2025 Leapmotor C10 REEV review
- The Leapmotor C10 REEV is an extended-range electric vehicle that operates primarily as an EV with a rear-mounted electric motor and a petrol engine for recharging.
- Priced at $45,900 drive-away, it competes with hybrid and electric SUVs and offers a $5000 saving over the pure EV C10.
- The interior of the C10 REEV features a unique 'Camel Brown' color scheme with premium materials, leatherette steering wheel, and power-adjustable faux-leather seats.
- The infotainment system is Android-based with no smartphone mirroring but includes features like Spotify, navigation, and an onboard user manual.
- The C10 REEV is powered by a 158kW electric motor coupled with a 1.5L petrol engine acting as a range extender, offering up to 1150km combined driving range.
- Driving the C10 REEV presents challenges like inconsistent performance, spongy pedals, and varying refinement levels, impacting acceleration and overall efficiency.
- Safety features include adaptive cruise control, autonomous emergency braking, and a five-star ANCAP safety rating, along with three years of connected services access.
- The C10 REEV offers a tech-focused driving experience similar to Tesla, with a minimalist cabin design, semi-autonomous driving features, and practical interior packaging.
- In comparison to the C10 EV, the REEV variant offers more flexibility for longer trips but is less efficient and may feel disjointed on the road, making it a compromise for some buyers.
- The Leapmotor C10 is covered by a six-year warranty, with service intervals of 12 months or 20,000km, and an average annual service cost of $400.
