The Chinese EV maker, Leapmotor, in partnership with Stellantis, is planning to enter the Indian market.

Speculations suggest that the Leapmotor T03 electric hatchback and the C10 electric SUVs could be prepared for Indian customers.

The India-based manufacturing facility will be used to produce and sell the Leapmotor electric vehicles to avoid high import duties.

Furthermore, Leapmotor International will be focused on volume-centric segments. It will have 6 models in the portfolio by 2027. “The ultimate goal is the zero-emission vehicles. The JV will help in offering affordable vehicles,” Tavares said.
