China's Leapmotor said on Tuesday it has entered the South American market with back-to-back launches in Brazil and Chile, including a debut at the São Paulo Motor Show.

The EV maker has introduced pure-electric and range-extended versions of its C10, along with the B10, in both countries. It plans to establish 36 outlets across 27 Brazilian cities and five in Chile by the end of 2025, and later expand into Argentina, Colombia and Ecuador.
