Leapmotor Market Performance:
• June deliveries: 48,006 units (+138% YoY)
• 2025 YTD total: 221,664 units (44.3% of 500K annual target)
• Currently leads China’s NEV startup sales for 4 consecutive months
• Leapmotor C16 6-seater SUV owns 70% segment share in the sub-$20K market


Editor’s Note:
This dark horse’s sales now rival Spain’s entire private car market—an astonishing growth story. With the B01 attacking the mass market and Stellantis handling global exports, Leapmotor’s 500,000-unit annual target appears achievable. Their “tech democratization” strategy is reshaping China’s auto landscape.
