What the Analysts think about Li Auto

Analyst projections of the future price of Li Auto stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Li Auto showed sequential stabilization in Q2: deliveries rose 11.8% quarter over quarter, gross margin improved to 11.0% from 7.9%, and free-cash-flow burn narrowed to RMB1.3 billion from RMB7.4 billion in Q1. (Li Auto Q2 2026 results)
The refreshed product cycle offers multiple potential catalysts: the new L6 launched in July, the Li MEGA was scheduled for September 2, and the flagship Li i9 for mid-September, expanding Li Auto’s BEV and premium-family lineup. (Li Auto August 2026 delivery update)
The balance sheet provides meaningful strategic flexibility: Li Auto held RMB87.5 billion in cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2026, while its charging network had reached 4,097 stations across China. (Li Auto 2026 interim report)
Li Auto remains unprofitable: Q2 2026 revenue fell 15.1% year over year, vehicle margin dropped to 9.4% from 19.4%, and net loss reached RMB1.7 billion. (Li Auto Q2 2026 results)
The near-term growth outlook is modest: Q3 2026 guidance calls for 95,000–100,000 deliveries, broadly flat sequentially, with revenue ranging from a 2.8% decline to only 2.3% growth year over year. (Li Auto Q2 2026 results)
Execution must overcome intense competition and a difficult sales trajectory: first-eight-month 2026 deliveries were down 0.6% year over year, while meeting the company’s roughly 490,000-unit annual target would require average monthly deliveries about 52% above August’s level. (CnEVPost)
