Li Auto ONE I gallery (2019–2022)
The debut model of China's Li Auto is a full-size crossover with an extended-range hybrid powertrain designed for large families seeking long distance electric travel.
The Li ONE marked the debut of Li Auto as a volume vehicle manufacturer, pioneering the range-extender electric vehicle architecture in China. Built on the brand's proprietary initial chassis platform, this mid-to-full size luxury crossover features a 5-door steel unibody construction offered in 6-seater and 7-seater cabin layouts. Its EREV powertrain uses a 1.2-liter 3-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine strictly as an onboard electricity generator without any mechanical connection to the driven wheels. Motive force is supplied by dual permanent magnet synchronous electric motors located on the front and rear axles, delivering a combined output of 326 horsepower and 530 Nm of torque. Power is transmitted through single-speed reduction gearboxes to achieve an intelligent all-wheel-drive system. Energy storage relies on a 40.6 kWh CATL ternary lithium-ion battery pack, delivering an electric-only range of up to 188 km under NEDC testing and a combined range surpassing 890 km. The high-tech interior features a distinctive four-screen front display setup, plush leather seating with massage and ventilation, multi-zone climate control, and a comprehensive ADAS suite. The model targeted premium family vehicle buyers in mainland China before production ended in late 2022 to transition the product line toward the updated L-series SUVs.
