What brand is Leopaard?
2 Answers
Leopaard is an independent automobile brand, the abbreviated name of Hunan Leopaard Automobile Co., Ltd. It is a comprehensive automotive manufacturer engaged in the R&D, production, sales and service of complete vehicles and components, affiliated to Changfeng Group with headquarters in Changsha, Hunan. Its SUV lineup mainly includes Leopaard MATTU, Leopaard CS10, Leopaard CS9, Leopaard CS9EV, Leopaard Q6 and Leopaard Black King Kong. Taking Leopaard CS10 as an example, this model serves as the flagship urban SUV in Leopaard's portfolio, featuring crystal-cut headlight design with projector-equipped halogen low beams and integrated daytime running lights within the headlight cluster.
Leopaard Auto is one of our domestic independent brands. I remember when I first got into cars, it was quite famous in the off-road community. It originally transformed from Changfeng Auto with a military-industrial background, producing off-road vehicles like the Black King Kong, which imitated Mitsubishi's technology and offered high cost performance. Later, it shifted to urban SUVs, launching models such as the CS10 and Mattu, mostly equipped with 1.5T or 2.0T engines, with moderate fuel consumption but mixed reliability. Nowadays, the brand's popularity has declined a bit, but you can still see many older models in the second-hand market, suitable for friends with limited budgets. As for maintenance tips, if you've driven one, pay attention to chassis inspections to avoid rust issues, as the design inherits some old traditions.
