Which Leapmotor cars are available?

Globally, Leapmotor have six models, but two models will be arriving on UK shores initially: the compact T03 supermini and the family-orientated C10 SUV. We expect more models to follow by the end of 2027, so watch this space!

Safety is a priority, with advanced features such as blind spot detection and lane departure warning providing peace of mind on every journey.³ Parking is effortless, thanks to a reversing camera and rear parking sensors that make even the trickiest spaces manageable. The 8-inch digital driver cluster and 10-inch touchscreen, both included as standard, deliver advanced connectivity to simplify your electric driving experience.

The Leapmotor T03 is set to go head-to-head with rivals like the MINI Electric, Dacia Spring and BYD Dolphin. In fact, it claims to be the UK’s second-cheapest electric car, just £1,000 above the Spring, but with more kit coming as standard.
