Leapmotor C10 AWD lands in New Zealand with 440kW and 437km of range 

Leapmotor has launched the all-wheel drive version of its electric C10 SUV in New Zealand, starting from $64,990.

This C10 AWD joins the current local Leapmotor line-up, consisting of the single motor C10 a and the smaller B10 SUV. 

Headlining the new model is a dual-motor set-up, which produces a hefty 440kW and 720Nm of torque. This is enough to send it to 100km/h from a standing start in four seconds. 

It’s powered by a 81.9 kWh LFP battery, and has a driving range of up to 437km (WLTP).

This battery can be charged from 30 per cent to 80 per cent in 22 minutes, with a peak rate of 180kW thanks to the 800V hardware. 

The C10 benefits from over-the-air updates to its systems, and drivers also get the ability to share their keys digitally.

On the inside, standard equipment includes a 14.6-inch 2K infotainment screen, and a 10.25-inch digital cluster. 

A 12-speaker, 840W sound system, panoramic sunroof, and up to 1,410 litres of luggage space is also included, 

The Leapmotor C10AWD is available now, and can be purchased at Armstrong’s dealership locations in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch.
