Exterior Design: Star-Ring Light Signature

The D19 features Leapmotor’s family design language with a star-ring continuous light bar connecting split headlights at the front - a highly distinctive visual identity. The rear mirrors this with a full-width continuous tail light. Five color options: Pine Valley Green, Liquid Silver, Metallic Black, Skylight Grey, and Photoelectric White.

Dimensions: 5,252mm long, 1,995mm wide, 1,800mm tall, with a 3,110mm wheelbase. The BEV version includes a front trunk (frunk) - reflected in the different hood line versus the EREV variant.

Interior: 60-Inch AR-HUD, 21.4-Inch Rear Screen

The D19’s tech stack is extraordinary for its price point. The screen ecosystem includes:

• 60-inch all-weather AR-HUD - the widest in any production vehicle
• 17.3-inch central touchscreen (floating design)
• 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster
• 21.4-inch 3K motorized rear entertainment screen
• 6-inch rear multi-function control panel

Luxury touches include: onboard oxygen generator, dual foldable rear tray tables, a full electric car-grade refrigerator (8.1L, -6°C to 50°C), intelligent fragrance system with 3 custom scents and 3 intensity levels, and B-pillar grab handles. Seating configurations: 5, 6, or 7 seats.

ADAS: Sensory System Camera Integrated into Door Handles

One of the most striking design details on the D19 is the integrated “Sensory System” camera built into the door handle. The flush-mounted camera provides 360° surround view coverage while maintaining the clean exterior lines - no protruding camera pods anywhere on the body.

Powertrain: 1000V BEV vs EREV Options

Pure Electric (BEV):

• 1000V ultra-high voltage platform
• CATL latest mixed-cell battery: 115kWh
• CLTC range: 720km
• Motor options: 180kW or 230kW
• Triple-motor variant: 3×180kW = 540kW combined

Extended Range (EREV):

• 1.5T range extender (95kW, from Aurora Bay Technology)
• 80.3kWh battery pack
• CLTC pure EV range: 500km
• 40L fuel tank with dual-motor AWD
• Triple-motor EREV variant: front 100kW + dual rear 150kW each

Why This Is a Big Deal

A large 7-seat SUV with a 60-inch AR-HUD, 21.4-inch rear screen, onboard oxygen generator, built-in fridge, and 1000V fast charging with 720km range - all starting at approximately $34,500 USD. For comparison, a similarly-sized BMW X7 or Mercedes GLS starts at $90,000+. The technology and space gap between Chinese and Western luxury SUVs is closing rapidly, with Chinese brands now leading on smart features and value.
