LI stock is in range with Nio Rival fully embracing electric vehicles

Chinese auto start Lee Otto (L.I) unveiled its all-electric strategy at the Shanghai Auto Show on Tuesday. LI stock broke out on the Monday before the event. But China EV shares fell broadly on Tuesday, the first day of the auto show.

The new strategy will enable the first all-electric Li cars to get 400 kilometers (about 250 miles) of range on a 10-minute charge, CnEV He said. The report said all-electric vehicles, also known as battery electric vehicles or BEVs, will feature an 800-volt EV platform and CATL’s new cutting-edge “Qilin” battery.

More details are yet to come.

By 2025, Li’s product lineup will include a “super flagship model”, five plug-in hybrid electric cars, and five BEVs, it was reported.

Lee, the maker of premium electric vehicles, recently reported a market share of nearly 20% from CNY300,000 (roughly $44,000) to CNY500,000 in the SUV market. He has been outperforming his startup peers New (nio) And XPeng (XPEV).

All three startups are emerging competition for Tesla (TSLA) And BYD (BYDDF) in China, the largest car market in the world.

Until now, Li has specialized in a type of hybrid electric vehicle, which uses a gasoline-powered internal combustion engine to charge the battery. These vehicles (including their current models for sale, the L7, L8, and L9) are called “EREVs” for extended-range electric vehicles. They are proving very successful in China, where demand for charging stations outstrips supply, especially in less urban areas.

Going forward, Lee said it plans a “dual energy strategy,” which means it will continue to make EREVs while converting to BEVs.
