Li Auto's 6-seat electric flagship i9 tops 10,000 deliveries less than 2 months after launch

Li Auto's (NASDAQ: LI) flagship electric SUV, the Li i9, has surpassed 10,000 cumulative deliveries less than 2 months after its launch.

The Chinese electric vehicle maker announced the milestone on Weibo on Friday, as it expands its battery electric lineup and seeks to revive delivery growth toward year-end.

The Li i9 officially went on sale on September 16, 58 days before the announcement of the delivery milestone.

The company did not provide a monthly delivery breakdown in its announcement. However, according to China Passenger Car Association (CPCA) data compiled by CnEVPost, the Li i9 recorded 5,460 deliveries in October, up from 2,206 in September.

The 6-seat SUV is available only in the Home version, with a uniform nationwide retail price of 369,800 yuan ($55,070) in China, emphasizing more space for families and a home-like cabin experience.

Measuring 5,225 mm long with a wheelbase of 3,168 mm, the Li i9 is Li Auto's largest pure-electric SUV and its second model to offer a Home version, following the Li Mega electric MPV (multi-purpose vehicle).

It comes standard with 4 full-size zero-gravity seats, including power-swiveling second-row seats that allow rear passengers to face each other, reinforcing its focus on family travel.

The Li i9 features a 101-kWh ternary lithium battery with a CLTC range of 705 kilometers (438 miles). It supports 5C supercharging, which the company says can add 500 kilometers of range in 10 minutes.

With the addition of the Li i9, Li Auto's battery electric lineup now comprises the Li Mega, Li i9, Li i8 and Li i6, as the company continues to develop both extended-range and battery electric models.
