Li Auto Inc. (NASDAQ: LI)
Auto Manufacturers · Beijing, China · Founded 2015
Li Auto is a Chinese EV maker that found a clever niche: extended-range electric vehicles (EREVs) that pair a battery with a small gas generator to eliminate range anxiety. Their SUVs — the L7, L8, and L9 — have been huge sellers in China. They've also launched a pure BEV, the MEGA MPV.
Vehicle sales are the primary revenue source. Li Auto's EREV approach means lower battery costs per vehicle compared to pure EVs, which helps margins. They sell direct to consumers through company-owned retail stores in China.
Founded in 2015 by Li Xiang (also known as William Li... wait, that's NIO — Li Auto's founder is Li Xiang). The company went public on the Nasdaq in 2020. They became the first Chinese EV startup to achieve consistent quarterly profitability, beating NIO and XPeng to that milestone.

Financial data is approximate and based on most recent annual filings.
Li Auto was the first Chinese EV startup to turn a consistent profit. The company's vehicles are essentially family SUVs with built-in entertainment screens for rear passengers — they've been called "living rooms on wheels."
Li Auto proved that pragmatism beats ideology in EVs — range extenders work because they solve a real consumer problem. The pure BEV transition is the next test.
