York, Ward & Rowlatt


Dan Robinson, Franchise Director at York, Ward & Rowlatt,


New name leading the charge in greener motoring


T ere’s something of a buzz about a new name in electric vehicles and the York Ward & Rowlatt dealership in Wellingborough is seeing signifi cant interest from customers since it introduced the new range. Leapmotor is an electric-only range that combines intelligent


technology, modern styling and zero-emissions performance. Off ering a compact city car and a stylish SUV, Leapmotor has a model that will meet most requirements, and each car comes complete with innovative features, smart connectivity and advanced safety systems. Joining the York, Ward & Rowlatt electric range, which also


includes Vauxhall and Peugeot models, Leapmotor is a Chinese brand that is new to the UK. And with a number of fi nance deals available for businesses looking to update or expand their fl eet, it is likely to be an attractive option.


said: “What we are fi nding with this brand is the price point for what is a full-spec vehicle. We are part of the Stellantis family and they approached us to represent Leapmotor and we feel it’s the way forward. “People are now thinking more about switching to electric cars,


putting in a charger in at home or at their offi ces so they have their own infrastructure, and businesses are especially keen to switch as they consider their environmental goals and reducing their carbon footprint. Employees are keen too, not only because they want greener transport, but it also means you can have a £40,000 car and pay hardly anything in benefi ts-in-kind.”


The C10 T e Leapmotor C10 off ers a range of up to 263 miles and a charging time of 30 minutes from 30% to 80%. At 218HP it goes from 0 to 62mph in 7.5 seconds and was awarded


a Euro NCAP and ANCAP fi ve-star rating thanks to its 12 sensors and advanced driver assistance systems, providing a safer and stress-free driving experience. T e interior is spacious and comfortable with heated seats that


have the benefi ts of leather but are manufactured from responsible and sustainable natural resources.
