Two of the big pan-European data sources list the C10 with an 11 kW three phase charger, which would mean 7.4 kW on a British supply. Three UK sources say 6.6 kW single phase: Leapmotor own UK press pack, one of the major UK motoring titles, and a UK used car guide which publishes a full charge time of ten hours forty minutes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThat last figure settles it arithmetically. Sixty-nine point nine kilowatt hours over ten hours forty minutes is 6.55 kW, which is a 6.6 kW charger and nothing else; a 7.4 kW car would be done in nine and a half hours and an 11 kW one in six and a quarter. So we write the C10 as a 6.6 kW car.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is one of the cars that loses nothing on a domestic supply. The 6.6 kW charger is single phase by design at roughly 29 amps, well inside what a home charge point provides, so the car takes its full rated power on any ordinary driveway. The practical consequence is worth stating plainly: a 7 kW home charge point is throttled by the car rather than the other way round, so nothing above a 32A lead is of any use here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA word about the published charge times\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe German catalogue quotes 234 minutes to a full charge for this car, which on a 69.9 kWh pack implies 17.9 kilowatts. That is impossible for any onboard charger this car could have, and the same source gives figures for other Leapmotors that are equally hard to reconcile. We have used the UK sources and our own arithmetic instead, and we would treat that catalogue charging block as unreliable for this brand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLeapmotor UK own figure, thirty to eighty per cent in about six hours, works out at 5.73 kW average and is consistent with a 6.6 kW ceiling. A heavier lead makes no difference, because nothing downstream of the onboard charger sets the pace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBattery, range and rapid charging\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe pack is 69.9 kWh and the UK price guide quotes 263 miles WLTP, with earlier press material saying 261 to 262. DC charging reaches 84 kW for a thirty to eighty stop of half an hour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhat nobody labels is whether 69.9 kWh is the gross or the usable figure. The German catalogue calls it gross; an independent database calls it usable and posits 72 kWh gross. No Leapmotor document says either way, so we treat it as the published capacity and leave the basis open rather than guess.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow long a full charge takes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCable\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePower drawn at home\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eEmpty to full, 69.9 kWh battery\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRange added per hour\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType 2, 32A at 6.6 kW, the car maximum\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6.6 kW\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12 hours\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eabout 23 miles\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType 2, 16A at 3.6 kW\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.6 kW\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e22 hours\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eabout 13 miles\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType 2 to 3 Pin from a socket\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.3 kW\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e34 hours 15 mins\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eabout 8 miles\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTimes below are computed from the pack size and the power drawn with 13 per cent allowed for charging losses. Miles per hour is worked at 3.5 miles per kWh, a figure that survives a cold morning. Working from the 69.9 kWh published figure, which lands close to the measured ten hours forty minutes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTwelve hours from genuinely flat is the arithmetic; nobody drives a 263 mile car to nought. At 6.6 kW the C10 gains about 23 miles an hour, so a seven hour off peak window covers a 160 mile day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhich length for a C10\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe socket is on the nearside rear, confirmed as \"back left\" by a UK source describing a right hand drive car, so there is no translation to worry about.
