Leapmotor C10 ACC Problem Demonstrated Leapmotor C10 Adaptive Cruise Control Is Not Good Enough In this video, I demonstrate the most frustrating issue with the Leapmotor C10 from real-world driving: adaptive cruise control. Rather than just describing the problem, I show you exactly what happens on the road — the constant throttle pulsing, aggressive braking, lack of regen, and uncomfortable behaviour at different speeds, on corners, and in traffic. This isn’t a lab test or a spec-sheet review. This is real UK driving, covering town roads, A-roads, motorways, corners, hills, and stop-start traffic. I also explain why I believe this is a software calibration issue, how it compares to Tesla, VW, Audi and Mercedes systems, and why a simple “dumb cruise control” toggle would solve much of the problem. There is hope though — Leapmotor has an OTA update coming, and cruise control improvements are officially listed. If that update delivers, this could be a completely different driving experience. Despite this issue, 95% of the Leapmotor C10 is genuinely excellent value for money, and I explain why I still rate the car overall. ⏱️ Timestamps 00:00 – The most annoying thing about the Leapmotor C10 00:13 – Cruise control at slow speeds 01:09 – Motorway driving: why it gets worse at higher speeds 02:25 – ACC has no speed buffer (software issue) 02:59 – Following traffic: adaptive cruise control struggles 04:59 – Cruise control slowing aggressively for corners 06:07 – Why this is unacceptable for passengers 06:40 – Missing settings vs Leapmotor T03 comparison 07:21 – OTA update promised: what Leapmotor says will be fixed 08:45 – Camera-only system vs radar-based ACC systems 09:04 – Town driving at 40mph: power surging shown clearly 10:39 – Joining motorway traffic: worst jerkiness yet 12:27 – Heavy regen braking on gentle corners (dangerous?) 13:27 – When cruise control actually works better (uphill) 14:38 – Stop-start traffic: why you shouldn’t use ACC 15:41 – Outro & channel update 15:53 – Bonus: Leapmotor C10 used as a van (boot space demo) 18:22 – Final thoughts: why the C10 is still great value 18:50 – Upcoming videos: range, efficiency & ambient lighting 👍 If this video helped Please consider liking and subscribing for real-world Leapmotor C10 ownership content, honest reviews, OTA update coverage, and practical EV advice. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Get a Heat Pump Quote: https://tech.referrals.octopus.energy... -------------------------------------------------------------------- Sign up to Octopus Energy for a free £50: https://share.octopus.energy/bold-mis... -------------------------------------------------------------------- My videos are made with DJI gear.
