ZaragozaLeapmotor’s B10 now shares a line with the Corsa.
Building in Spain lowers reliance on exports from China, which face EU countervailing tariffs.
A battery plant 30 km away assembles modules and packs from imported cells, and Leapmotor puts local content at 40%.
Tariff treatment still depends on origin rules, so local assembly does not guarantee relief.
Leapmotor will start building the B05 in Zaragoza in the first half of 2027.
