Li Auto Mega: range, price, specs and where it is sold
Facts checked
The Mega is Li Auto's first battery-electric vehicle, a large MPV introduced at Auto Guangzhou in November 2023 and produced from 2024. Until it arrived the company sold only extended-range cars, so the Mega marks the start of a separate battery-electric line that later took the i-series naming.
It is 5,350 mm long on a 3,300 mm wheelbase and carries a 102.7 kWh CATL Qilin NMC pack rated at 710 km on the CLTC cycle, driven by 400 kW of dual motors. Its 800-volt architecture supports 5C fast charging, and Li Auto quotes a drag coefficient of 0.215, which it describes as the lowest of any production MPV.
A Mega Home version entered production on 20 May 2025 at 529,800 CNY, adding second-row seats that swivel through 180 degrees to face rearward. Li Auto reported 10,798 Mega deliveries in China in 2024 and 19,112 in 2025. The car is sold only in China.

A Chinese sticker price is not what the same car costs abroad: tariffs, specification and local taxes all differ. The price translator converts it at a stored rate and says so.

No NCAP result is recorded for the Mega. That means no published result was found on a testing body's own site — not that the car was tested and failed, and not that it was never tested.
