Leapmotor is primarily owned by its founder group led by Zhu Jiangming and Fu Liquan, with Stellantis Holdings NV (the European automaker behind Stellantis) becoming the largest external shareholder after a 2023 investment. The founder group, often referred to as Zhu and his concert party, continues to hold a sizable stake and remains the controller of the company, even as Stellantis increases its stake.
- Key points:
- Stellantis invested €1.5 billion in 2023 to acquire about 20% of Leapmotor, making it the largest external shareholder and giving Stellantis two board seats.
- The founder group’s combined stake has been reported around the low-to-mid 20% range, maintaining control despite external investment.
- There have been ongoing share purchases by Zhu Jiangming and associates in 2024–2025, further concentrating ownership within the founder group while Stellantis holds a substantial minority stake.
