Leapmotor Ireland is proud to announce the official list-price and comprehensive specification of its highly anticipated Leapmotor B05 C-Hatchback. Arriving on Irish forecourts next month, B05 is positioned to become one of the best-value electric hatchbacks on the market. Joining Leapmotor Ireland’s rapidly expanding EV lineup, alongside the T03 city car, B10 SUV, and C10 family SUV, B05 embodies the brand’s “Value Without Compromise” philosophy by offering premium EV technology at an accessible price point.

B05 represents an ambitious step into the C-segment hatchback market, offering a premium experience at traditional B-segment prices:

 

Leapmotor B05 arrives packed with high-quality features and advanced technology across 2 distinct trims: STYLE; featuring a wide-body coupe-inspired silhouette, frameless doors, hidden handles, a blade-style lighting signature, 19-inch aerodynamic alloy wheels, a panoramic sunroof, and 21 ADAS safety features; and DESIGN; which adds eco-leather upholstery, ambient lighting, heated front seats, and a dedicated Launch Control mode.

 

With class-leading proportions including a 1,880 mm shoulder width and a drag coefficient of just 0.26, the B05 is perfectly suited for Irish roads. Inside, B05’s interior is anchored by a dual-screen cockpit featuring a 14.6" floating infotainment display and an 8.8" digital cluster, serving as the high-tech centrepiece of the cabin, powered by Leapmotor's latest operating system, Leap OS 4.0 Plus.

 

Performance is equally impressive, with a high-efficiency electric motor delivering 218 hp and 240 Nm of torque, accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in just 6.7 seconds. Co-developed with Stellantis’ global chassis team, the B05 has been specifically tuned to meet European driving expectations. It features a rear-wheel-drive architecture, perfect 50:50 weight distribution, and MacPherson front/multi-link rear suspension. Both battery variants are supported by ultra-fast DC charging via its innovative Cell-to-Chassis (CTC) architecture, enabling a quick 30-80% charge in approximately 17 minutes.

 

The integrated Leapmotor App enables full remote access to key vehicle functions, including climate control, charging scheduling, vehicle status monitoring, and digital key functionality, ensuring a fully connected and intuitive user experience.

 

Stephen McGrath, Brand Manager of Leapmotor Ireland, commented: “The Leapmotor B05 marks an exhilarating ‘next level’ for the brand; a sporty, design-led hatchback that injects real personality and style back into electric driving, just as Leapmotor’s momentum in Ireland gathers pace. Paired with the T03, B10 and C10, the B05 supercharges our ‘Value Without Compromise’ promise, delivering a genuinely affordable, standout challenger in the segment.”

 

As the newest EV brand on Irish roads, Leapmotor is redefining the market with its “Value Without Compromise” philosophy, delivering premium technology and high-end specification as standard, with no hidden extras.
