The official pure electric range of the Li ONE is 180 kilometers according to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. Introduction to the Li ONE models: The Li ONE is available in two models: the Li ONE 2020 Extended Range Six-Seater Edition and the Li ONE 2020 Extended Range Seven-Seater Edition. The only difference between the two models is the seating configuration, with all other aspects being identical. Body dimensions of the Li ONE: The body length is 5020 mm, width is 1960 mm, height is 1760 mm, and the wheelbase is 2935 mm. The vehicle is a five-door, six or seven-seater SUV with a fuel tank capacity of 45 liters and a curb weight of 2300 kg.

The NIO ONE offers quite flexible range. For city commuting in pure electric mode, it can run about 170 km, meaning charging twice a week is generally enough for work commutes. For long-distance trips, switching to range-extender mode allows an easy 700 km range with full charge and fuel. Last time I drove from Beijing to Shenyang, I only needed to refuel once midway, with over 100 km range still showing. However, using the heater in winter reduces range by about 20% in real-world tests, so it's advisable to fill up before long trips in cold weather. With a 45L fuel tank, it can run 500-600 km on gas alone, and combined with charging, range anxiety is basically a thing of the past.

As an experienced owner of the Li ONE, let me share some practical insights: The official claimed range of 800 km is slightly optimistic, but achieving 700+ km under normal driving conditions is absolutely feasible. Your driving style plays a crucial role – gentle driving can match the displayed range, while aggressive acceleration might deplete the at around 550 km. Last month, during a family trip with the AC on and five passengers onboard, we managed 653 km on a full tank and charge. For daily commutes with convenient charging access, the 40.5 kWh battery provides a pure electric range of about 170-180 km, which is quite economical. When relying on fuel, consumption is around 7 liters per 100 km, translating to over 600 km per full tank.

Real-world test after just 20,000 km: Pure electric range varies by season - 150 km with AC in summer, up to 180 km without climate control in spring/autumn. activation brings the most stable performance, with combined range typically between 680-750 km. Important note: Avoid exceeding 120 km/h on highways - higher speeds significantly increase fuel consumption. Once pushed to 140 km/h in a hurry, the range immediately dropped below 600 km. City expressways are most efficient - hybrid mode consumes just over 5L/100km. For long trips, maintain an economical 100 km/h cruising speed to achieve range closest to official figures.

Discussing range performance from three dimensions: 1) In pure electric mode, actual tests in spring and autumn showed 189 kilometers (without using air conditioning), which dropped to just over 140 kilometers in winter when heating was on; 2) In fuel priority mode, highway driving consumes 8.2L per 100 kilometers, with a 45L fuel tank allowing a range of 550 kilometers; 3) The hybrid mode is the most practical, as the system automatically switches between fuel and electricity, easily achieving a combined range of over 700 kilometers. On a previous trip from Hangzhou to Wuhan covering 760 kilometers, the display showed 90 kilometers of remaining range when refueling midway. It's advisable to keep a 20% reserve, enabling pure electric driving in traffic jams without consuming fuel.

After two years of driving the Li ONE, I've learned to view its range dynamically: In the city as an electric vehicle, the 40 kWh realistically delivers 160-180 km, which is more practical than the official 172 km. On long trips as a hybrid, actual fuel consumption measures 7.6L/100km, with a full tank extending the range to 590 km. Key point about the range extender logic: When battery level drops below 17%, the range extender automatically activates, charging while driving until 80% before switching back to pure electric mode. This approach practically extends the combined range beyond 800 km – my personal record shows 819 km on the odometer. Charging tip: Use fast chargers to replenish 80% in just 30 minutes, saving more time than refueling.
