Leapmotor Sets New Record: 71,387 Deliveries in April 2026, Up 73.9% YoY

As the global strategic partnership between Stellantis and Leapmotor continues to strengthen, the brand's impressive performance is once again drawing attention in the Malaysian automotive market.

According to the latest figures, Leapmotor delivered a record 71,387 vehicles in April 2026, marking a strong 73.9% year-on-year increase.

Model Breakdown: Multi-Segment Success

The sales surge was driven by several key models:

Leapmotor A10: The brand's latest entry-level model has shown exceptional demand. Since its launch in late March, firm orders have exceeded 40,000 units in just one month. Daily production has now surpassed 1,000 units, with deliveries expected to reach 26,000 units in May.

Leapmotor D19: The flagship intelligent sedan, priced from RMB 219,800 (approx. RM143,000), achieved over 15,000 bookings within 15 days of launch. It features dual Qualcomm 8797 chips and advanced autonomous driving capabilities.

Lafa 5 Ultra: Freshly debuted at Auto China 2026, this sporty model is priced at RMB 118,800 (approx. RM77,000), targeting younger buyers.

Intelligence Progress: City NAP Goes Mainstream

Beyond sales, Leapmotor is rapidly advancing its technology. Starting in April, the brand began rolling out City Navigation Assist Pilot (City NAP) across its entire lineup, with full implementation expected by May. This marks a significant step toward making advanced intelligent driving accessible to the mass market.

Malaysian Market Outlook: Beyond the C10

Leapmotor officially entered Malaysia through Stellantis Malaysia with the C10. As production capacity increases and the product portfolio matures in China, Malaysian consumers can look forward to more competitive models such as the A10 arriving in the future.

With confirmed plans for local CKD assembly, Leapmotor's strong global sales momentum reflects a robust supply chain and continued investment in R&D. For Malaysian buyers considering an EV, the brand's rapid rise offers growing confidence in its long-term credibility and support.
