The Leap engine production in Spain Starts in 2026: Leap motor shifts parts of its production to Europe and uses capacities of the Stellatis network. For you, this means lower costs, shorter delivery routes and fewer customs costs for Chinese e-cars.
What is planned
Leap motor produces locally in Spanish works (Zaragoza is a nearby location) and integrates Stellantis resources for logistics, dealer network and manufacturing infrastructure. The aim is to have a quick market launch with local battery and vehicle structure in order to increase competitiveness and price stability in Europe.
Models & schedule
The first model is the crossover B10 planned, shortly afterwards the B05 consequences. The start of production is scheduled for 2026; Short start -up times and flexible retrofits should enable fast model changes. Sales and After-Sales run via Stellatis partners, which means that the Leap motor can access established dealers and service networks directly.
Why this is important for Europe
Local production reduces transport costs and bypass tariffs, stabilizes supply chains and facilitates spare parts supply. The proximity to planned cell factories (joint venture projects) strengthens the value chain on site and can significantly influence prices-a clear advantage for European customers.
Short conclusion
With the production in Spain, Leap motor relies on localization and the Stellantis network to grow quickly, cost-effective and customs arm in Europe. For you, this means: faster availability, better service connections and potentially more attractive prices for volume-oriented e-models.
