Whenever it comes to the season of "Golden Nine and Silver Ten", automakers are always smiling from ear to ear, after all, this is the golden period of car sales in a year, and the sales performance in these months will probably become the key to the annual sales target of each company. On the "worry" side, the delivery data of LI L9 exceeded 10,000 units, with 11,531 new cars delivered that month.
This can't help but make people feel confused, after all, it has always been overseas car brands monopolizing the Chinese full-size SUV market above 400,000 yuan, when is it the turn of Chinese car brands to play? As a full-size SUV priced at 459,800 yuan, the LI L9 is able to achieve such outstanding results without the silent "cultivation efforts" of the LI car behind the scenes, which includes the leading independent research and development capabilities, the ability to complete the supply chain, as well as the active layout of intelligent manufacturing capabilities and The development of the industry.
About independent research and development, the LI L9 can give an accurate "answer". In order to greatly improve the driving comfort of the family, it adopts self-developed chassis control system, the front and rear suspension combinations are double-wishbone and five-link independent suspension, meeting the two-way needs of family users for handling and comfort, with intelligent air springs and CDC continuous variable damping damper, which can fully improve the driving quality and enhance the handling in high-speed driving. Among them, the intelligent air springs can achieve 80mm range of height adjustment, which can be actively adjusted to improve passability when encountering complex environment, and can also actively lower the body when parking when picking up the elderly or children in the city, providing convenience for family members to get in and out of the car.
In addition, the LI L9 also adopts the fully self-researched XCU central domain controller to achieve millisecond precision control of the vehicle, which includes BMS, BCM, VCU, gateway and other functions. Through integrated design, the transmission link becomes shorter, the wiring harness becomes less, the chip arithmetic power can be reused, and the data communication speed is more than 10 times faster compared to VCU, which can process complex vehicle information at high speed and bring the full capability of the hardware into play.
In terms of intelligent assisted driving, the LI L9 also has the same "madness" for the ultimate, insisting on full-stack self-research and equipped with the flagship AD Max intelligent driving system as standard. Hardware, LI AD Max equipped with two Nvidia Orin-X arithmetic chip, the total arithmetic power of 508 TOPS, dual processor redundancy for each other's arithmetic power, can efficiently process the fusion signal of the sensor, to truly achieve 360 °coverage around the body and the distance, to ensure that the intelligent assisted driving performance is always online.
In terms of range-extended power generation system, the self-research spirit of LI Motors is also worthy of admiration. At the beginning, the Xin Chen company (range extender supplier) with which LI Auto cooperated encountered internal business crisis, but LI Auto did not choose to give up and not only personally participated in the design, experiment and production line of the range extender on the "front line", but also improved the compression ratio of the whole engine, which finally resulted in the highest thermal efficiency of 40.5% for the 1.5T four-cylinder range extender. This last technical parameter has broken the traditional joint venture brand blockade of engine technology.
Based on the excellent performance range extender technology, the flagship range-extended electric system of the LI L9 has just kicked off. It is equipped with front and rear dual-motor intelligent four-wheel drive system, and its abundant power performance gives it the strength of breaking 100 in 5.3 seconds, while its hot engine fuel consumption is as low as 5.9L/100km under CLTC conditions, both of which are incomparably eye-catching compared to full-size SUVs in its class. Of course, as a new energy SUV, its performance strength also includes ultra-long range and practical external discharge capability, with WLTC total range reaching 1100km and external discharge power reaching 3.5kW, which can fully meet the diversified needs of a family for long-distance and camping use.
Another point is also one of the core of the LI L9 gaining market favor, and that is its extreme compression of product profit. All seats are not only wrapped and padded with Nappa leather and 3D comfort foam, but also equipped with electric adjustment and heating as standard, plus the more costly and better quality silent electric suction doors (four doors + tailgate), and double-layer acoustic and thermal insulation glass (front windshield, double panoramic canopy, front two rows of windows), from its unique sense of cabin premium, atmosphere and comfort, no car in the same price range can match.
It is worth mentioning that just as we focus our attention on the fact that the LI L9 has achieved more than 10,000 monthly deliveries, we also overlook the fact that in the domestic full-size SUV market, the monthly sales of the car has been far away from the Mercedes-Benz GLS, BMW X7 and other luxury SUVs, ranking first in sales, which shows the strength of the new generation of Chinese car brands represented by LI. Combined with the previous performance of LI ONE in capturing the luxury mid-size SUV market with its strength, the market achievement of LI is extraordinary, as it not only understands the product power demand of Chinese consumers, but also keeps the leading position in self-research technology and intelligent manufacturing. From many angles, the LI car is not inferior to traditional joint venture car brands, plus it has a very clear market positioning for itself, so the potential and bottom line are not ordinary, is a competent "explosive professional".
