Core Viewpoint - The automotive industry is witnessing a shift where companies traditionally focused on range-extended vehicles are now venturing into pure electric vehicles, and vice versa [2][5]. Group 1: Industry Trends - Companies like Li Auto have launched their first pure electric SUV, the Li i8, adopting a dual strategy of range extension and pure electric [3]. - More brands that previously did not engage in range extension, such as Avita and Zhiji, are now entering the range-extended vehicle market [6][9]. - Zhiji Auto has introduced its self-developed range extension technology, "Star" Super Range Extender, which will debut in the upcoming Zhiji LS6 and flagship LS9 models [7]. Group 2: Technological Innovations - The "Star" Super Range Extender consists of three main components: a large-capacity fast-charging battery, an energy-efficient range extender, and excellent noise and vibration performance [14]. - The battery, developed in collaboration with CATL, has a capacity of 66 kWh, providing a CLTC pure electric range of 450 km, surpassing the Tesla Model 3's 62.5 kWh battery [16][17]. - The battery architecture is 800V, allowing for a peak charging power of 268 kW, enabling a 310 km range increase in just 15 minutes of charging [19]. Group 3: User Insights and Market Positioning - User research indicated that many buyers of range-extended vehicles are motivated by range anxiety, leading to a demand for larger batteries to reduce charging frequency [26][30]. - The company aims to meet user needs by ensuring a pure electric range of over 400 km, which could satisfy all user demands [34]. - The strategy is to attract users who might have previously avoided electric vehicles due to range anxiety, thereby expanding the market [80]. Group 4: Efficiency and Performance - The range extender, named "Zephyr 1.5T," focuses on efficiency, achieving a fuel consumption of 5.32 L/100 km, marking a significant improvement in the segment [44]. - The system is designed to minimize vibration and noise, with a cabin noise level maintained below 36 decibels during operation [66]. - The low battery discharge capability is enhanced to 275.5 kW, ensuring performance remains robust even at low battery levels [75].

Core Viewpoint - The article addresses the criticisms of the Li Auto i8 model, providing a counter-perspective to potential consumers and highlighting the design choices made by the company to balance various factors such as space, comfort, and aerodynamics [1]. Group 1: Criticisms of i8 - The i8 lacks a front trunk, resulting in insufficient storage space compared to the L90 model, which is seen as a disadvantage for practical use cases [2]. - The internal space of the i8 is perceived as inadequate, particularly in the third row where headroom is limited, despite the i8 being designed for optimal passenger experience [4]. - The i8's rear trunk has less depth compared to the L90, which is attributed to the company's focus on aerodynamics and passenger comfort [5]. - The i8 is considered heavier than the L90, indicating a lower level of lightweight design, which could impact energy efficiency [12]. - The design of the i8 resembles that of an MPV rather than an SUV, aimed at enhancing passenger comfort and reducing drag [13]. Group 2: Responses to Criticisms - The absence of a front trunk in the i8 is a deliberate choice to maximize the internal space for passengers, particularly in the second and third rows, while also minimizing aerodynamic drag [3]. - Although the i8 is shorter than the L90 by 6 cm, it offers more legroom in the third row, demonstrating a trade-off between overall length and passenger comfort [4]. - The i8's design prioritizes aerodynamic efficiency, which affects the height and comfort of the third-row seating, but still aims to provide a satisfactory experience [5]. - The weight of the i8 is a result of its four-wheel-drive system and larger battery, but the focus remains on delivering a better energy consumption performance [12]. - Safety features are emphasized, with the company ensuring that the i8 meets high safety standards despite its shorter front end [14]. Group 3: Technical Specifications and Performance - The i8 has a battery capacity of 97.8 kWh, while the L90 has 85.1 kWh, with the i8 achieving a CLTC range of 720 km compared to the L90's 570 km [8]. - The i8's energy consumption is lower than that of the L90, with a CLTC energy consumption of 13.6 kWh/100 km versus 14.1 kWh/100 km for the L90 [8]. - The i8's electric motor power is rated at 400 kW, which, despite being heavier than the L90, allows for competitive acceleration times [10]. Group 4: Future Considerations - The company is continuously improving its technology and may address current limitations, such as the lack of electric closing for the refrigerator, in future models [17].

Group 1: Investor Relations Activities - The company conducted an online communication event on June 9, 2025, with various investment firms participating [3][4]. Group 2: Autonomous Driving Technology - The company focuses on self-developed autonomous driving models with a line control chassis, emphasizing that the technology will be tailored to specific mining needs rather than standardized products [5]. - The market for autonomous mining trucks is expected to grow significantly as charging and battery swap facilities are rapidly established, transitioning from policy-driven to market-driven demand [5]. Group 3: Cost and Pricing Dynamics - The cost difference between autonomous and conventional mining trucks is minimal, primarily influenced by the disparity between electric and fuel vehicle costs, with electric products priced approximately twice that of fuel vehicles [6]. - The deployment of range-extended vehicles is currently more prevalent, but the potential for pure electric solutions is expected to increase as charging infrastructure improves [7]. Group 4: International Market Outlook - The global market for autonomous mining trucks is primarily concentrated in Australia, with China surpassing Australia in ownership last year; however, market expansion is slow due to regulatory requirements and specific client needs [7]. - The company aims to expand its presence in overseas markets, including Mongolia, Central Asia, Southeast Asia, and South America, where significant opportunities exist [7].

Group 1 - Li Auto has adjusted its annual sales target from 700,000 units to 640,000 units, indicating a shift in strategy amid increasing competition in the Chinese electric vehicle market [2][4] - The company plans to reduce the production target for its range-extended L series from at least 560,000 units to 520,000 units, while significantly increasing the target for pure electric products from 50,000 units to 120,000 units [4] - The adjustment reflects a strategic response to the competitive landscape, as Li Auto's sales performance has been impacted by traditional automakers and new entrants focusing on plug-in hybrid and range-extended products [4][5] Group 2 - In the first four months of the year, Li Auto delivered 126,803 units, a year-on-year increase of only 19.41%, the lowest among its peers [7][8] - The company must deliver over 70,000 units monthly for the remainder of the year to meet the original target, which is considered nearly impossible, prompting the downward adjustment [8] - Li Auto's proactive strategy includes enhancing its pure electric vehicle lineup and restructuring its sales and service teams to better address market challenges [10][12] Group 3 - The shift towards range-extended and pure electric vehicles has become a consensus in the industry, with competitors like Zeekr and Xpeng also planning to launch range-extended models [5] - Li Auto's internal adjustments and strategic focus on pure electric vehicles indicate a significant shift in its operational priorities, aiming to balance its product offerings in a rapidly evolving market [10][12] - The company is also expanding its infrastructure, planning to increase its supercharging stations to 4,000 and its retail outlets to over 800, targeting lower-tier cities [10][12]
