On the evening of April 18, Li Auto held a new Li L6 product launch conference.
At the press conference, Li Xiang admitted frankly that before the ideal ONE was introduced to the market, the range extension system they insisted on was not widely recognized by the capital market and the media. Some investors have even made it clear that if the range extender technology is converted to pure electric drive, they will not hesitate to provide financial support for Li Auto.
However, Li Xiang said that I want to build cars for myself and users, not for capital. It said that the extended-range model combines the advantages of traditional fuel vehicles and pure electric vehicles, which can not only solve the pain point of short mileage of electric vehicles, but also reduce users' dependence on charging piles. Therefore, he resolutely chose to continue to cultivate the development route of extended range models.
At the press conference, Li Auto announced that the Ideal L6 model was officially launched, with the price of the Ideal L6 Pro being 249,800 yuan and the Ideal L6 Max being 279,800 yuan.

It is equipped with an electric three-seater sofa, a panoramic canopy, individual air conditioning, a compressor refrigerator, a silent cockpit, and a top-of-the-line audio ......
In terms of range, the ideal L6 CLTC has a comprehensive range of 1390km, and the pure electric CLTC has a range of 212km.
In terms of power, the car is equipped with CDC sports suspension as standard, equipped with a range-extender hybrid system composed of a 1.5T range extender + front and rear dual-motor intelligent four-wheel drive system, of which the 1.5T four-cylinder range extender has a maximum power of 113kW, an acceleration of 5.4s per 100 kilometers, and a WLTC fuel consumption of 6.9L.
