Li Auto has only made four cars in its short history and they've all been rather excellent. The L8 is their third model and sits between the near-identical L7 and L9. As a six-seater, extended range electric vehicle (EREV), and an SUV, its appeal to family-focused Chinese consumers can barely be understated, offering the range of a combustion engined car with the convenience and comfort of an electric car, with the obvious benefits of being eligible for a green number plate in most Chinese cities. But the talents of the Li L8 go far beyond a beautifully refined drivetrain, for it's also an incredible family vehicle offering comfort, tech, and entertainment for everyone.
We put one through our most comprehensive test yet, driving over 3,000km from Shanghai to Xi'an and back, to find out why it's so popular.
