    Australia's cheapest electric SUV tested! (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Leapmotor hasn't had the greatest start in Australia, with its first model, the C10, receiving a lukewarm response at best. Since then, each new model has represented a big leap, if you will, over that car. The B10 small SUV has been well received and the B05 hatch that's coming soon promises to be more of a driver's car. Later this year Leapmotor will introduce a smaller all-electric SUV, the B03X, that should further improve the brand's fortunes. It's already a hit in its native China where it

The C10 was Leapmotor's first model to go global beyond China but it has struggled to gain traction in Australia in the face of intense competition. A key Leapmotor executive said an update was coming early next year. "Of course, there might be an evolution of C10 coming in the beginning of next year.

    Chinese brand Leapmotor will soon have bragging rights with confirmation that its new small SUV will be the cheapest electric SUV available in Australia.

The Chinese brand has been open about the possibility of a ute model in the past but it sounds like those conversations are getting more serious. Speaking at the global launch of the B03X compact EV, Leapmotor International Head of Product and Marketing Francesco Giacalone highlighted the importance of the Australian market in Leapmotor's global strategy before hinting at a possibl

    New seven-seat hybrid SUV misses the mark (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Proving the current popularity of plug-in hybrids (PHEV), one of Chery Group's many brands, Omoda Jaecoo, is giving buyers another option. Following the launch of the petrol-powered J8 large SUV a year ago, Jaecoo has added the J8 SHS (Super Hybrid System). It's a plug-in hybrid and, unlike the petrol J8, this one has seven seats.
