Performance, power and 0-100 km/h
Both cars record the same 0-100 km/h time of 5.3 seconds. Their listed outputs are also identical at 449 hp. Both specifications list 620 Nm of torque. These figures describe straight-line potential only; they do not establish braking performance, ride quality, steering response or durability under repeated hard use.
Range, battery, charging and efficiency
2025 Li Auto L9 Max carries the longer listed range at 180 km, against 175 km for 2025 Li Auto L7 Max. 2025 Li Auto L9 Max has the lower recorded consumption at 7.2 L/100km; 2025 Li Auto L7 Max is listed at 7.4 L/100km. Test cycle, temperature, wheel size and charging conditions can materially affect these results, so only figures measured on the same basis should be treated as directly comparable.
Dimensions, cargo space and towing
2025 Li Auto L9 Max provides the larger quoted cargo volume: 727 litres versus 606 litres, a difference of 121 litres. Their listed towing capacities are equal at 2,000 kg. 2025 Li Auto L9 Max is 168 mm longer overall. Exterior size is not a benefit by itself: a longer body may create useful room, but cargo shape, rear-seat space and ease of parking still require a physical inspection.
