In a smart and customer-first move, Leapmotor has rolled out its own EV purchase grant in the UK — offering discounts of up to £3,750 on its electric vehicles. This bold step makes Leapmotor the first carmaker in the UK to introduce a manufacturer-led rebate after the government announced its Electric Car Grant (ECG), which hasn’t yet gone live for buyers.

What Is Leapmotor’s EV Grant?
The “Leap Grant,” effective from 18th July 2025, offers:
- £1,500 off the T03 hatchback
- £3,750 off the C10 electric SUV
This makes the T03 start at just £14,495, officially making it the most affordable new electric car in the UK — undercutting rivals like the Dacia Spring. The C10, now starting at £32,750, brings a premium EV experience at a much more accessible price.
Why This Move?
The UK government’s £650 million ECG scheme aims to promote EV adoption with grants up to £3,750. However, it’s tied to complex emissions-based criteria and hasn’t been fully implemented yet. Instead of waiting, Leapmotor has taken charge, giving customers instant clarity and savings.

What You Get With T03 & C10
- T03: Compact city EV, 132 kW peak power, range of 265 miles (WLTP), and now the cheapest new EV in the UK.
- C10: D-segment SUV, 160 kW motor, 69.9 kWh battery, up to 263-mile range, stylish and tech-loaded.
Both models are also now available with 0% APR for 48 months on PCP finance, making them even easier to own.
Should You Buy Now?
If you’ve been considering an EV, now is a great time. Leapmotor’s discounts are live, while government rebates are still tangled in bureaucracy. This deal could be short-lived — so if you’re eyeing a budget EV or premium electric SUV, the time to act is now.
