Leapmotor has confirmed pricing and specifications for the B03X small electric SUV in Australia. The B03X Style costs $29,990 drive-away and the B03X Design LR (Long Range) costs $33,990 drive-away. Cars arrive in dealerships in November.
The B03X is now the most affordable all-electric SUV in Australia, sitting below the BYD Atto 2 Dynamic ($31,990 plus ORC). The B03X is sold as the A10 in China and becomes Leapmotor's fourth model here, after the C10, B10 and B05. It sits below the B10 in the range and goes up against the BYD Atto 2 and GWM Ora 5.
Leapmotor B03X price in Australia
The B03X comes in two grades. Both use a single front-mounted motor and a lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery.

Variant | Battery | Range (WLTP) | Power | MSRP | Drive-away |
Style | 39.8kWh LFP | Up to 292km | 130kW | $26,990 | $29,990 |
Design LR | 53kWh LFP | Up to 382km | 145kW | $30,990 | $33,990 |
The MSRP includes GST and excludes on-road costs and dealer delivery. The drive-away price includes 12 months of registration, CTP insurance, stamp duty and dealer delivery.
The drive-away prices are a promotion, not permanent pricing. They apply to new B03X cars in Acorn Brown that are bought and delivered between 1 October and 31 December 2026, or while stocks last. Other colours cost extra. Premium paint adds $990 on either grade. The offer excludes government, fleet and rental buyers, and Leapmotor Australia says it can change, withdraw or extend the price.

Battery, range and charging
The Style uses a 39.8kWh LFP battery rated at up to 292km on the WLTP cycle. The Design LR uses a 53kWh LFP battery rated at up to 382km. Both grades have an 11kW onboard AC charger, so home charging speed is the same.
DC fast charging peaks at 100kW on the Style and 133kW on the Design LR. Leapmotor quotes a 30 to 80 per cent charge in about 16 minutes under optimal conditions. Both grades also support vehicle-to-load (V2L) at up to 3.3kW, which lets you power external devices from the car's battery.

Price
The B03X Design LR and Ora 5 Lux both cost $33,990 drive-away. The Atto 2 Premium lists at $35,990 before on-road costs, so it costs more once registration, stamp duty and delivery are added. BYD ran a $2000 offer on the Atto 2 Premium in August and September, which ended on 30 September. The B03X price is a promotional offer that runs to 31 December 2026.
Range and charging
The B03X Design LR has the longest WLTP range of the three at 382km, ahead of the Atto 2 at 345km. GWM quotes the Ora 5's 430km on the WLTC cycle, which is not directly comparable with WLTP figures. The B03X has the highest peak DC charging speed at 133kW. The Atto 2 is the slowest at 82kW.
Size and equipment
The B03X is the shortest of the three, at 4,270mm long. The Ora 5 is about 200mm longer and has a 115mm longer wheelbase. On equipment, the B03X Design LR has the most speakers and heated front seats. The Atto 2 Premium adds ventilated front seats and a panoramic glass roof. The Ora 5 Lux misses out on heated seats, which are fitted to the Ultra grade.
The Ora 5 has the longest warranty, with unlimited kilometres on both the vehicle and the battery. The B03X and Atto 2 have matching warranties.
Specifications for the Atto 2 and Ora 5 come from BYD and GWM launch information and published reports. Boot space figures are not measured the same way across all three brands.
