The Li L8, Li Auto's third vehicle (also called Lixiang L8), replaced the discontinued Li One from September 2022, sharing most of its specification with the smaller five-seat L7 except for dimensions. It uses a range-extender drivetrain with a 1.5-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol generator and permanent-magnet motors making a combined 330 kW (450 PS, 440 hp), with 40.9-52.3 kWh NMC batteries depending on supplier (CATL, Sunwoda or SVOLT). A 2025 update brought a smaller, lower-drag ATL LiDAR unit and new Horizon Robotics or Nvidia Thor-U compute for the ADAS stack. Front-engine, dual-motor, all-wheel drive; wheelbase 3,005 mm (118.3 in), length 5,080 mm (200.0 in), width 1,995 mm (78.5 in), height 1,800 mm (70.9 in), curb weight 2,470-2,530 kg (5,445-5,578 lb).
