The Lynk & Co brand could sell 10,000 cars in Europe in 2022
- The Chinese brand Lynk & Co is one of the many brands of the Geely group - the first Chinese independent carmaker (meaning without counting vehicles assembled in joint ventures) - along with Volvo, Polestar, Emgrand, Engon, Gleagle or Geometry. It is one of the Chinese brands which clearly aims to invest in the European market, such as MG, Maxus, Aiways, Great Wall, Polestar, Seres, Xpeng, etc...
- For the moment, the Lynk & Co range does not include battery electric vehicles (BEVs) but only hybrid models (HEVs) and plug-in hybrids (PHEVs).
- Currently, Lynk & Co's European products range is made up of a C-segment SUV named simply 01, which is a PHEV using an 1.5 turbo gasoline engine also used by the Volvo XC40, and based on the same CMA platform. Produced in China, the Lynk & Co 01 is marketed in Europe at 41,500 euros, while an Volkswagen ID4 is priced from 41,000 to 53,000 euros. A DS 7 Crossback PHEV is priced from 50,800 to 56,300 euros and a Toyota RAV4 PHEV 52,650 euros. The price of the Lynk & Co 01 is therefore at the bottom of the price range for a C / D segment SUVs.
- Lynk & Co’s sales in Europe, which started in January 2021 with the 01, are growing steadily, reaching 1,263 units in September 2021 and 2,674 units over the first nine months of the year. The main European markets are the Netherlands and Sweden, followed by Italy, Spain, Belgium and France.
- A second model should be marketed in 2022, the Lynk & Co 02, which is derived from the 01. The Lynk & Co brand could sell 10,000 cars in Europe in 2022.
