Chinese car brands are arriving thick and fast, but could this one be the best yet?In our latest EV review, Nicola gets behind the wheel of the new Leapmotor B10, a cut-price family SUV that could be about to shake up the market. Built under Stellantis partnership, the B10 promises big-car comfort, smart design and impressive value, all wrapped up in a package that looks ready to take on established European rivals.
With generous range, decent fast-charging capability and a focus on interior tech, the Leapmotor B10 could be one of the most convincing new models from the wave of Chinese electric cars heading to the UK. But is it as good to drive as it looks?
Nicola finds out how it performs on real roads, what it’s like inside, and whether this is the Chinese EV that finally cracks the mainstream. Is the Leapmotor B10 the most complete new Chinese EV we've seen so far, or just another pretender to the throne?
