This milestone was reached in just 47 months since the production of the startup’s first model, the Li ONE, in November 2019, making Li Auto the first Chinese new energy vehicle startup to attain this feat.

Impressively, Li Auto completed the production of its last 100,000 vehicles in just 100 days, demonstrating its robust partnership with suppliers. The company has developed a steadily improving local component supply system and is committed to fostering the growth of the domestic supply chain. Numerous domestic suppliers collaborating with Li Auto have made significant advancements in technology and market share during these partnerships, positioning themselves as industry leaders, said Li Auto.

Since its inception, Li Auto has pursued a strategy of building its own factories, laying a solid foundation for achieving both high volume and high quality simultaneously upon entering the market. Aside from the Li L7, Li Auto's other popular models, such as the Li ONE has seen its cumulative delivery volume reach over 210,000 units, the Li L9 boasts more than 100,000 units delivered. 

In the fourth quarter of this year, Li Auto aims to realize a monthly delivery target of 40,000 vehicles. Moreover, the forthcoming Li MEGA, a family technology flagship, is poised for launch in December.
