TheLeapmotor C16 (Chinese:零跑C16;pinyin:Língpǎo C16) is afull-sizecrossover SUV produced by Chinese automobile manufacturerLeapmotor.
In April 2024, during the international auto show inBeijing, the premiere of the third, largest SUV in the Leapmotor offer took place, which is a response to, among others, the products of the companyLi Auto.[1] The C16 was created as an enlarged version of theC10 model presented a year ago, sharing the characteristic angular proportions and styling of the front part of the body. To distinguish it, the C16 received a longer wheelbase, a longer body and a more shapely shaped rear part of the body.[2]
The passenger compartment has been designed in a minimalist aesthetic with dominant light-colored finishing materials, led by a 14.6-inch touchscreen multimedia system in the center of the dashboard. In addition, a display with digital clocks is located in front of the driver, while a drop-down 15.6-inch screen is provided for the rear passengers. The manufacturer also used a 21-speaker audio system, while the angular passenger cabin allowed for the transport of up to 6 passengers in a 2+2+2 seating arrangement.
Like other models in the Leapmotor range, the C16 was created with two types of drive in mind: electric and hybrid. The first specification was created by a 288 hp engine allowing for a maximum speed of up to 160 km/h, with a 67 kWh battery offering up to 520 kilometers of range according to the Chinese CLTC measurement procedure. The hybrid variant was powered by a 1.5-liter petrol engine with 94 hp and an electric unit with 228 hp, offering up to 230 kilometers of range in fully electric mode.[3]
