The interior of the Leapmotor D99 surprises with its 2+2+3 seat configuration, designed to offer versatility on long trips. The front seats can recline fully to form a bed with the second row, while the second-row seats rotate 180 degrees, creating a mobile lounge with a central table. They also allow a 90-degree rotation to enjoy the scenery. The minivan includes a ceiling screen for entertainment during the journey.
Ceiling screen and seat rotations: the D99's technology 🚀
The Leapmotor D99 integrates a retractable ceiling screen to liven up the journeys, complementing a seat system with electric motorization. The mechanisms allow reclining, rotating, and sliding the seats with precision, adapting to different needs: from rest mode with a flat bed to an office or dining configuration. The central table is extracted from the floor and fixed between the rotating seats. Although the Leapmotor D19 SUV would arrive in Europe for 55,000 euros, the D99 has yet to confirm its arrival on the continent.
Bed, lounge, and lookout: the D99 for never getting out 🛋️
With the D99, Leapmotor solves a classic dilemma: if the trip is long, it's better to sleep; if the scenery is beautiful, it's better to rotate 90 degrees to see it; and if it's time to eat, the table is set up. The only problem is that, with so much rotating and reclining, passengers might end up dizzy before reaching the gas station. At least, the ceiling screen can distract the kids while the adults decide whether it's time for a nap or a chat.
