Chinese new energy vehicle (NEV) startups have released their October 2025 delivery results — and Leapmotor continues to dominate the field.

The Stellantis-backed automaker delivered 70,289 vehicles, marking its sixth straight month of record-breaking sales and an 84% year-on-year growth.

From January to October, Leapmotor has sold 465,805 vehicles, up 120% year-on-year, maintaining the top position among NEV startups for eight consecutive months. The company is targeting 580,000–650,000 deliveries in 2025, aiming to cross the one-million mark next year.

In our market, Leapmotor offers three models: the premium C10 SUV, the B10 compact SUV, and the T03 city hatchback. 

Leapmotor also has a strong product pipeline. The Lafa 5 hatchback (B05) will enter pre-sale on November 7, while the B01 sedan is set to debut at the Guangzhou Auto Show later this month.

Meanwhile, the D19 large SUV, the first model in Leapmotor’s new D-series, was unveiled in mid-October, with deliveries expected in early 2026.

Close behind, HIMA (Harmony Intelligent Mobility Alliance) posted 68,216 deliveries, its highest monthly figure yet. With an average transaction price of ≈USD 54,800 and cumulative sales now surpassing one million units, HIMA becomes the fastest NEV startup to hit that milestone.

Xpeng followed with 42,013 deliveries, a 76% year-on-year increase. It has now maintained over 40,000 monthly deliveries for two consecutive months and reached 355,209 units in the first ten months of 2025 — up 190% year-on-year.
