These figures cover list price and home charging only - insurance, servicing, tyres and depreciation will move the real total.
What are the Deepal S05 and Leapmotor B10 like on a long motorway trip?
EVcarsguide estimates a real-world motorway range of about 231 miles for the Deepal S05 and 193 miles for the Leapmotor B10 - both below their WLTP figures, because sustained high speed is the hardest case for an EV. The Deepal S05 goes roughly 38 miles further between charging stops. Both rapid-charge to 80% in a similar time, around 15-20 minutes.
Which is easier to park and drive in town, the Deepal S05 or the Leapmotor B10?
The two are within 15 mm on width, so neither is meaningfully easier to thread into a tight space. In a standard 2,400 mm bay that leaves about 515 mm of total clearance for the Leapmotor B10 and about 500 mm of total clearance for the Deepal S05.
Which battery will hold up better as a used buy, the Deepal S05 or the Leapmotor B10?
Over a 8-year ownership window EVcarsguide's degradation model projects roughly 90% battery health for the Deepal S05 and 90% for the Leapmotor B10. That is close enough that capacity loss should not decide between them. Both use LFP-type cells, which are happy charged to 100% every day.
