Leapmotor says it wants to be more than a cheap EV brand and its Chinese factory tour showed us how it plans to do that.

Leapmotor’s huge D19 flagship SUV packs six or seven seats, EV or range-extender power, and serious luxury intent, but will it work in Australia?

China’s B05 Ultra gives Leapmotor’s compact electric hatch a warmer rear-drive flagship, but our drive left us with a lot of unanswered questions.

The Chinese EV brand says its export-market cars are being developed with input from Stellantis engineers – and Australia could get its own tune if the business case stacks up.

The Stellantis-backed brand says it sees other Chinese brands as its real rivals in Australia, but for now it won’t copy their multi-brand strategy.

The Chinese brand says new export-market models will get a physical key, while existing models are expected to follow with a model-year update.

The Chinese brand’s new top-shelf SUV is likely for local release, with Leapmotor's export-market localisation program set to finish within 12 months.

The Chinese brand says the Asia-Pacific has become a bigger focus but it doesn’t yet have the ladder-frame platform needed for a traditional dual-cab.

The proving ground of Jeep's off-roading credentials is harsher and more visually striking than we could have ever imagined.

As more automakers copy Jeep's rugged design, the American off-road brand says it only bolsters its own identity.

Jeep may be suffering a sales decline in Australia, but the brand says it's committed to right-hand drive production and the Australian market.

Chinese brands now hold 24 per cent of Australia’s new-car market, but BDO warns the current dealer rush may not be sustainable.
