Over the past decade, Leapmotor has survived among hundreds of new energy vehicle (NEV) startups and risen to become the sales leader, thanks to its relentless, engineering-driven technical focus and extreme cost discipline. Zhu Jiangming candidly stated that the company has just passed its breakeven point and emphasized, “The window of opportunity is only a few years long,” necessitating an all-out sprint.

💡 Industry Impact: A Survival Blueprint Amid Intensifying Competition

As competition in the new energy vehicle sector reaches a fever pitch, Leapmotor demonstrates the viability of a “grind-it-out + long-termism” approach through scalable profitability and overseas expansion, offering a proven model for second-tier NEV players seeking breakthroughs.
