2 Answers
Compared to the old model, the new Li Xiang ONE has seen significant improvements in various aspects. Here are the detailed comparisons: Exterior Comparison: The overall appearance of the new model hasn't changed much compared to the old one, still looking quite steady. The continuous daytime running lights remain highly recognizable. The Li Xiang ONE features full LED lighting, with the old model's daytime running lights also serving as turn signals. The 2021 new model adds cornering lights and turn signals on both sides of the lower bumper. The continuous 'Starlight Headlight' has been further upgraded, offering more uniform illumination and a finer visual effect. Additionally, there are subtle changes to the grille, with increased mesh size, making it look more minimalist and fresh. Interior Comparison: The interior maintains a minimalist style, with the design of four large screens unchanged. However, the new model comes with a brand-new voice recognition system. The leather-wrapped steering wheel supports manual four-way adjustment and includes a heating function. The feel is more refined, and the padding is softer. The multifunction buttons have changed from the previous circular shape to a glossy black design. The driving assistance system and multimedia can be controlled via the lever and roller.
As an owner of the Li ONE, I noticed significant differences between the new and old models after driving both. For daily family trips, the space is the same, but the new model's battery range has improved considerably, with pure electric mileage increasing from around 180km to 188km, reducing the need for charging stops on long trips. The seats now feature ventilation, eliminating summer discomfort; upgraded interior materials are softer, making hard seats less of a concern even with kids playing in the back. The optimized suspension provides a smoother ride over speed bumps. The intelligent system is much more responsive—navigation in the old model sometimes lagged, while the new one runs smoothly. Fuel consumption has slightly decreased by about 6% to 8%, saving some money on gas. Noise reduction is improved, with the range extender's noise almost inaudible on highways, unlike the old model's humming. The price is similar, but the new model offers comprehensive upgrades.
