Li Auto assisted driving scores 99.4% in basic tests on an L6 Max

In CATARC's C-ICAP tests, published on 3 January 2025, Li Auto's assisted driving on an L6 Max scored 99.4% for basic driving assistance and 98.5% for navigation-guided driving assistance.

  • Not rated a person

    CATARC measured the system in its tests, and no crash outcome for drivers or passengers is reported.

Depth runs from 1, a convenience or time saved, to 5, a life or a livelihood preserved.

Reported benefit.

An independent assessment report supports the benefit.

The system’s part
Not isolated. CATARC tested the car with the system switched on, so the scores describe the system's own responses in the tests. There was no run without the system for comparison. The page lists the software version, a 508 TOPS chip, cameras, radar and lidar, but it does not describe machine learning or show that the system learns from data.

Details

AI system

Reported configuration

6.3.0 (software version tested)

Workflow

CATARC acquired the car itself and chose the configuration with the highest level of intelligence after asking the carmaker for technical information. The car ran software version 6.3.0 with a 508 TOPS chip, 12 cameras, 1 millimeter-wave radar, 12 ultrasonic radars and 1 lidar. CATARC tested the car in 2024 under the 2024 rules.

Follow-up

Conditions for replication

The driver stays in charge, since the page warns that assisted driving carries risk and that the driver bears first responsibility. The result applies only to the tested sample, software version and test environment.

Entry details

Sector

Road vehicle crash avoidance / assisted driving.

Purpose

Li Auto built its assisted driving software to help the driver control speed, following distance and steering and to follow a navigation route on highways.
