2026: Automakers Enter Smart Glasses Market as Li Auto Launches Livis

Smart glasses are surging in popularity in 2025, with automakers rushing into the space. Li Auto’s newly launched AI glasses, Livis, have become a focal point—not only praised for their lightweight design and long battery life but also sparking widespread discussion about the interaction logic between vehicle systems and smart glasses. A key question driving the debate: when a user issues the voice command “Li Xiang Tong Xue” (Li Auto’s voice assistant), how does the system determine whether to respond via the glasses or the car itself? Could conflicts arise between the two? This issue has become central to the ongoing conversation. As 2026 approaches, automakers are accelerating their push into smart hardware, exploring new pathways to deeply integrate vehicles with wearable devices.
