2026 Leapmotor B05 Ultra review: Quick drive

China’s B05 Ultra gives Leapmotor’s compact electric hatch a warmer rear-drive flagship, but our drive left us with a lot of unanswered questions.

Pros

Ultra-sleek European design
Handles and steers better than expected
High-quality interior fit and finish

Cons

Acceleration not as quick as claimed
Tough competition from other Chinese brands
Australian test required for final verdict

Good

A super-quick taste of the B05 Ultra in China left us wanting more time behind the wheel, but if it can match its acceleration claim and come with a competitive price, it will be a great contender in our market.
