2026 Leapmotor C16 Extended Range SUV

 

The 2026 Leapmotor C16 was officially launched on June 18, offering 8 configurations in 5- and 6-seater versions. Leapmotor C16 price starts at ¥151,800 (approximately $20,931 USD). As a facelifted model, the C16 brings over 70 upgrades in comfort, range, intelligence, and design. This release focuses on the Leapmotor C16 Extended Range version, which is equipped with a 38.7 kWh battery pack, offering 280km of pure electric range and a CLTC combined range of 1,150km.

 

Continuation of Family Design, Now with a More Commanding Presence


The 2026 Leapmotor C16 exterior continues the family design seen on the current model, with through-type headlights, a closed grille, and a robust lower bumper-visually consistent with the Leapmotor C10, but with a stronger and more assertive presence. The C16 dimensions measure 4915/1905/1770mm (L/W/H), with a 2825mm wheelbase and 21-inch wheels. At the rear, the family-style through-type taillights provide high recognition. The Extended Range version features a hidden exhaust design, visually indistinguishable from the pure electric version, emphasizing its new energy identity.

Strengthened Competitiveness Among Mid-to-Large NEV SUVs


At launch, the Leapmotor C16 attracted attention for its practical features and excellent value. With the addition of a 5-seater model in this update, it caters to more diverse household needs by offering enhanced rear space. At the same time, it retains strengths like 800V fast-charging architecture and LiDAR configuration. Competing with rivals like the BYD Tang and Dongfeng eπ008, the Leapmotor C16 is poised to maintain a strong foothold in the mid-to-large new energy SUV market.
