Li Auto has launched the 2026 Li i6, a five-seat electric SUV, at an unchanged starting price of RMB 249,800. Deliveries are scheduled to begin within a week of the October 28 announcement.
The new model comes standard with Li Auto’s self-developed Mach M100 driver-assistance chip, replacing the Nvidia chip in the 2025 model. It also features the company’s in-house 96 kWh Lianshan 5C battery, up from 87.3 kWh. The rear-wheel-drive version has a CLTC range of 780 km.
Other upgrades include zero-gravity front seats, a hands-free powered front trunk and Adaptive Driving Beam (ADB) headlights. Before the launch, Li Auto livestreamed a teardown of the vehicle to showcase its design and materials.
Customers who purchase the vehicle before the end of November can receive a limited-time RMB 10,000 discount.
