Li Auto Unveils Next-Gen Flagship Smart Cockpit with Snapdragon 8797 Elite and 90Hz Panoramic Display

On June 15, Li Auto unveiled its next-generation flagship intelligent cockpit at the LivisDay Software and Embodied Intelligence Launch Event. Designed with a philosophy of "restraint and clarity," the cockpit features a self-developed underlying operating system and debuts globally with Qualcomm’s flagship Snapdragon 8797 Elite chip. This chip delivers 504K CPU task-processing capability, 8.1T GPU graphics rendering power, and an integrated NPU offering 320 TOPS of AI compute—enabling on-device AI model execution and surpassing the hardware performance of mainstream smartphones. The cockpit is equipped with the industry’s first ultra-wide panoramic display featuring a 90Hz refresh rate and 180Hz touch sampling rate, with a display bandwidth of 23.5 Gbps. In single-driver scenarios, the driver’s display area is 1.5 times wider than that of the previous generation’s dual-screen setup. Application interfaces dynamically adapt and respond in real time to the driver’s attention. The audio system has been upgraded to the 9.3.6 Flawless StarRing Theater Sound System, with a peak output of 5,440W. It comprises nine horizontal surround channels, three matrix subwoofers, and six overhead surround channels, covering all three rows of seating. The front and rear cabins feature dedicated 5.2.2 and 7.1.4 dual-zone audio layouts respectively, supporting Dolby Atmos music playback and system-level 96kHz high-sampling-rate audio for lossless music reproduction. Additionally, the cockpit supports Apple CarPlay and connectivity with all mainstream flagship smartphones via ICCOA Carlink. The CarPlay functionality integrates with the HUD to display maps and enables steering wheel controls.
