LEPAS has confirmed full UK specification for the new L6 EV, an all-electric C-segment SUV bringing together elegant design, advanced technology and practicality.

Joining the flagship L8 PHEV, the L6 EV – the brand’s first all-electric SUV - has been designed around modern urban life. Its well-balanced dimensions are combined with a spacious interior, generous electric range and technology designed to make everyday driving easier.

UK customers can choose between two generously equipped trim levels. Essence, which includes a comprehensive suite of technology, safety and comfort features and Elevate, which adds further luxury, convenience and intelligent parking technology.

Both variants use a 65kWh lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery and front-mounted electric motor producing 160kW (217PS) and 275Nm of torque, with acceleration from 0–62mph in 7.9 seconds and a top speed of 111mph. Its 279-mile WLTP range is designed to cover everyday journeys as well as longer trips. When charging is needed, the 120kW DC capability provides a 30–80 per cent charge in approximately 22 minutes.

The L6 EV is built on LEPAS' LEX Platform, a new-energy architecture developed around intelligence, efficiency and safety. The EV’s integrated 12-in-1 electric drive system has been designed for efficiency and smooth power delivery, with electric power steering and an electric brake booster are standard.

The L6 EV features Bosch IBP 2.0 braking technology which has been developed to improve braking performance, energy recovery and pedal feel, whilst also reducing the pitching sensation sometimes associated with electric vehicles.

As with the L8, LEPAS' European chassis team carried out dedicated development work to refine the L6 EV for European roads, engineered to combine smooth electric performance with the ride comfort and predictable handling expected by European drivers.

Exterior styling: Leopard-inspired elegance

The L6 EV brings LEPAS' Leopard Aesthetics design philosophy to the C-SUV market. Its clean, flowing shape includes details inspired by the movement, confidence and agility of one nature’s most elegant predators.

Signature 'Hunting Eye' LED headlights are joined by a wide-body profile inspired by a leopard in motion and distinctive LED rear lighting.

At 4,570mm long, 1,852mm wide (excluding mirrors) and 1,676mm high, the L6 EV combines SUV road presence with dimensions suited to towns and cities. A 2,700mm wheelbase helps maximise passenger space, while 159mm of ground clearance adds everyday versatility.

Both Essence and Elevate feature 19-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels. Standard equipment also includes LED headlights with Intelligent High Beam Assist, LED daytime running lights and LED rear lights. Electrically adjustable, heated and power-folding door mirrors with puddle lights are also standard.

Privacy glass is fitted to the rear windows and tailgate, while acoustic laminated front side windows help reduce outside noise.

In addition to the free of charge Lucid White, L6 EV features five other pearlescent exterior colours priced at £500: Phantom Grey, Cosmic Black, Quicksilver, alongside the vibrant Solar Orange and Supernova Purple.

Interior: Designed around modern urban life

The L6 EV’s interior has been designed to feel calm, spacious and intuitive. Advanced technology is integrated into a clean and uncluttered cabin.

A wrap-around cockpit puts the driver at the centre of the experience, while the 13.2-inch waterfall-style central touchscreen display brings a sense of minimalism while the large panoramic sunroof brings natural light into the cabin.

LEPAS’s intelligent LEX Platform has allowed designers to create a flat floor in the rear, creating more space and giving rear passengers more room to stretch out.

The boot provides 410 litres of luggage space, increasing to 1,334 litres with the rear seats folded. A further 99 litres of hidden underfloor storage provides space for charging equipment, shopping and other items.

Both models come with a panoramic sunroof with electric sunshade, dual-zone climate control, rear air vents and a heated multifunction steering wheel, whilst heated front windscreen, keyless entry and go and 40/60 split-folding rear seats are also standard.

The entry-level Essence trim features Basalt Black fabric upholstery and six-way manually adjustable front seats.

Elevate adds Basalt Black full leather-effect upholstery and six-way power adjustment for both front seats, with the driver also benefiting from four-way power lumbar adjustment. Heated and ventilated front seats are standard on Elevate, along with a power tailgate, Nano-Aqua Ion Air Purification System and 256-colour ambient lighting.

Safety: Protection built in

Safety has been engineered into the L6 EV from the start. Developed in line with 2026 Euro NCAP testing protocols, the L6 EV combines a strong passenger structure with extensive airbag protection, driver assistance technology and high-voltage battery protection.

Both models feature 22 advanced driver assistance functions. These include Autonomous Emergency Braking, Forward Collision Warning, Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Keep Assist, Emergency Lane Keeping, Blind Spot Detection and Traffic Jam Assist.

Rear Traffic Cross Alert and Rear Traffic Cross Braking are also standard. Other features include Rear Collision Warning, Door Open Warning, Intelligent Speed Limit Control and Front Distance Monitoring.

Front and rear parking sensors and a 540° panoramic camera system are standard on both models, with Elevate adding Advanced Parking Assist (APA) and Remote Parking Assist (RPA).

Infotainment and connectivity: Intelligent technology as standard

Both trim levels feature a 13.2-inch central touchscreen and 8.88-inch Retina LCD digital driver display. A Qualcomm 8155 infotainment processor powers the L6 EV’s connected features, making use sharp and responsive.

The ‘Hello LEPAS’ AI-powered voice assistant allows drivers to control key vehicle functions using voice commands, limiting distractions whilst driving.

Both models feature 50W wireless smartphone charging with active cooling, two front USB-C ports and USB-A and USB-C connections for rear passengers.

Essence features a six-speaker audio system, whilst Elevate upgrades this to a SONY premium eight-speaker system.

A standard 3.3kW Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) function also allows owners to use energy stored in the L6 EV’s battery to power compatible external electrical equipment – adding useful flexibility for everything from outdoor activities to camping trips.

Warranty and ownership

Every LEPAS L6 EV comes with a 7-year/100,000-mile manufacturer warranty and an 8-year/100,000-mile high-voltage battery warranty. A 12-year/unlimited-mileage corrosion perforation guarantee and 3-year/unlimited-mileage paintwork guarantee is also included.

RAC Roadside Assistance is provided for the first 12 months and is automatically renewed for up to seven years when scheduled servicing is completed at an authorised LEPAS service centre, whilst Over-the-Air (OTA) and Firmware-Over-the-Air (FOTA) updates allow software and vehicle functions to be updated throughout the car's life.

Order books for LEPAS L6 EV will open in early Q4 of 2026. To find out more about LEPAS UK, please visit: www.lepasauto.co.uk/
