Going forward, margin trends could either increase or limit Li Auto's revaluation potential, however. Li Auto's vehicle margins declined 0.2% Q/Q in Q1'23 to 19.8% and a successive margin decline could impact how investors feel about the company's pricing power and revenue potential. An accelerating down-trend in Li Auto's vehicle margins would likely be a negative event for the company and its shares.</p> <h2><strong>Closing thoughts</strong></h2> <div></div> <p>I have doubled my position in Li Auto ahead of Q2'23, which is a direct result of the firm's truly impressive delivery card for the month of July: Li Auto delivered, for the second time in a row more than 30 thousand electric vehicles to its customers in a single month. Li Auto is headed for a strong Q2 earnings release next Tuesday, in my opinion and the firm is likely, given its recent delivery momentum, to submit strong Q3 delivery guidance as well.
