Li Auto officially launched the 2026 Li i6, a five-seat SUV, on October 28, 2026. The standard configuration is priced at RMB249,800, and deliveries are to commence within a week.

Li Auto describes itself as a leader in China's new energy vehicle market, with volume production since November 2019. Its lineup spans Li L extended-range SUVs, Li i battery-electric SUVs and the Li Mega multi-purpose vehicle.

The launch event on October 28 was followed immediately by test drives and orders, with deliveries expected in early November. The i6 had already been on display at 485 stores in China from October 11, and was shown at the Paris Motor Show on October 12 as the Li 6.

The price, the launch date and the delivery window come from the company's own announcement, while the event timing, the store display and the Paris showing are corroborated by CnEVPost's earlier preview of the launch.

The i6 gives Li Auto a five-seat battery-electric SUV alongside its extended-range L series and the Mega MPV, broadening a lineup that has so far leaned on extended-range models.
