Leapmotor Advances European Localization: B10 Pre-Production in Spain, B03X Launched in Italy at €19,900

In September 2026, Leapmotor began pre-production of the B10 compact battery-electric SUV at Stellantis's Zaragoza plant in Spain, using local content to avoid EU tariffs; at the same time, it launched the B03X small electric SUV in Italy at 19,900 euros to enter Europe's entry-level market. European BEV registrations in August reached 202,833 units, up 54.2% year on year, with a 30.5% market share. Chinese automakers' European localization paths are diverging: BYD tends to build multiple bases itself, while Leapmotor leverages Stellantis's production capacity.
