The battery uses a 28.4 kWh lithium iron phosphate battery pack, which supports fast charging, temperature management system and VTOL mobile power station functions. Under CLTC conditions, the pure electric range of this Leapmotor C16 extended-range model is 200 km, and the comprehensive range can reach 1095 km, which to a certain extent solves the range anxiety problem of new energy vehicles.
As a medium-to-large SUV, the Leapmotor C16 has a vehicle size of 4915/1905/1770mm and a wheelbase of 2825mm. The spacious interior space also allows this SUV to adopt a large 2+2+2 6-seat layout, so it can meet the travel needs of more people. In the actual riding experience, a passenger with a height of 175cm sitting in the second row has more than 2 fists of leg space, and will not feel crowded even if he enters the third row. In addition, the rear seats can be folded flat, which, combined with the spacious trunk space, can unlock more car usage scenarios.

In terms of appearance, Leapmotor C16 adopts the latest design language of the family, so it is still very recognizable. The front face adopts a closed grille design, and the sea level through-type headlight group is also one of the iconic symbols of Leapmotor. It also supports a variety of lighting effects to enhance the playability of the vehicle. The large horizontal air intake grille at the bottom also plays a role in heat dissipation and makes the front of the car more stable and majestic.
On the side, the large side windows and the waistline that runs through the rear make the Leapmotor C16 look slimmer and wider. The hidden door handles and large sports wheels that young people love also enhance the sportiness of the vehicle. The rear of the Leapmotor C16 also uses the same sea-level through-type taillights as the headlights, which are very attractive when lit.
