Bright Motor Group has been appointed as the first Leapmotor dealer in Co Dublin by national importer, Gowan Auto.

Leapmotor will take pride of place in two showrooms at Bright Navan Road and Bright Airside, ushering in the brand’s fifth and sixth retail partners since Leapmotor launched in Ireland.

Michael Gaynor, director at Bright Motor Group, said Dublin is “more than ready for an electric future”.

“Bright Motor Group’s commitment to genuine choice and exceptional service aligns perfectly with Leapmotor’s fresh, accessible approach to EVs.

“Together, we invite Dublin motorists to ‘Take The Leap’ and explore Leapmotor’s innovative range of fully electric and REEV vehicles, helping shape the future of mobility across Ireland,” he added.

First deliveries of the Leapmotor T03 compact car (265km WLTP), retailing from €18,995 plus delivery related charges, and the C10 large family SUV (420km WLTP), retailing from €38,995 for the all-electric version or from €45,420 for the REEV (975km Range-Extended Electric Vehicle), are landing at both Bright Navan Road and Bright Airside dealer forecourts this month.

The newly unveiled B10 SUV (434km WLTP), retailing from €32,984 inclusive of grants, will also be available from both showrooms.

Leapmotor, which is part of the Stellantis group, recently announced its six-year/unlimited mileage warranty across the range, together with 261 offers, to include 3.9 per cent APR finance rates.

Gowan Auto said that further dealer franchise appointments are set to be announced in the coming months.
