Credit: CnEVPost\n\n\nLi Auto plans to split off some key functions of its product department and merge them into its R&D division.\nLi Auto has carried out multiple organizational adjustments so far this year.\n\n\nLi Auto (NASDAQ: LI) is planning a new round of organizational restructuring to accelerate product decision-making amid fierce competition.\nThe Chinese electric vehicle (EV) maker plans to split off some key functions of its product department and merge them into its R&D division, local media outlet 36Kr reported Thursday, citing several people familiar with the matter.\nThe adjustment mainly targets core product definition teams such as electric vehicles, spatial intelligence, and autonomous driving, and the company has already given verbal notice of the changes, the report said.\n\n\nJoin us on \nTelegram\n or \nGoogle News\n\n\nThe electric vehicle definition team within the product department will be split off and merged into the vehicle R&D division led by Liu Liguo. The autonomous driving end-product team will be merged into the foundation model R&D team led by Zhan Kun.\nAccording to one person familiar with the matter, some experience-related product personnel may also join the product line division led by Liu Jie.\nLi Auto's product department was previously headed by Fan Haoyu, and covered multiple core areas including electric vehicle, spatial intelligence, autonomous driving end products, and interaction design.\nMost of the experiences perceptible to users were once defined by this department.\nAfter the adjustment, the product department will continue to be responsible for businesses such as spatial intelligence and smart glasses, the report said, citing a person close to Li Auto.\nThe core aim of the adjustment is to shorten the product definition process. Under the previous structure, developing a vehicle model had to pass through three departments: product line, product department and R&D division.\nThe report, citing people close to Li Auto's senior management, said the lengthy product decision-making process had long been criticized within the company. Once the adjustment is complete, the number of departments involved in vehicle product decisions will be reduced from three to two: the product line and R&D.\nThe core essence of the adjustment is to return product definition to R&D. Li Auto hopes this will improve the efficiency and quality of product definition.\nLi Auto's decision to set up both a \"product line\" and a \"product department\" stemmed from its comprehensive study of Huawei beginning in 2022. At the time, the company sought to transform from a product company reliant on hit models into one with sound processes.\nSo far this year, Li Auto has carried out multiple organizational adjustments. In January, the company consolidated its R&D teams along lines such as foundation models, software body, and hardware body. In late May, the company added three new second-tier departments related to embodied intelligence within its foundation model division.\nThe backdrop to this series of adjustments is the sales growth pressure Li Auto faces.\nLi Auto delivered 30,895 new vehicles in June, down 14.84% year-on-year. This marked its second consecutive month of year-on-year decline.\nBy comparison, Nio Inc (NYSE: NIO) delivered 40,597 vehicles in June, while Xpeng (NYSE: XPEV) delivered 40,126 units.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNio, Li Auto clash over future of extended-range EVs - CnEVPost\nLi Auto founder said extended-range and battery electric models serve different needs, urging respect for user preferences.\n\n\nNio\nJun 18, 2026","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":false,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"executive","news_rank":0,"isVideo":false,"video":null,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"need_login_tip":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"isLaohu8Offline":false,"tenantId":"TBGLOBAL","deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.44.1","shortVersion":"4.44.1","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/2648571163","isCrawlerRequest":true}
