Vehicle model
Leapmotor Gamme Leapmotor - électrique/hybride
Leapmotor stands out for its dual electrification approach. On one hand, fully battery-electric models (BEV) such as the T03, B10, or C10 EV. On the other, range-extender versions called EREV (or REEV): a small combustion engine serves only as a generator to recharge the battery and does not directly drive the wheels, with the vehicle remaining electrically propelled. This solution, popularized by the C10 EREV, offers very high combined range and eliminates range anxiety, a relevant advantage for long distances and Quebec's cold climate where electric range drops. It appeals to buyers attracted to electric driving but hesitant to depend solely on charging. Tire/wheel/winter note: tire fitments are identical to the equivalent electric versions; in Quebec, plan for a dedicated winter set.

Technology
Technologies, engines and platforms
Battery BEV (often LFP) or EREV/REEV where a combustion generator engine recharges the battery without driving the wheels. Dedicated electric platforms, DC fast charging, and thermal management to limit range loss in cold weather.
Tires and wheels
Tire and wheel compatibility
La gamme Leapmotor couvre des formats variés selon le segment. La citadine T03 chausse de petites roues (environ 14 à 15 pouces, pneus type 165/65 R15 ou 165/70 R14), tandis que le VUS compact-intermédiaire C10 utilise des jantes de 18 à 20 pouces (par exemple 235/55 R18 ou 245/45 R20). Les VUS B10/C11 se situent généralement entre 18 et 20 pouces. Au Québec, les pneus d'hiver sont obligatoires du 1er décembre au 15 mars : prévoir un jeu hiver, idéalement avec jantes en acier de plus petit diamètre quand c'est compatible, pour préserver les jantes d'origine. Confirmez toujours l'entraxe (bolt pattern) et l'alésage exacts du véhicule avant l'achat.
