With only three L series, the ideal has dominated the list of new forces for a whole year, and now the fourth model of the L series, L6, is about to come out, and the latest road test spy photos have been **.
2023 has just ended, and Ideal has also announced its annual report card. In the past year, Li Auto delivered 376,030 vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 1822%, in November, the annual delivery target of 300,000 units set at the beginning of the year was completed early, with a completion rate of 125%. As of December 31, 2023, the cumulative delivery volume of Li Auto has exceeded 600,000 units, leading the entire new power car company.
Such a proud achievement also gave Li Xiang, the head of Li Auto, the capital to be crazy on the Internet, and constantly output golden sentences, which caused a lot of controversy. In the face of such a good result, Li Xiang, who is crazy and boundless, also gave the next stage goal, becoming the No. 1 luxury brand in the Chinese market in terms of sales, with a full-year delivery target of 800,000 units in 2024.
To accomplish such a leapfrog goal, even the three L series that have become popular in the circle are afraid that they are powerless. Although these three models were released in 2022 and sold 370,000 units for the year after the brand did not launch a new car, it is obviously unrealistic to conquer the sea of stars by eating their old capital.
Ideal did not sit still, and launched the brand's first pure electric MPV model, the Ideal MEGA, at the end of 2023, which will be launched on March 1, 2023, and three more pure electric models will be launched and delivered in the second half of the year. However, compared with these models, for Volkswagen, the most anticipated is the fourth extended-range model of the L series, the Ideal L6.
In fact, looking at the ideal L series, there is an obvious feature, whether it is L7, L8 or L9, it is essentially the same car, it is nothing more than enlargement or reduction, the number of seats is more and less, the core of the refrigerator color TV The configuration of the large sofa still exists, for family users, you only need to choose according to the number of people and budget, there is no big problem.
It is precisely such a clear product logic that the specific parameters of L6 are also very similar. According to the previous product planning of Ideal, the Ideal L6 will be a 5-seater model positioned as a mid-size SUV, and the price will enter within 300,000 yuan. At the same time, some people said that due to the impact of the new M7, the L6 has also accelerated the listing process, from the previously scheduled June to April release.
Such a statement has a certain degree of reliability, after all, when the new M7 was listed, it only took two months to cut 100,000 large orders, which brought a lot of shock to the entire market. Even the Internet continues to play up the new M7 will really cripple the ideal L7, but the result is that the new M7 has successfully harvested the market, and the ideal L7 has not been affected too much, the two are prosperous together, and only other car companies are injured. Maybe it's because I saw that the new M7 was thriving in the 250,000 yuan market, and if the ideal L6 was not launched as soon as possible, I was afraid that I wouldn't even be able to drink the soup.
Recently, spy photos of the ideal L6 have been on the Internet**. From the ** point of view, the ideal L6 continues to adopt a family-style styling design, with iconic through belts at the front and rear, and the lower surround shape seems to be in the same vein as its predecessors, without much change, and it is still a banner-style blackened grille.
The Li L6 has a horn-shaped lidar roof, which may support the ideal urban NOA, and is flanked by hidden door handles and five-spoke wheels. At the rear, there is also a continuous light strip, a small spoiler and segmented high-mounted brake lights at the top.
In terms of power, the L6 is likely to be consistent with its predecessors and adopt an extended-range hybrid system. For reference, the Ideal L7 is a four-wheel drive scheme with front and rear dual motors, with a maximum system power of 330kW, a peak torque of 620N·m, a CLTC pure electric range of 210km, and a comprehensive range of 1315km.
L6 aims at a market of about 250,000 yuan, and is very likely to be equipped with 1The 5-liter four-cylinder engine acts as a range extender and is equipped with dual front and rear motors. In terms of interior, the L6 is likely to remain the same as the L7, and the difference between the two may be reflected in the interior and trunk space. In terms of intelligent driving and intelligent cockpit, L6 is basically the same as its predecessors, after all, as a model that focuses on family users, comfort configuration is the primary consideration.
Since the ideal L6 is going to the new M7 in the world, many people are also curious about whether L6 has the strength to take the food. First of all,The big problem of the failure of the M7 was that it was too high,The configuration is not enough to top。 After the rework, the new M7 has won a lot of loyal fans by virtue of its intelligent driving ability and the space after the original 7-seater was changed to 5 seats.
However, the dimensions of the new M7 are 5020 1945 1760mm, and the wheelbase is 2820mm, which is slightly smaller than the ideal L7 5050x1995x1750mm and 3005mm wheelbase, which also gives L6 a reference in size. In other words, the L6 is likely to be close to the new M7 in terms of size, while maintaining the consistent family positioning of the L series, and achieving the ultimate in intelligence and comfort configuration.
The new M7 empowered by Huawei technology has stronger intelligent driving capabilities, but the ideal is obviously not vegetarian. At the previous Ideal Intelligent Software Conference, Ideal demonstrated OTA 50 software strength. Not only has the Mind GPT large model language been successfully put on the car, further improving the user's intelligent experience, but also making further progress in high-end intelligent driving capabilities.
At present, the ideal urban NOA has covered 110 cities across the country, and the algorithm model has been re-architected from AD 20 fully upgraded to AD 30。It has been upgraded from a modular algorithm architecture based on multiple small models and artificial rules to an end-to-end algorithm architecture based on large models. ad 3.0 also has the ability to deal with all kinds of complex traffic conditions on a global scale, without setting up navigation, it can rely on the TIN end-to-end signal network to recognize hundreds of different styles of traffic lights, realize the start and stop at the intersection, and go straight through even in complex and long-distance intersections.
Therefore, in terms of soft power, the ideal is not inferior to the new M7, and even the ideal L6 has a late-mover advantage.
It is an indisputable fact that Li Auto will fully embrace pure electric in the future, and the Ideal L6 is likely to become the last extended range model of Ideal, and it is also the model that Ideal has high hopes for the new M7. It is reported that the expected sales of the ideal L6 within the ideal are 20,000 units per month, judging from the sales data of the predecessors, as long as the L6 maintains the level, it is not difficult to achieve this goal. It remains to be seen whether the Ideal L series can successfully fulfill the brand's heavy responsibility in the period of rapid expansion.
