The Leapmotor C10 AWD Sports+ Special Edition has gained a new Dawn Purple exterior colour as part of a fresh limited run, while retaining its $53,888 plus on-road costs price and potent 440kW dual-motor powertrain.

The Key Details
- Dawn Purple joins the Leapmotor C10 AWD Sports+ colour palette
- Flagship electric SUV remains priced from $53,888 plus on-road costs
- Dual-motor all-wheel drive powertrain continues to produce 440kW
- 81.9kWh battery provides up to 437km of WLTP range
- Free 7kW AC wall charger offered on eligible vehicles until the end of 2026
The Finer Details
Dawn Purple is paired with grey Sports+ side decals, giving buyers a third colour and decal combination alongside Pearl White with black graphics and Metallic Black with grey graphics.
Otherwise, the formula is unchanged from the C10 AWD Sports+ Special Edition introduced earlier this year.
Its dual-motor all-wheel drive system develops 440kW, while an 81.9kWh lithium iron phosphate battery is claimed to provide up to 437km of WLTP driving range.
An 800-volt electrical architecture enables DC fast charging at up to 180kW, with Leapmotor claiming the battery can be replenished from 30 to 80 per cent in about 22 minutes.
The visual changes remain relatively subtle. Beyond the side graphics, the Sports+ receives unique rear badging, red contrast stitching on its interior mats and an embroidered cargo mat.
Standard equipment carries over too, including 20-inch alloy wheels, a fixed panoramic glass roof, heated and ventilated front seats, heated steering wheel, 14.6-inch central touchscreen and 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster.
There’s also a 12-speaker sound system, wireless phone charging, 360-degree camera and Leapmotor’s suite of Level 2 driver assistance systems.
Leapmotor Australia Head Andy Hoang said the new treatment was intended to give the performance flagship more visual distinction.
“The AWD Sports+ Special Edition builds on that success by adding greater exclusivity and visual differentiation while retaining the exceptional performance and everyday practicality that customers love about the Leapmotor C10,” he said.
The Road Ahead
The Dawn Purple C10 AWD Sports+ forms part of a limited run, although Leapmotor Australia hasn’t specified how many examples will be available.
Pricing remains unchanged at $53,888 plus on-road costs.
Leapmotor is also offering a free 7kW AC wall charger, valued at up to $800, with C10 AWD Sports+ models ordered and delivered between October 1 and December 31, 2026, subject to the offer’s terms and conditions.
The C10 remains backed by a six-year/150,000km vehicle warranty and eight-year/160,000km high-voltage battery warranty, with eight years of roadside assistance and capped-price servicing also included.
