Founded in 2015 and headquartered in Zhejiang province, Leapmotor's models on sale include the mini EV T03, coupe model S01, flagship SUV C11, and flagship sedan C01.
The company's sales were previously contributed mainly by the cheap EV T03, but it is getting the more expensive C-series models to contribute more sales so far this year by launching extended-range electric vehicle (EREV) models.
Leapmotor's founder, Zhu Jiangming, said after announcing the company's third-quarter results on November 14, 2022, that all of the company's models on the C platform, as well as new platforms in the future, will have both BEV and EREV versions.
The company's deliveries plummeted in the first quarter of the year and fell to just 1,139 units in January. However, with the launch of the EREV variant of the C11 on March 1, its monthly deliveries have risen sharply over the past few months.
On September 20, Leapmotor launched an EREV variant for its flagship sedan, the C01, available in three versions with starting prices of RMB 145,800 ($19,970), RMB 158,800, and RMB 169,800 respectively.
The C01 EREV is powered by battery packs with a capacity of up to 43.7 kWh, providing a CLTC battery range of up to 316 kilometers. At full fuel and full charge, the model has a combined CLTC range of up to 1,276 kilometers.
