Huawei P9 Lite 2017, presented at CES and being a refreshed version of the last year’s P9 Lite launches in Europe. As… Huawei P8 Lite 2017.
Why is there such a confusion with the name – I have no idea. It is possible that Huawei does not want to create an “internal” competition for the well-selling P9 Lite - but only the Chinese board of directors knows why it was decided to use the name of the older model. In my opinion, it would have been better to use the original marking, and in order to avoid the "cannibalization" of the current model, they could have launched this novelty under a completely different mark or under the Honor brand. But I will not dispute with the world’s third smartphones manufacturer… The thing is that clients can be misguided – especially that in a few months the P10 Lite model should appear – and then we will have chaos.

But let us get back to the crux of the matter. German websites claim that Huawei P9 Lite 2017, that is Huawei P8 Lite 2017, will cost 239 euro.
