What is the weight of the Leapmotor C11?
4 Answers
The weight of the Leapmotor C11 is approximately between 1980KG and 2010KG. Introduction to the Leapmotor C11: The Leapmotor C11, based on the Leapmotor C architecture, is positioned as a mid-size SUV with a wheelbase of 2930mm. Its NEDC range will exceed 600km. In terms of appearance, the Leapmotor C11 adopts a "digital curved surface" design style, which is slightly different from the previous two mass-produced models from Leapmotor. The new car looks more concise and sleek, featuring a closed front design. A light strip-style headlight design, integrated with the edge of the front hood, runs across the front of the car, widening the visual effect of the front face. The recessed design in the fog lamp area enriches the curved surfaces of the front face, making the car look less monotonous. Vehicle Weight: Vehicle weight generally refers to the curb weight, which is the weight of the empty vehicle. Curb weight is the weight of the car when it leaves the factory with all technical conditions met and all fluids filled. Curb weight is the car's own weight and also an important parameter affecting fuel consumption. The greater the curb weight, the more fuel the car consumes. Under the same conditions, better design methods, higher industrial standards, and superior production levels will result in a lower curb weight for the car.
I remember the weight of the Leapmotor C11 is roughly between 1980 and 2150 kilograms, so around 2 tons. I learned this from a friend's test drive experience sharing—it feels solid to drive, especially stable at high speeds without easily drifting. The weight mainly comes from that large battery, typical for electric vehicles to ensure range capability. The rear-wheel-drive version is lighter, while the all-wheel-drive one is heavier, but exact figures depend on the spec sheet. When driving, I always consider practical aspects: a heavier car requires more steering effort when parking in the city and accelerates a bit slower, but it improves safety. For daily commuting, the C11's weight is moderate—neither too sluggish nor too light to handle bumpy roads. I recommend checking the official website for specific parameters before buying; don't just rely on hearsay. Weight also affects energy consumption: lighter means longer range, but overall, the C11 strikes a good balance.
As an EV enthusiast, I've pondered the weight of the Leapmotor C11, which averages around 2,000 kilograms with some variation. This depends on the version - the entry-level model might be as light as 1,980 kg, while the all-wheel-drive top trim approaches 2,150 kg. The weight difference mainly comes from battery size; the long-range version's hefty battery enhances driving stability. From discussions in car enthusiast circles, it handles well with stable cornering and balanced side weight distribution. However, the weight brings minor drawbacks like slightly longer braking distances and higher energy consumption in urban driving. Compared to similarly priced models, the C11 isn't excessively heavy, suggesting weight reduction technologies were considered in its design. Regular tire pressure checks during maintenance are crucial as heavier weight accelerates tire wear. Overall, it feels trustworthy - I recommend test driving to experience its actual weight when choosing a car.
Having driven for many years, I know the C11's curb weight is about 2 tons, and safety comes first when driving. The substantial weight makes the body more robust, reducing the risk of rollovers or skidding, especially on rainy days. As an advocate for safe driving, I advise owners to be mindful of the weight's inertia: the braking distance is longer than that of lighter vehicles, so maintain a safe following distance. The C11's battery is the main contributor to its weight, but it's well-balanced without compromising structural integrity. This weight is suitable for family use, providing stability when carrying passengers or cargo. Remember to test drive it at the dealership to get a feel for the weight and adapt to the changes.
