The cumulative deliveries of Li Auto vehicles reached 684,780 as of the end of February 2024.
“Even with the impact of Chinese New Year and some trims of Li L series models sold out as we prepare for switching to new models, our average daily delivery in February (excluding the eight-day Chinese New Year holiday period) still increased significantly compared with that of February 2023. We are scheduled to officially launch the long-expected Li MEGA and 2024 Li L series models at our spring launch event this afternoon.
