Leapmotor plans to introduce the T03 as its entry-level model when it officially enters the Indian market via Leapmotor International, the Stellantis-backed joint venture. The launch is expected sometime in 2026, possibly around mid-year depending on approvals and localization strategy. Internationally, the T03 has already found success in China and parts of Europe as a value-focused electric hatchback that delivers modern features at an accessible price. For India, it is likely to arrive as a fully imported model initially, aimed at first-time EV buyers and urban users looking to downsize from larger cars. With a length of just over 3.6 metres and a tight turning radius, it is tailored for crowded city roads and limited parking spaces. Despite its small footprint, it promises a well-equipped cabin, decent range for daily use, and low ownership costs, positioning it as a practical gateway into electric mobility.

engine and performance

The Leapmotor C10 is a fully electric SUV powered by a rear-mounted single motor producing roughly 215 to 231 hp and 320 Nm of torque, depending on market specification. It uses a 69.9 kWh LFP battery known for durability and safety, delivering a claimed range of up to 530 km on the CLTC cycle. In real-world Indian driving conditions, range is expected to be around 400 to 450 km. Performance is brisk, with a 0 to 100 kmph sprint in about 7.5 seconds and a top speed near 170 kmph. The C10 supports fast DC charging, allowing a 30 to 80 percent charge in roughly 30 minutes, along with efficient AC home charging. Advanced cell-to-body construction improves rigidity and efficiency, keeping the driving experience smooth, quiet, and responsive.

 

interior

Inside, the Leapmotor C10 offers a spacious and minimalist cabin focused on comfort and technology for five occupants. The dashboard is dominated by a large 14.6-inch touchscreen infotainment system paired with a 10.25-inch digital driver display, both powered by a fast Qualcomm Snapdragon processor for smooth performance. The layout is clean and user-friendly, with physical controls for climate functions, wireless charging, multiple USB ports, and ambient lighting adding to the premium feel. Seats are expected to be supportive with leatherette upholstery and good adjustability, while the flat floor and long wheelbase ensure generous rear-seat legroom and headroom. Boot space is practical at around 435 litres and can be expanded by folding the rear seats. Overall, the interior emphasizes quiet comfort, modern connectivity, and family-friendly usability typical of a well-engineered electric SUV.

 

exterior

The Leapmotor C10 features a clean, modern EV design with smooth surfaces and an aerodynamic silhouette that gives it a premium, futuristic presence without being overly aggressive. It gets flush door handles, a closed-off front fascia with an illuminated Leapmotor badge, and sharp LED headlamps with distinctive daytime running lights. The side profile highlights its long 2825 mm wheelbase, subtle character lines, and roof rails for added practicality. At the rear, connected LED taillamps and a subtle spoiler enhance the contemporary look. Measuring roughly 4739 mm in length, 1900 mm in width, and 1680 mm in height, it offers a solid road presence, while ground clearance of around 180 mm suits Indian urban conditions. Alloy wheels up to 18 or 19 inches and multiple colour options round off the understated yet confident exterior design. 

competition

In India, the Leapmotor C10 will compete in the mid-size electric SUV segment against models like the BYD Atto 3, which is known for its blade battery safety and strong real-world range. The Hyundai Creta Electric offers brand familiarity and a wide service network, while the Tata Curvv EV focuses on aggressive styling and local manufacturing advantages. Mahindra’s upcoming XUV.e8 and BE series bring bold design and advanced features aimed at Indian buyers, and the MG ZS EV continues to appeal with a comfortable cabin and strong connectivity. While rivals vary in pricing, battery technology, and after-sales reach, the Leapmotor C10 stands out with its global-spec design, spacious interior, and modern technology in an imported electric SUV package.
