I Drove the Leapmotor B10 for 3 Months: Here Are 5 Cheap Upgrades I Can’t Live Without

Living with the new Leapmotor B10? Here is an honest review of the top 5 interior and exterior accessories that solve its biggest factory design flaws.

The B10 Is Great, But It’s Not Perfect

When the Leapmotor B10 first landed on the market, it instantly caught my attention. It’s snappy, compact enough for chaotic city parking, and surprisingly spacious inside. But if you’ve actually spent more than a week driving one, you already know the honeymoon phase comes with a few small, annoying reality checks.

That massive open space under the floating center console? It turns into a chaotic black hole for keys and charging cables within three days. Those sleek, flush door handles? Scratched up by rings and fingernails before your second car wash.

After testing dozens of modifications on our own team’s B10, we put together a list of practical, custom-fit upgrades that fix these exact daily annoyances—without breaking the bank.

1. Stopping the "Center Console Chaos"

The hollow area beneath the central console is a great architectural idea on paper. In reality? Every time you take a sharp turn, your phone, sunglasses, and garage clicker go sliding into the passenger footwell.

To fix this, we designed the [Double-Layer Storage Box under Center Console] . Instead of one deep, cluttered bin, it creates two distinct levels. We put everyday items like toll cards and cables on the upper sliding tray, while leaving the bottom section free for tissue boxes or larger items. It snaps right into place with zero tools, and honestly, this is how the B10 should have come from the factory.

For smaller daily gear, pairing it with a [Premium Armrest Storage Box] keeps your credit cards and NFC key safe from getting lost under coffee cups.

2. Protecting Your Flush Door Handles

The concealed door handles on the B10 look incredible and help with aerodynamics. However, because you have to press and pull them constantly, the surrounding paint and trim take a beating from rings, watch buckles, and long fingernails.

We noticed hairline scratches on our test vehicle after just two weeks of groceries and school runs. Installing a set of [Exterior Door Handle Protection Strips] took us less than 10 minutes. They match the original trim so well that most people won't even notice they're there, but they take all the daily impact so your paint stays flawless.

3. The "Rainy Day" Carpet Nightmare

If you live somewhere with heavy rain, snow, or even just dirt roads, the factory cloth floor mats in the B10 are a disaster waiting to happen. Moisture sinks right through them, leading to damp smells that are impossible to get out of an electric car's cabin.

We swapped ours out for a set of custom [Floor Mats & Trunk Mats for Leapmotor B10] made from high-density TPE. Unlike cheap rubber mats, these have zero chemical odor out of the box. The raised 3D edges trap water and sand perfectly—when they get dirty, you just pull them out, hose them off, and pop them back in.

Keeping Your Key Card Safe

Leapmotor’s NFC key card is super convenient to carry in a wallet, but it’s surprisingly flimsy. Drop it on asphalt once, and the plastic edges start to chip. We recommend grabbing a slim [NFC Proximity Card Key Cover]. It adds virtually no bulk, fits comfortably on a keychain, and stops the card from bending in your back pocket.

Final Thoughts: Small Upgrades, Massive Difference

You don't need to spend thousands of dollars to customize your EV. The best accessories are the ones you stop noticing because they simply make your daily drive smoother and keep your car looking brand new.
