China’s Leapmotor sells cheapest EV in UK after mirroring government grant

New discount programme intended to exclude Chinese manufacturers

Chinese electric vehicle brand Leapmotor has started offering the UK’s cheapest battery car after reducing its prices in line with a new government grant — despite being unlikely to qualify for the discount.

Its price cuts of £1,500 and £3,750 are the same levels as the grants offered by the government under a scheme intended to persuade consumers to purchase battery cars, but with conditions that are specifically tailored to prevent Chinese brands qualifying.
