The IM L6 features a semi-solid-state battery. It is marketed as the "first-generation light-year solid-state battery," with mass manufacture and ultra-fast charging capabilities. The capacity reaches 130kWh, guaranteeing a Chinese Light-Duty Test Cycle (CLTC) range of more than 1,000 kilometers and setting a new standard in green transportation.

The technology, which is unique to the Chinese market, also includes crab walk capabilities, a trademark feature that improves maneuverability to unparalleled levels.
In terms of the Future Cockpit, IM Motors equips the L6 with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8295P and NVIDIA Orin X CPUs, as well as roof-mounted LiDAR. The integrated technology provides an unprecedented range of Advanced Driver-Assistance System (ADAS) functions, including a public beta test of city-pilot aided driving scheduled for Q2 2024.
