LEPAS BRINGS NEW L6 EV TO FLEET AND MOBILITY LIVE AS FLEET REGISTRATIONS GAIN MOMENTUM
- Fully electric L6 EV will make its first static appearance at a fleet event
- L8 plug-in hybrid joins the display at the NEC on 6–7 October
- Event follows strong start for LEPAS fleet team
The new 100% electric LEPAS L6 EV will make its UK industry debut at Fleet and Mobility Live this week.
The event, at Birmingham’s NEC on 6–7 October, will give fleet managers and leasing companies an early opportunity to explore the next model in LEPAS’s UK line-up, weeks ahead of its UK launch.
It will appear alongside the brand’s first model – the L8 PHEV – which is already winning fleet industry admirers with its combination of elegant styling, array of technology and highly efficient all-round performance.
Tim Whitworth, National Leasing Manager at LEPAS UK, said: “We’ve made a really strong start as a team. It shows that businesses and drivers are already seeing the appeal of the L8 and considering LEPAS for their next car.
“Fleet and Mobility Live gives us the opportunity to build on that momentum. Visitors can explore the L8 and, for the first time at a fleet event, see our new, fully electric L6 EV.
“Elegance is central to LEPAS, from the design of our cars to the experience behind the wheel. For fleet customers, that also means vehicles that are comfortable, easy to live with and suited to the demands of a working week. We look forward to showing visitors what that means in practice.”
The L8 PHEV is available in Essence and Elevate trims, priced from £34,900 and £37,900 on the road respectively. Its LEPAS Super Hybrid powertrain combines a 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine with an electric motor and an 18.4kWh battery, delivering up to 56 miles of electric-only driving and a combined range of up to 745 miles under WLTP testing.
Built around comfort and everyday practicality, the L8 offers a spacious five-seat cabin and a 2,800mm wheelbase. Intelligent voice control and a comprehensive suite of driver assistance systems are standard, while Elevate adds heated, ventilated and massage front seats, a 540° panoramic camera and advanced and remote parking assistance.
The L6 EV pairs a 65kWh lithium iron phosphate battery with a 160kW (217PS) electric motor, delivering 275Nm of torque and 0–62mph in 7.9 seconds, offering up to 279 miles of range under WLTP testing.
On-board technology includes a 13.2-inch central touchscreen, an 8.88-inch digital driver display and the “Hello LEPAS” AI-powered voice assistant. Both trims feature 50W wireless smartphone charging, a 540° panoramic camera and 22 driver assistance functions. Elevate adds SONY eight-speaker audio, heated and ventilated power-adjustable front seats, and advanced and remote parking assistance.
Tim Whitworth and the LEPAS UK fleet team will be at Fleet and Mobility Live throughout 6–7 October to meet customers, introduce the L8 PHEV and L6 EV, and discuss opportunities with fleet operators, leasing companies and business drivers.
