While the B10 isn’t headed to the U.S. or Canada, its arrival in Mexico represents the first North American market for the rapidly growing Chinese brand. The launch also highlights Stellantis’ strategy of using its global partnerships to introduce new electrified products into key markets.

Compact Size, Long Driving Range
The Leapmotor B10 is a compact range-extending electric vehicle (REEV) SUV measuring 177.2 inches (4.5 meters) long, placing it squarely in one of today’s most competitive crossover segments.
Power comes from an electrified powertrain producing 215 horsepower, offering enough performance for everyday commuting while maintaining impressive efficiency. According to Leapmotor, the B10 delivers a combined driving range of up to 615 miles (990 kilometers), reducing the need for frequent fuel or charging stops during longer trips.
The B10 is designed to appeal to buyers looking for practical transportation with modern technology instead of high-performance credentials.

Technology Takes Center Stage
Inside, the B10 features a minimalist cabin centered around technology. Drivers are greeted by an 8.8-inch digital instrument cluster paired with a large 14.6-inch central touchscreen, which controls many of the vehicle’s primary functions.
Additional highlights include a panoramic glass roof, premium interior materials, and a suite of 17 Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS). These electronic safety systems help assist with everyday driving tasks while improving overall confidence behind the wheel.
The SUV is built on Leapmotor’s new LEAP3.5 architecture, which combines the powertrain, vehicle electronics, and intelligent software into one integrated platform. The goal is to improve efficiency, connectivity, and future software capabilities while simplifying vehicle design.

Validated Specifically For Mexican Roads
Before reaching dealerships, every Leapmotor vehicle sold in Mexico goes through an extensive validation process at the Stellantis Mexico Automotive Engineering Research, Development, and Testing Center.
Engineers evaluate each vehicle under local driving conditions that include different elevations, climates, road surfaces, and temperatures. This testing allows Stellantis to fine-tune the vehicle before customers take delivery, helping ensure long-term durability, reliability, and consistent performance.

Mopar Supports Owners After The Sale
One advantage Leapmotor gains through its partnership with Stellantis is immediate access to the company’s established service network.
Owners will receive Mopar aftersales support, including genuine replacement parts, accessories, collision repair components, and factory-trained service technicians. Stellantis says most replacement parts can be delivered to authorized dealerships within 24 to 48 hours, giving customers added confidence throughout ownership.
