Li Auto L6 spotted in China as it gets closer to launch
The Li Auto L6 EREV crossover was spotted in China while filming commercial clips. It is the brand's entry-level SUV with an LFP battery and 172 km of electric range. It will enter the market in Apr this year with a price range of 250,000 – 300,000 yuan (34,700 – 41,600 USD).
Li Auto is a young Chinese brand founded in 2015. However, it has already secured a position as one of the bestselling Chinese brands (domestically). In 2023, Li Auto sold over 370,000 cars. Its current model line is represented by the recently launched Mega minivan and three EREV crossovers under the L-series: L7, L8, and L9. The brand's current bestseller is the Li L7, which sold over 130,000 units last year. Li wants to strengthen its sales volume by adding an entry-level SUV to the L-series: the Li L6.
Previously, the Li Auto L6 applied for a sales license in China, revealing its specs. Now, it was seen in China making some commercials for social media and TV. Some of these "spy" shots are of good quality and have good angles, hinting that Li Auto could have staged the leakage.
The spotted Li L6 stays in line with the car disclosed by the Chinese regulator. It is finished in light gray. It also stays in line with other L-series cars. But it has some distinguishing features. Its front bumper has two air intake segments instead of four. Its LED running light strip in the front is also a bit shorter. The L6 has different headlights, door stampings, and a glass line.
The top-rim level of the L6 was spotted in China. We can tell it by the Hesai LiDAR sensor on the roof. According to the regulator fillings, there will also be the L6 without light detection and sensing hardware. The L6 was filmed near the seashore. It is an understandable move since camping retreats have become popular among the young generation of Chinese people.
The Li Auto L6 is also quite heavy, with a curb weight of 2345 kg. Inside, it has five seats. Similar to every other L-series car, it has the L2E15M 1.5-liter turbocharged engine for 113 kW under the hood. This ICE is manufactured by Power Xinchen, which also supplies engines to BMW in China. L6 is the first Li-branded car to adopt the LFP battery. It has a CATL-manufactured pack for 35.8 kWh, which is good for a 172 km electric range.
