Here’s the latest on Leapmotor and Palmeiras:
Leapmotor has signed a sponsorship with Palmeiras, making the automaker a visible partner for the club in Brazil. The deal was announced in early April 2026 and aligns with Leapmotor’s push to strengthen its presence in South America. This sponsorship includes branding on Palmeiras’ uniforms and other club assets, supporting Leapmotor’s Brazil-market strategy.

The partnership kicked off with Palmeiras’ 2026 Libertadores campaign, highlighting Leapmotor’s debut as an official sponsor during the continental competition. Leapmotor entered the Brazilian market publicly in late 2025, capitalizing on local events like the São Paulo International Motor Show. [Gasgoo summary; Palmeiras/Leapmotor press materials][4][1]
In Brazil, Leapmotor’s local lineup at the time includes models such as the C10 (REEV) and B10, reflecting the brand’s hybrid-electric and smart-vehicle positioning tailored for Brazilian consumers. The C10’s extended-range capability is a notable feature highlighted in Brazilian communications. [Gasgoo article; Palmeiras press release][1][4]
An additional official statement from Leapmotor’s South America leadership frames the partnership as part of a long-term regional strategy, including potential local production, dealer network growth, and expansion of product offerings in Brazil.
