The New Leapmotor C10: Enhanced Range and Smart Luxury

Exterior Design and Color Options

The new Leapmotor C10 previously opened for blind orders. Visually, the exterior introduces a brand-new “Tianqu Layering” split-type headlight design. Additionally, the body length increases slightly by 10mm. Consequently, the vehicle dimensions measure 4749/1900/1680mm with a 2825mm wheelbase.

Buyers can choose between 18-inch low-drag wheels or 20-inch five-spoke classic wheels. Moreover, the brand introduces a brand-new, exclusive “Yunqi Gold” paint option. This joins five existing colors: Xilu Purple, Tundra Grey, Metallic Black, Tianmu Grey, and Optoelectronic White.

Interior Comfort and Technological Upgrades

Inside the cabin, Leapmotor introduces a warm Sandstone Brown interior color theme. The air conditioning vents now adopt a sleek, hidden layout. Furthermore, designers added premium metallic star-ring speaker covers, a dual-tone steering wheel, and a newly designed wireless charging pad.

For digital interfaces, the cabin packs a 60-inch AR-HUD, an 8.8-inch instrument cluster, and a 17.3-inch central screen. A high-performance Snapdragon 8295P chip runs the entire infotainment system. Notably, the front row upgrades to standard dual zero-gravity seats mated to an immersive 18-speaker audio system.

Upgraded Dual Powertrain Output

Regarding power, the vehicle satisfies different market demands with two upgraded systems:

• Extended Range (EREV): The electric motor output increases to 200kW. Consequently, the CLTC pure electric range climbs to 290km, pushing the total comprehensive range to an impressive 1300km.
• Pure Electric (BEV): The comprehensive power jumps to 230kW. Therefore, it secures a highly competitive CLTC driving range of 660km and fully supports 800V fast-charging technology.

BYD Datang EV: Flagship Large Luxury SUV

Architectural Scale and Oriental Aesthetics

The flagship BYD Datang EV previously entered pre-sales across three distinct battery and driving versions. Pre-sale prices range from 250,000 to 320,000 RMB.

The exterior styling draws heavily from classic Oriental aesthetics. Specifically, it features the “Flying Eaves Dawn” integrated through-type daytime running light strip. This massive light strip spans 2.41 meters in length and integrates 396 individual LED beads. Regarding scale, the vehicle dimensions measure 5263/1999/1790mm with a 3130mm wheelbase, firmly positioning it as a large luxury SUV.

Luxurious Cabin and Advanced Driving Intelligence

Moving inside, the dashboard showcases premium wood grain textures inspired by ancient Chinese architecture. This layout creates a highly warm yet luxurious family atmosphere. The cockpit introduces a brand-new steering wheel paired with a high-tech triple-screen layout. This setup includes a digital instrument cluster, a floating central screen, a passenger entertainment screen, and a helpful HUD system.

In terms of safety, the Datang EV carries the God’s Eye 5.0 driving assistance system. Therefore, the hardware easily supports complex autonomous maneuvers, including all-scenario detours and all-scenario U-turns.

DiSus-A Digital Chassis and Dual Powertrains

Chassis tech is a major highlight. The SUV includes the DiSus-A intelligent air suspension system with dual-chamber air springs. Consequently, it supports 100mm of active height adjustment and two-level stiffness regulation to optimize ride comfort. Additionally, standard rear-wheel steering provides a maximum steering angle of ±7°. As a result, this massive vehicle achieves an ultra-tight turning radius of just 5.2 meters.

The Datang EV utilizes BYD’s revolutionary second-generation Blade Battery and flash-charging hardware. Buyers can select three CLTC driving ranges: 800km (RWD), 950km (RWD), and 850km (AWD). The high-performance AWD model rockets from 0 to 100km/h in a blistering 3.39 seconds.

Alternatively, hybrid versions offer extreme efficiency. The DM-i variant pairs a 300kW single electric motor with a 115kW 1.5T hybrid engine. Conversely, the heavy-duty DM-p variant utilizes dual 200kW front and rear motors to produce a combined 400kW, achieving a 0-100km/h sprint in just 4.3 seconds.

The New Shangjie H5: High-Tech Comfort Champion

Zero-Gravity Relaxation Experience

The updated Shangjie H5 previously opened its pre-sale phase with a starting price of 169,800 RMB. The cabin prioritizes maximum physical relaxation. Specifically, both front seats receive advanced 8-point massage systems. The driver seat offers 12-way power adjustment, while the front passenger seat provides 14-way power adjustment.

Furthermore, the passenger side supports voice-activated or physical button-controlled extension and retraction. This design delivers a true “near zero-gravity” physical experience. Rear passengers also gain 3-level ventilation, heating, and convenient one-touch button adjustments.

Microfiber Luxury and HarmonyOS Integration

Material-wise, the entire cabin upgrades to a premium microfiber suede headliner for a soft, skin-friendly tactile feel. The seats feature optimized stitching lines to cultivate a highly refined texture. Additionally, drivers receive a brand-new W-HUD system supporting blind-spot turning assist imagery.

The center console adds a massive 15.6-inch adaptive display that adjusts in four directions via voice or screen inputs. Ambient lighting also sees an upgrade, packing standard 10-zone 256-color ambient light paths.

Most importantly, the entire Shangjie H5 lineup comes standard with the HarmonyOS Smart Cockpit. High-trim levels carry advanced LiDAR sensors and the premium HUAWEI ADS 4 system. The vehicle utilizes the HUAWEI XMOTION digital chassis platform. For power, buyers can choose between an extended-range version with a 1360km total range, or a pure electric version securing a maximum range of 655km.
