Celebrating One Year of Leapmotor in the UK

Leapmotor is celebrating its first full year in the UK, marking an impressive start for one of the fastest-growing new electric vehicle brands.

Since launching in early 2025, the brand has registered over 7,300 vehicles, outperforming the first-year registrations of several other new market entrants and quickly establishing itself as a strong contender in the UK EV market.

Record Growth and Strong Retail Demand

March 2026 became Leapmotor’s strongest month to date, with 1,891 vehicle registrations and a 2.2% share of the UK electric car market. The Leapmotor B10 has proven especially popular with private buyers, becoming one of the best-selling electric family SUVs in its class. With more than 60% of UK sales going to retail customers, Leapmotor’s “value without compromise” approach is clearly resonating with drivers looking for affordable, high-quality electric mobility.

An Expanding Electric Future

Leapmotor’s UK range continues to grow, now offering a fully electrified line-up including the T03 city car, the versatile B10 SUV, and the spacious C10 family SUV, alongside new hybrid EV options. With additional models such as the B05 and B03X arriving during 2026, Leapmotor is continuing to strengthen its presence and make electric driving more accessible across the UK.
