, stating that it is the most crucial region outside China for Leapmotor's future. The first units of the popular Leapmotor B10 compact SUV rolled off the production line in Stellantis's Spanish factory in Zaragoza in mid-October.
Recently, the manufacturer announced plans to manufacture the compact B05 model starting in the first quarter of 2027 at the same plant. Leapmotor International, a joint venture between Stellantis (51%) and Leapmotor (49%), aims to help Stellantis optimize its factory capacities and gain access to Leapmotor's technologies. In return, Chinese manufacturers benefit from Stellantis's extensive dealer and distribution networks in Europe.
Annese praised the rapid success Leapmotor has achieved in Europe, attributing it to the strong performance of countries like Germany. The Chinese automaker has emerged as the fastest-growing brand on the European automotive market.
