This morning, Li Auto officially released the Li L9 Pro. The car is priced at CNY 429,800 ($60,200) and will be delivered to buyers within August. Compared to the Li L9 Max, the pricing has a significant gap, and the features are almost the same.
The Li L9 Pro is priced at CNY 30,000 ($4,200), which is lower than the L9 Max. It also comes with a new driver assistance system (AD Pro Intelligent Driving System) and is powered by the new Journey 5 chipset.
It is worth mentioning that the L9 Max is equipped with the AD Max intelligent driving system, LiDAR, and two NVIDIA Orin-X processors, with a total computing power of 508 TOPS.
In other aspects, the Li L9 Pro has the same interior (including the display, refrigerator, and seats) as the Li L9 Max. Overall, the difference between the two cars is similar to the difference between the Li L7 and Li L8. The main difference is the driver assistance features.
The lidar has been removed. But the internal features remain the same, retaining components such as a 13.35-inch head-up screen and a 15.7-inch OLED central control screen.
In addition, the new car retains 100 flagship configurations, including passenger entertainment screens, rear entertainment screens, 4D vibrations for second-row seats, a Dolby Atmos sound system, refrigerated and insulated refrigerators, electric vacuum doors and induction tailgates.
The Li L9 Pro is still powered by the same 1.5T engine, which produces 130 kW on the front drive motor and 200 kW on the rear drive motor. It can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 5.3 seconds.
The battery capacity is 44.5 kWh, while the fuel tank capacity is 65L. If driven on pure electric, the cruising range is 215 km. However, in comprehensive mode (combining fuel and battery), the cruising range can reach 1,315km.
