Li Auto official announcement,The brand's first pure electric SUVi8 will be officially released in July. At the same time, Ideal also released the first high-definition promotional video for i8. The front part of the i8 continues the closed shape of MEGA, while adding the three-dimensional hood ribs and split headlights of the L series. The rear adopts a through-type LED taillight and a double-layer spoiler design similar to the L9.
Different from traditional SUVs, the i8 is lower and has an obvious slip-back shape on the roof. This is because pure electric vehicles must consider wind resistance, reduce energy consumption as much as possible, and improve battery life..
Since there is no need for an engine, the front of the car can be compressed as much as possible, leaving the maximum space for the passenger compartment. This car is positioned as a three-row, six-seat SUV for families.
As for the interior, you can get a glimpse of it from the enlarged official photo.It continues the family-style design and is equipped with dual screens, AR-HUD head-up display and small-size instrument screen on the steering wheel.
However, the car's seats have undergone very major changes. The shape has changed visually and seems to be wider. At the same time, Nappa leather material is bound to be used to enhance riding comfort.
In other respects, the i8 will be equipped with electronic controls and motors developed by Ideal, which should have more outstanding performance in terms of energy consumption. It will also be equipped with a 5C ultra-fast charging battery as standard, and will be matched with Ideal’s own 5C super charging pile to create an industry-leading energy replenishment experience.
