Leapmotor B05 2026 Price and Range in Austria: What the €26,490 Deal Actually Gets You
Leapmotor's B05 electric hatchback is now in Austrian showrooms from €26,490, though the promo price applies only to the shorter-range Life Pro trim.
Leapmotor says its B05 electric hatchback has now physically reached dealers, arriving at all 41 of the brand's outlets in Austria. This isn't the model's debut — European pre-orders opened back on April 23. The promotional starting price is €26,490 including VAT, or roughly $30,700 at current exchange rates. That figure already includes a €500 bonus.
The price comes with an important catch. The base B05 Life Pro gets a 56.2 kWh battery good for up to 401 km on the WLTP cycle. The maximum 482 km applies only to the Design Pro Max, which carries a 67.1 kWh pack. Austrian dealers currently list that version's promotional price at €30,490 — roughly $35,300.
The powertrain is identical across both versions: a rear-mounted electric motor produces 218 hp and 240 Nm of torque. The 0-100 km/h sprint takes 6.7 seconds. Up front is a McPherson strut setup, with a multi-link arrangement at the rear, and Leapmotor claims a 50:50 weight distribution. Chassis tuning for Europe was handled together with Stellantis engineers.
Fast-charging capability also differs between the two. The 56.2 kWh battery tops out at 156 kW, while the 67.1 kWh pack accepts up to 174 kW — a 30-80% charge takes roughly 16-18 minutes under favorable conditions. Standard equipment includes a 14.6-inch central display, seven airbags, and 21 driver-assistance systems.
