If a model can't get approval, we tell you straight away.

Li Auto i9 buyer questions

How much does the Li Auto i9 cost in China, and what would it cost me?

The Li Auto i9 launched on 2026-09-16 at RMB 369,800 for the single Home version (CnEVPost, 2026-09-16). That is not an export price: shipping, export formalities, duty and taxes come on top. CRAVEUO EV Export gives a written quote per order.

What is the range of the Li Auto i9?

The i9 lists 705 km on the CLTC test cycle with a 101 kWh battery (CnEVPost, 2026-09-16). Real-world range is usually lower than test-cycle figures, especially at motorway speed and in cold weather.

Can I import the Li Auto i9 into my country?

It depends on your country's import and registration rules (drive side, age, type approval) and on supply. Export availability depends on the brand's authorised exporters — ask us to check before you plan a purchase. The China-market i9 is left-hand drive. Send us your country and we will check; we cannot promise availability.

Does a China-spec Li Auto i9 come with a warranty abroad?

Warranty terms depend on the sales contract and on the exporting company. The brand's own warranty may not apply outside China, and CRAVEUO EV Export is not an authorised dealer of Li Auto. We state the warranty position in writing before you sign, so ask before you order.

Which charger does a China-spec Li Auto i9 use?

Li Auto says 10 minutes of charging adds 500 km of range, on its own 5C chargers (CnEVPost, 2026-09-16). China-market cars use GB/T sockets for AC and DC; many other markets use Type 2 (AC) and CCS2 (DC), so an adapter may be needed (Akyga, 2025-08-27). Ask us which version you would receive.

Can I import the Li Auto i9 into Nigeria?

Yes. Nigeria registers left-hand-drive cars, and the Li Auto i9 can be exported there through a licensed Chinese exporter. Duty, taxes and the papers you need are on our Nigeria page.

How long does shipping the Li Auto i9 to Nigeria take?

About 35–50 days by RoRo ship from a Chinese port, plus a few days for customs clearance.

Can I import the Li Auto i9 into Ghana?
