Beijing-based startup Li Auto exclusively offers EREV (range extender) SUVs for sale. There are three models in its model line: L7, L8, and L9. Li Auto does not develop its overseas strategy; instead, it concentrates on the domestic market. Its monthly sales volume in China is approximately 30,000 units. 36,000 units were sold by Li Auto in September 2023. In October, the goal is to break 40,000. By 2025, Li Auto wants to expand its lineup to include 5 BEVs.
The first electric car made by Chinese range extender company Li Auto, named Mega, may go on presale at the Guangzhou Auto Show the following week. December will represent the official launch onto the market, and February will see delivery.
When Denza's general manager uploaded a picture of 20 concept automobiles created by Denza's owner, BYD, the MPV caused a small stir.
The first spy shots of the new Li Auto MPV surfaced in 2021, sparking rumors that the company is working on it. Later, product planning leaked, revealing that Li Auto is working on a new MPV to be released in 2023, as well as an SUV codenamed Shark.
Based on Whale architecture is the Chinese electric MPV. The Qilin ternary (NMC) 5C battery pack from CATL powers the Li Auto MPV. It can also add 600 km to its range in 22 minutes and 400 km in less than 10 minutes thanks to its compatibility for 800V DC rapid charging. Specialized Michelin 245/60 R18 ePrimacy tires are fitted to the electric vehicle.
The starting price of 69,000 USD is appropriate. Expected benefits include priority delivery and a 680 USD optional items fund, same as with L9.
