The real question is whether the pressure can force the entire system to operate at a higher level rather than break under it.

More than 20 automakers worldwide have announced plans to develop humanoid robots, including BYD, Xpeng, GAC Group, Chery, Tesla and Hyundai.

The company has built a product lineup spanning four series — A, B, C and D — covering price ranges from 60,000 yuan ($8,888) to 300,000 yuan.

The June figure marked Leapmotor’s third consecutive monthly delivery record, following 71,387 vehicles in April and 81,569 in May.

The company now operates in more than 40 countries and regions, with over 2,000 sales and service outlets globally, including more than 950 overseas.

Leapmotor said the local assembly setup in Gurun will shorten delivery times, reduce supply chain costs, and improve competitiveness while better aligning the model with local demand.

Leapmotor delivered a cumulative 173,658 vehicles in the first five months of the year, still well short of its full-year target of 1 million units set at the start of the year.

However, local authorities attached strict conditions to the sale. The company must also invest at least 2 billion yuan in the project over the next five years.

The company delivered 71,387 vehicles during the month, up 73.9% from a year earlier, marking its highest monthly total on record.
