Elon Musk was right, if Chinese car companies were allowed to compete here in North America, they would destroy every single car company here. The amount of new cars that the Chinese are popping out each month is absolutely mind blowing, and all of these cars have extremely competitive pricing.

[@kaijunjiang9763]

However Tesla is the most aspired EV in China. 3s and Ys are everywhere.

[@brian.z6592]

​@@kaijunjiang9763 For the CNY200K range market, yes. For the pricier and more luxury market, Tesla has a near zero market share.

Omg I love this thing! It’s like a Cybertruck and a Chevy Lumina MPV had a baby! I wish vans were still a thing in the US because they are vastly superior for passenger and cargo carrying than the SUVs we are so obsessed with.

[@jimcabezola3051]

I'm really loving this thing too. So cool.

[@niklaswejedal463]

Me too! This is actually the way I imagined future mpv:s to look like when I was a teenager in the late 80:ies. I did however think it would happen a bit sooner, but still - cool that it finally did.

Are you kidding, according to Gina Raimondo, this thing will be sucking up huge amounts of intelligence info from the kids in the back seat and sending it all to Beijing.

[@tren133]

Vans are pretty dead in the US. However... Li Auto got to where they are by building luxury SUVs. Their current products like the L8, which is a large 3 row electric luxury with 100 miles of pure electric range for in town use, and 500 plus miles of range on road trips if you use gas. Now THAT would sell like hotcakes in the US.

[@rebym]

Good review number 31. I think it looks really good and I don't find it as polarizing as you suggest. It just looks a bit more modern than typical MPVs. What I do notice is that it's yet another indication of just how far ahead of the rest of the world the Chinese auto sector is. It's becoming ridiculous, by comparison in North American it's like the dark ages.

[@UhOhUmm]

Is it really. When it comes to cars reliability and durability matters where Chinese brands do not excel so far and this electronics stuffed machine doesn't exactly inspire confidence. Sure it looks good when brand new and cherry picked for the review.

[@Emilthehun]

I love the looks of this thing. Futuristic and old school at the same time. This would look awesome next to a cybertruck on the driveway.

[@maximilianvonhulewicz9047]

You guys killed it with this review - I'm in tears 😂

[@GTI_CHHA]

'Robocop picking up his children from soccer practice..' brilliant and accurate description. LOL

[@natebaird]

This is a super sleek camper van candidate. It's giving me Prius vibes and looks like it'd be easy to drive, park, and blend in with. Bring it to America Li Auto!

[@PaulHo]

2:57 lining up those taillights is so satisfying, even though I'm very over full-width light pipes and floating roof motifs.

[@tomsbeingtheleo]

I LOVE this! I'm a very big minivan enthusiast, and its design although also besides the frontlights, reminiscent of the amazing Staria cannot not remind me of the OG Rénault Éspace, for which I LOVE the three gens! It is SO peculiar!

[@JC94]

Your presenting is brilliant mate, hilarious digs here and there are spot on 🤣 keep up the good work. This channel gonna be huge one day

[@Thinkofwhat]

I was just thinking about the first Robocop movie. This van would fit in perfectly. Reckon officer Murphy would approved:)

[@user-jh6vt8vx4v]

He can bring his support equipment along and say good bye to the snapon van.

[@k0walsk]

2:30 I feel it looks like none of those things. It's just really really simple and clean. And that's fine, if unimaginitve. The lights are just straight. Neutral interms of their expression. Take a look at Arrical, Canoo, Lightyear, all of them use this style. It's just what's trendy at the moment. What is interesting about this design is how far down the roof slopes towards the back. That gives it quite a unique proprtion which I find really cool.

[@niklaswejedal463]

I absolutely love the way this MPV looks - the fewer lines you need to describe the shape of a vehicle, the purer the design is. I so wish they bring it to the EU/Sweden, so I may enjoy seeing these to break up the monotony of all these pointless SUVs (that only are big on the outside...)

[@clanOT]

Love the review, best so far!

[@N-SOJU]

Brilliant, love the review.. China auto makers are certainly exploring it's boundary with their designs..

[@LifeAfterLosing]

It’s a beautiful van and I can see them being able to get the price way down by removing a lot of the features and still keeping it very well equipped.

[@autolitics]

beautiful design for a utilitarian vehicle. Sleek, modern, original, efficient. Also, pricey. Perhaps not perfect, but an impressive package. I'm sure they'll sell a ton.

[@jolicercholly179]

Unfortunately, it’s competitors in china claim that it looks like a coffin. They hired internet influencers to make it looks bad. It doesn’t sell well now😢

I saw one in Shanghai on a test drive at the weekend. looks interesting and ne great detail is the speedo on the steering wheel. anyway, having tried the X9 and given it is a third cheaper I guess that is better value

[@GadgetyMV]

The robotic face looks fab; far better than most all garish and over elaborated front end designs so common today. You showed the Yangwang U8 pebble like car key recently, saying it had inspired that car's design. It'd be much more fitting to Li Auto MEGA.

I had a Renault Espace III JE from 2002 as my 1st and last car. The Mega would be a worthy successor :) I´d remove all seats behind the 2 front ones and put my bicycle and E-Scooter in the trunk.
