Summary

The Leapmotor B05 56.2 kWh is a 5-seat hatchback with rear-wheel drive, not sold in the UK, but on sale from €27,900 in Germany and €25,995 in the Netherlands. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 7.5 seconds, slower than 64% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 199 miles (320 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That is longer than 21% of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK, and 32nd of 67 hatchbacks.

It uses around 3.6 mi/kWh (172 Wh/km), more efficient than the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 55 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 105 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 232 miles (374 km) at motorway speeds.

It has a heat pump, which helps preserve range in cold weather, and it supports vehicle-to-load (V2L), so it can power appliances from its battery. The battery uses LFP chemistry, which manufacturers generally allow to be charged to 100% routinely.
