Meet The Leapmotor A10 - The Brand’s Next EV Headed For Europe

Leapmotor clearly woke up this year and said, “You know what? Let’s go for everything.” After rolling out sedans, big SUVs, and basically filling every niche it could find, the brand is now diving straight into the small SUV battlefield with a new model called the A10. Honestly, this segment is chaos. Every carmaker wants in. Everyone’s fighting for the same customers. It’s like Black Friday, but for crossovers.

The A10 will sit just under the bigger B10, and it’ll eventually get a little hatchback buddy named the A05. Leapmotor just dropped the first official pics ahead of the car’s big reveal at the Guangzhou Auto Show on November 21.

It’s pictured in Seaweed Green and Acorn Brown, sitting on clean five-spoke wheels, and while the company hasn’t released dimensions yet, the A10 should be around 4.2 to 4.3 meters long. That lands it right in small-SUV territory with all the other compact little troublemakers.

What really stands out, though, is the tech. The A10 is rocking a roof-mounted lidar pod and a bunch of sensors down the sides. Translation: Leapmotor is not messing around with driver-assistance features. If there’s a high-tech box to tick, this thing is ticking it.

Inside, expect the brand’s usual minimalist vibe. Big screen in the middle, clean dashboard, enough room for five adults if they’re friendly. Leapmotor keeps describing the A10 as a “smart, premium, long-range SUV,” which is EV-speak for “we’re trying to look fancy without terrifying your wallet.”

We still don’t have the full spec sheet, but the A10 is almost guaranteed to use a single electric motor with a range that won’t embarrass itself next to rivals.

Both the A10 and the smaller A05 are coming to Europe in 2026, joining the T03, B05, B10, and C10 already there. In China, Leapmotor’s lineup is way bigger. They’ve got sedans like the B01 and C01 and SUVs like the C11, C16, and D19. It’s basically Pokémon at this point: there’s one in every size.

In its home market, the A10 will be fighting the BYD Yuan Up, which starts at a very spicy ¥96,800. In Europe, competition is even more intense. It’s walking into a room full of heavy hitters like the Citroen e-C3 Aircross, Opel Frontera Electric, Renault 4 E-Tech, Kia EV3, Peugeot E-2008, Fiat 600e, Jeep Avenger, and Alfa Romeo Junior, among others.

Leapmotor is coming in hot. From January to September 2025, it delivered almost 400,000 cars worldwide, which is a 129 percent jump. The company also passed the one-million sales milestone and then flexed again with a record October of more than 70,000 units sold.

So the A10 isn’t just “another small SUV.” It’s Leapmotor rolling up to one of the most crowded EV segments with confidence, a solid sales streak behind it, and the energy of someone saying, “Move, I’m doing this.”
