Flagship Leapmotor D19 Crossover: Interior Revealed Ahead of 2026 Launch

Leapmotor is preparing to launch its most expensive and technologically advanced crossover to date. The upcoming Leapmotor D19, available as both a range-extender hybrid (EREV) and a fully electric SUV, has now partially revealed its interior for the first time.

The three-row flagship was officially previewed in mid-October, but only now have interior sketches and partial cabin images been published. Leapmotor has confirmed that the full interior reveal will take place next week. The D19 will debut in China in 2026, with “blind” pre-orders already open despite the absence of final specifications and pricing.

First Model of Leapmotor’s New D-Series

The D19 is the first vehicle in Leapmotor’s new flagship D-series, positioned clearly above the current C-series models. It targets the large, premium family SUV segment, competing with high-end Chinese and global EV crossovers.

Interior: Premium Comfort, Familiar Layout

Based on the newly released images, the Leapmotor D19 does not radically reinvent cabin design but instead refines a modern Chinese premium formula.
