Leapmotor C10 charging speed
The Leapmotor C10 does not have one charging speed — it depends on the variant. It is 11 kW three-phase on the BEV (2026, Style / Design LR), and 6.6 kW single-phase on the REEV (range extender). Which one you own changes what you should install at home.
It depends which Leapmotor C10 you have
This is the trap. Two cars wearing the same badge can need completely different chargers, and the dealer is unlikely to mention it. Find your variant below before you spend anything.
The BEV (2026, Style / Design LR) — 11 kW three-phase
This car draws 7.4 kW single-phase and 11 kW on three-phase — a gain of about 3.6 kW. Real, but modest. If you already have three-phase, use it. If you don't, the upgrade is hard to justify on charging speed alone.
The REEV (range extender) — 6.6 kW single-phase
The Leapmotor C10 has a single-phase onboard charger. On a 22 kW three-phase charger it draws 6.6 kW — exactly what a cheaper 32 A single-phase unit already gives it. Upgrading your home to three-phase, which typically costs $2,500–$6,000, would not make this car charge one minute faster. Buy a 32 A single-phase charger and spend the difference on something else.
The short answer
On the standard Australian home charger — 32 A single-phase — The BEV (2026, Style / Design LR) draws 7.4 kW, adding roughly 38 km of range per hour. Over an eight-hour overnight window that is about 303 km — far more than most Australians drive in a day.
On the standard Australian home charger — 32 A single-phase — The REEV (range extender) draws 6.6 kW, adding roughly 32 km of range per hour. Over an eight-hour overnight window that is about 257 km — far more than most Australians drive in a day.
What every charger actually delivers
Every figure below is computed live from this car's onboard charger rating, not copied from a brochure. "Wasted" is capacity you would pay for and never use.
The BEV (2026, Style / Design LR) — 11 kW three-phase
| Charger | Supply | This car draws | Range per hour | 20–80% | Wasted |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 A power point | Single-phase | 1.8 kW | 9 km | 1 day 1 h | — |
| 15 A power point | Single-phase | 2.8 kW | 14 km | 16 h 5 min | — |
| 32 A single-phase charger | Single-phase | 7.4 kW | 38 km | 6 h 2 min | — |
| 16 A three-phase charger | Three-phase | 11 kW | 57 km | 4 h 2 min | — |
| 32 A three-phase charger | Three-phase | 11 kW | 57 km | 4 h 2 min | 11 |
Assumes a battery of 66.6 kWh and real-world consumption of 175 Wh/km (segment estimate). Charging losses of about 10% are included. Change the assumptions in the calculator →

Charging by variant
| Variant | Onboard AC charger | Type | Battery (kWh) | DC max (kW) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BEV (2026, Style / Design LR) | 11 kW | Three-phase | 66.6 | 180 |
| REEV (range extender) | 6.6 kW | Single-phase | 28.4 | 65 |
Notes
- Three-phase 11 kW on the 2026 model year. The earlier 2024 C10 was 6.6 kW single-phase, so check the year.
- Range-extender: a petrol generator tops up a small battery. Single-phase 6.6 kW AC, so a bigger charger cannot help.
