Leapmotor used the stage of IAA Mobility 2025 in Munich to demonstrate its ambitions in global markets, unveiling the all-new B05 compact hatchback and officially launching the B10 electric SUV for Europe.
The Chinese EV maker showcased vehicles across three locations — exhibition halls, the Open Space, and the downtown Test Drive Area — signalling its intent to become a mainstream player in Europe.
B05: Designed for Urban Drivers
The B05 sport C-hatch was revealed as a statement model for young, urban trendsetters. With frameless doors, 19-inch “Swift-Wing” alloy wheels, and a broad stance, the hatchback blends a futuristic look with everyday practicality.
Measuring 4,430 mm long with a 2,735 mm wheelbase, the B05 is built for agility while offering a spacious cabin. Global CEO Zhu Jiangming called it “more than a car—it’s a statement. It reflects our commitment to innovation, accessibility, and empowering the next generation of drivers across Europe and beyond.”
For fleet buyers, the B05 represents Leapmotor’s attempt to capture a slice of the competitive compact EV market, combining affordability with design appeal.
B10: SUV Launch for Europe
The B10 compact SUV was the focus of Leapmotor’s European sales launch. Built on the LEAP3.5 architecture, the B10 brings long-range capability, rapid charging, and a starting price of €29,900 — positioning it as one of the most affordable EV SUVs in its class.
Deliveries have already commenced, backed by Stellantis’ established dealer and distribution network, ensuring scale across Europe. The B10 will be offered in more than 30 markets spanning Europe, the Middle East, Africa, Asia-Pacific, and South America.
