It is the manufacturer’s sixth vehicle and the fourth model in the L-series, following the similar L7, L8 and L9.

Overview

Perspective
On April 18 2024, the fourth, even smaller model in Li Auto's electric range-extender SUV family was revealed under the name Li L6. Compared to the L7, the L6 gains an even shorter body and wheelbase, which makes it the first Li Auto vehicle with a length under 5 m (16.4 ft), distinguished by a more angled rear. The L6 became Li Auto's least expensive product at launch.[2] The vehicle's unveiling was pulled forward from its originally planned launch in June in response to the successful launch of the competing Aito M7.[3] Deliveries began in late April 2024, with higher volumes starting in May.[4]
The L6 uses a double wishbone suspension at the front, and a multilink independent suspension for the rear axle. Unlike other L-series models, it is not available with air suspension, but is equipped with continuous damping control.[5] It has a ride height of 180 mm (7.1 in) and approach and departure angles of 20 and 21 degrees, respectively. It is available with either 20 or 21-inch wheels.[6][7]
The interior features a similar minimalist design to other models in the L-series. The dashboard features a continuous dual 3K-resolution 15.7-inch touchscreen display panel spanning from the center to the passenger side, which serve as the infotainment system and passenger entertainment display, both powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8295P SoC. The instrument cluster is narrow 4.6-inch touchscreen display built into the top of the steering wheel hub, and is supplemented by a 13.3-inch head-up display. The center console features dual 50 W wireless charging pads and two circular cupholders ahead of a split-opening storage area.[4]
The seats are upholstered in Nappa leather, and all have heating and ventilation functions, and the front row has a massaging function. The vehicle also has a tri-zone HVAC system controlled through the infotainment display, a standard 19-speaker sound system, double-glazed windows, and a panoramic sunroof. An 8.8-litre (0.31 cu ft) refrigerator capable of cooling and heating up between −7–50 °C (19–122 °F) is optional.[4] The L6 has 491 litres (17.3 cu ft) of cargo space, or 1,923 litres (67.9 cu ft) with the power-folding rear seats down.[8]
The L6 comes standard with an ADAS system called AD Pro, which has a sensor suite consisting of a mmWave radar, 10 cameras, and 12 ultrasonic sensors and is powered by a Horizon Robotics Journey 5 SoC capable of 128 TOPS of computing power. Higher trims get the AD Max system, which adds a roof-mounted 128-line Hesai LiDAR and an overall higher resolution 11-camera array to the sensor suite, and is powered by two Nvidia Orin X SoCs capable of a combined 508 TOPS.[4] It is capable of supervised autonomous driving in both highway and initially limited urban scenarios, which was later expanded to nationwide coverage in an over-the-air update.[2][8]
2025 update
Li Auto revealed the 2025 update for the L6 at Auto Shanghai 2025. The biggest change is to the ADAS system configurations, with all models now equipped with a new ATL LiDAR unit that is 60% smaller for lower drag and consumes 55% less power than the previous model. The Pro model was upgraded to use a Horizon Robotics Journey 6M SoC capable of 128 TOPS and now has full capabilities, while the Max model now uses a single Nvidia Thor-U chip capable of 700 TOPS. Both are capable of running Li Auto's latest MindVLA ADAS software architecture. Li Auto says that the new system's auto emergency braking feature is capable of successfully braking for stopped traffic in unlit nighttime conditions at speeds up to 120 km/h (75 mph), and the auto emergency steering function can successfully avoid a child walking onto the road at speeds up to 130 km/h (81 mph).[9][10][11][12]
The exterior features a new Celadon Green special edition paint option, and there is a total of four new 20- and 21-inch wheel options. The interior gets a new two-tone dark brown and black upholstery color option.[9][10][13]

Powertrain
Summarize
Perspective
The L6 is available in a single powertrain option, an all-wheel drive electric drivetrain with a petrol range extender engine that is mechanically disconnected from the wheels. The front wheels are powered by a 130 kW (174 hp; 177 PS) motor and the rear axle has a 170 kW (228 hp; 231 PS) motor, for a total of 402 hp (300 kW; 408 PS) and 529 N⋅m (390 lb⋅ft) of torque. Power is supplied by a 36.8 kWh LFP battery pack supplied by CATL, making the L6 the first Li Auto vehicle to use the LFP chemistry. The engine is an all-aluminium turbocharged and direct injected 1.5-litre inline-four cylinder outputting 152 hp (113 kW; 154 PS), with a claimed peak thermal efficiency of 40.5%.[2][4][14]
The L6 has a CLTC range rating of 212 km (132 mi) on battery power only, and a total of 1,390 km (864 mi) when using the range extender engine with the 60-liter (16 U.S. gal) fuel tank. The battery can be recharged from 20–80% in 20 minutes with DC fast charging, or 0–100% in 6 hours on a domestic Level 2 charger. The L6 has a 0–100 km/h (62 mph) acceleration time of 5.4 seconds, and a top speed of 180 km/h (112 mph).[2][4]
