Looking at the performance from January to April, the Li L7, Li L8, and Li L9 models showed varying degrees of year-on-year declines in deliveries. In contrast, the Li Mega contributed 1.98% of Li Auto’s deliveries during the same period.
To further enhance its product offerings, Li Auto launched updated versions of the Li Mega and the L-series EREVs in April and May, respectively. The updated models are expected to boost sales and cater to changing consumer preferences in the electric vehicle market.
