Leapmotor is proud to introduce the C10 Range-Extended Electric Vehicle (REEV), a next-generation SUV that redefines how electric vehicles perform by delivering a pure electric experience while eliminating range anxiety. This groundbreaking SUV combines advanced electric drive technology with an ingenious range-extending system, giving you the smoothness of an electric vehicle and the confidence to travel long distances.
Built for the electric era, ready for the open road
At the heart of the Leapmotor C10 REEV is a simple yet revolutionary idea: electric first, always ready. With a total driving range of up to 970 km, this mid-size SUV gives drivers the freedom to travel as far as they want without worrying about where the next charger is.
When the battery runs low, the compact 1.5 litre petrol engine automatically activates to generate electricity that recharges the battery. The small fuel tank can be refilled in minutes, allowing journeys to continue for hundreds of kilometres, so you can enjoy the confidence of a petrol car combined with the efficiency and refinement of an electric car.
A full electric driving experience
Unlike conventional plug-in hybrids, the Leapmotor C10 REEV is powered exclusively by an electric motor. The wheels are never driven by the engine, ensuring every kilometre feels smooth, silent and powerful like a genuine EV.
The rear-mounted 158 kW motor delivers 320 Nm of torque instantly, for effortless acceleration. The 28.4 kWh lithium-ion battery, integrated into the chassis via Cell-to-Chassis (CTC) technology, provides up to 145 km of pure electric range which is enough to ensure most daily trips remain emissions-free.
When the range extender kicks in, the engine runs at a steady, efficient RPM, generating electricity with maximum fuel economy.
The perfect balance of performance and cost
The Leapmotor C10 REEV embodies an optimal balance between performance, efficiency, and value. Its innovative setup means it doesn’t need a large, expensive battery.
By combining a smaller, lighter battery with a backup generator, Leapmotor has created a vehicle that’s both cost-efficient and environmentally responsible. Daily commutes use affordable electric power, while long-distance travel draws on the generator when necessary. It's the best of both worlds for South African drivers.
Smart charging meets premium comfort
Charging the Leapmotor C10 REEV is fast and convenient: a full AC charge takes about 5 hours, while DC fast charging up to 65 kW replenishes the battery from 20% to 80% in roughly 30 minutes.
Inside, the C10 REEV is a celebration of technology and refinement. Its minimalist interior features a 14.6-inch high-definition central touchscreen and a 10.25-inch digital driver display.
In addition to the dual-zone climate control, heated and ventilated seats, 12-speaker surround-sound system, the car also has a panoramic roof to give you a driving experience that feels as smart as it looks.
Safety without compromise
The Leapmotor C10 REEV has been awarded a 5-Star Euro NCAP (European New Car Assessment Programme) Safety Rating and comes equipped with a Level 2 driver assistance system. The system combines 12 high-precision sensors with 17 advanced safety features, including Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Centring Control, Autonomous Emergency Braking, and Blind Spot Detection, ensuring safer and more confident journeys.
Electric, Extended, Extraordinary
The Leapmotor C10 REEV marks a quantum leap forward for electric driving in South Africa, combining pure electric performance with petrol-powered flexibility. It redefines what’s possible in sustainable mobility and offers drivers the perfect blend of performance, freedom, and peace of mind all wrapped in a premium, family-ready SUV.
