Official images of Li i8, the family's first 6-seat pure electric SUV, unveiled to take on Model X

A few days ago, LI AUTO officially released the official drawings of its Li auto i8 model, the new car is positioned as a pure electric six-seat SUV, targeting the Tesla Model X. However, unlike the Model X, which is oriented towards performance, the Ideal i8 is more oriented towards home comfort.

From the official drawings, the new car's front face adopts a design language similar to that of the LI MEGA, with a closed grille design in a relatively simple style, and penetrating daytime running lights located at the bottom of the front windshield, which effectively stretches the horizontal visual width of the front face. The shape of the front end has obvious changes compared to the LI MEGA, in line with the identity of the pure electric SUV.

The grille has vertical deflector slots on both sides of the wings to improve aerodynamic performance, with smoked high and low beams, and polygonal air intakes at the bottom, giving the overall visual effect a more rounded appearance. The roof is also equipped with LiDAR, meaning the new car supports high-level assisted driving.

Side modeling, the overall lines are not as hard as Li auto L series, the roof and the ideal MEGA the same small sliding back shape, two-tone body also creates a floating roof, D column part of the adjustment also makes the visual effect appears not so abrupt; waistline is segmented design, embellished with a sense of hierarchy on the side of the body; the door handles have a pop-up design, which can play a role in reducing wind resistance; wheel brows and side skirts are partially designed with a bulging rib line to highlight the sense of muscle; wheels are smoked low wind resistance modeling style is quite atmospheric; air suspension should not be missing; wheels are smoked low wind resistance modeling style is also atmospheric. Wind resistance; wheel brows and side skirt part of the design has a bulging rib line, highlighting the sense of muscle; wheels are smoked black low wind resistance modelling, style is quite atmospheric, air suspension should not be absent.

Tail styling, the roof is equipped with a small spoiler and high brake lights, smoked tail light group shape is relatively flat, using a through design, effectively stretching the rear of the car lateral visual width; licence plate frame area adopts a concave design, embellished with a sense of hierarchy at the rear of the car; the lower part of the enclosure is equipped with three-dimensional sense of the black panel, both sides integrated with a small fog lamps.
