Electric Excellence and Safety: The Leapmotor B10 Shines in European Crash Tests

The fully electric Leapmotor B10 SUV demonstrates a commitment to maximum safety, achieving an outstanding rating in the rigorous Euro NCAP tests.

The Leapmotor B10 offers outstanding performance in adult occupant protection. In fact, it reached a remarkable 93 percent in the Euro NCAP assessments. The vehicle’s passenger compartment remained stable in frontal offset impacts. Furthermore, the structural integrity was excellent during testing.

On the other hand, protection for the femurs and knees of both front occupants was rated as excellent. The vehicle ensures similar safety for passengers of various statures or positions. The protection level for the driver was high in the full-width rigid barrier tests.

Maximum Scores in Key Impacts

The B10 achieved the maximum score in the lateral impact barrier test. Likewise, the pole impact test also received the maximum score. This reflects a solid defense against side collisions. Consequently, the model achieved 37.3 points out of 40 for adult protection.

Superior Protection for Child Occupants

The model also achieved 93 percent in child occupant protection. Therefore, it obtained 46 out of 49 possible points. In this regard, the B10 achieved high scores in tests with dummies equivalent to 6 and 10-year-old children. This includes both side and frontal impacts.

The passenger airbag can be deactivated for installing rear-facing child seats. Additionally, the model includes clear warnings to the driver about the deactivation status. The B10 allows for the correct installation of all homologated child restraint systems.

Driving Assistance and Vulnerable Users

The SUV achieved 84 percent in the evaluation dedicated to vulnerable road users. Specifically, the Leapmotor B10 utilizes advanced Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB) systems. These systems are prepared to react to motorcyclists, cyclists, and pedestrians. The function prevents collisions with cyclists when opening a door.

The model achieved 85 percent in assistance technologies. Among the highlighted systems, there is intelligent speed assistance and emergency lane-keeping assistance. Finally, the performance of the AEB system against other vehicles was very good. This positions the B10 as a modern and safe electric vehicle
