Almost the entire current IM Motors lineup is on display at the brand's Chengdu stand — from the L6 sedan to the enormous six-seat LS9 Hyper. But the real headline wasn't another trim level. At the Chengdu Motor Show 2026, the company unveiled its NEXT·2028 roadmap, under which future models will share three core technical elements: the NEO architecture, a fully electronic chassis, and the IM Claw intelligent agent.
The first major arrival will be the next-generation LS6 — promised as soon as September. The company claims an 800-volt electrical architecture for the new platform, and for the chassis, electronic steering and braking with redundant critical systems. That's a fundamental break from the usual setup: driver commands go straight to the electronics, and rear-wheel steering lets a large car shrink its turning radius dramatically.
Some of that tech is already riding around in the production LS9 Hyper. The 5,279 mm flagship gets tri-motor all-wheel drive, a 66 kWh battery, and a 0-100 km/h sprint of 3.9 seconds. Electric-only range is 390 km on the CLTC cycle, with 1,460 km combined. The official price is 379,800 yuan (roughly $53,000), though incentives currently in effect in China bring it in cheaper.
Another headline arrival at the stand is the new-generation L6 sedan, with pre-orders opening right before the show. Standard versions are priced from 219,900 yuan (about $30,700). Maximum range reaches 850 km on CLTC, and the most powerful all-wheel-drive version hits 100 km/h in 2.74 seconds — though that's a different trim entirely.
Chengdu also brought out a limited L6 Prof. Jimmy Choo. Versions with 76 and 93 kWh batteries carry pre-order prices of 234,900 and 249,900 yuan (roughly $32,800 and $34,900). The first production run is capped at 1,000 cars.
There's no direct follow-up for the Russian market yet. No official announcement has been made about IM Motors sales in Russia, or about a Russian distributor launching the new LS6 and L6.
