Li Auto Delays 2026 i6 Launch to Late October, Delivery Still Early November

This is a scheduling decision, not a product one: the delivery window is untouched, so the compressed gap between order and handover looks like an attempt to manage buyer experience rather than a supply or engineering setback. It matters most for buyers already tracking the i6 and for rivals whose own launch calendars sit in the same window, since a later order book can shift early demand. Whether the shorter order-to-delivery gap holds once pre-orders actually open is the open question.
