Geely Group’s Lynk & Co. has unveiled a refreshed 01 plug-in hybrid SUV, launched in 2021. Visual changes are minimal, with the main focus on powertrain enhancements, which now deliver 206 kW (276 hp) compared to the previous model’s 192 kW (261 hp). The vehicle is available with a unique subscription model, in addition to the usual sales options.
The Lynk & Co 01 (2024) measures 4.54 meters in length, 1.85 meters in width and 1.69 meters in height, with a 466/1,213-liter trunk. Visual changes include details such as a gloss black front grille, newly designed alloy wheels and LED rear lights.
