Leapmotor filed for a Hong Kong IPO last month and submitted its first version of a prospectus.

The prospectus did not disclose the number of shares Leapmotor hoped to issue or the amount of money it planned to raise. Last October, Bloomberg said the company's Hong Kong listing could raise at least $1 billion.

Leapmotor said in its prospectus that the company is focused on the mid- to high-end mainstream new energy vehicle (NEV) market in the RMB150,000 ($23,637) to RMB300,000 range.

This means that the company may add more high-end models to its portfolio in the future, as its main selling model, the T03, currently has a price range of RMB 68,900 - 84,900 and the C11 is RMB 159,800 - 199,800.
