Leapmotor B10 Ultra-Híbrido to Debut at Festival Interlagos 2026 in Brazil

en.Wedoany.com Reported - Leapmotor will debut the B10 Ultra-Híbrido in Brazil for the first time at the Festival Interlagos 2026. The event is scheduled to take place from August 27 to 30 at the Autódromo José Carlos Pace (Interlagos) in São Paulo, located at Rua Senador Teotônio Vilela, 261 – São Paulo (SP).

Leapmotor, a partner brand of Stellantis N.V., previously introduced its range-extended electric vehicle (REEV) technology to the Brazilian SUV market through the C10 Ultra-Híbrido. This technology combines the pure electric driving experience with fuel-based recharging to eliminate range anxiety. In the REEV system, the internal combustion engine operates solely as a generator, functioning to charge the battery, while the vehicle is always driven by the electric motor. This delivers instantaneous torque 100% of the driving time, with no hesitation or switching as found in traditional hybrids, and no concern about the battery running out. Users can choose to charge or refuel, and long-distance travel is not limited by range.

As Leapmotor's next major model in Brazil, the B10 Ultra-Híbrido continues the core features that have already proven successful in the B10 Elétrico, including a 14.6-inch central touchscreen (with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay), a spacious cabin accommodating five adults, seats upholstered in OEKO-TEX® certified hypoallergenic premium fabric, as well as seven airbags, the highest Euro NCAP rating, and the Leap Pilot Level 2+ semi-autonomous driving system. Exclusive configurations tailored for the Brazilian market will be announced at the Festival Interlagos.

This working approach directly enhances customer perception and comfort. The vehicle in the customer's hands consistently performs dynamically like a pure electric vehicle. In addition to the B10 Ultra-Híbrido, Leapmotor will also showcase the B10 Elétrico, C10 Elétrico, C10 Ultra-Híbrido, and new products reflecting the brand's future vision at the Festival Interlagos. Further details on participation and launches will be announced at a later date.
