Does the Lynk & Co 01 Have a Particulate Filter?
2 Answers
Lynk & Co 01 has a particulate filter. All Lynk & Co models are equipped with turbocharged engines that include particulate filters. Lynk & Co uses two types of engines: a 1.5-liter three-cylinder turbocharged engine and a 2.0-liter four-cylinder turbocharged engine. Introduction to Particulate Filters: A particulate filter is a ceramic filter installed in the exhaust system of diesel engines, which captures particulate emissions before they enter the atmosphere. Function of Particulate Filters: Particulate filters can reduce soot produced by diesel engines by more than 90%, and the captured particulate emissions are subsequently burned off during vehicle operation. Application Technology of Particulate Filters: Particulate filters utilize advanced electronic control systems, catalytic coatings, and fuel-additive catalysts.
I've been driving the Lynk & Co 01 gasoline version for over two years now, and it definitely has a particulate filter. This device was added by the manufacturer to meet China's National VI emission standards, mainly to filter fine particles from the exhaust pipe and reduce air pollution. I mostly drive in the city, and occasionally the dashboard will light up with a particulate filter regeneration prompt, which means I should drive at high speed for about ten kilometers to let it automatically clear any blockages. You get used to it—it doesn't affect the driving experience. As a new brand, Lynk & Co pays a lot of attention to environmental protection, and this feature makes the exhaust cleaner. Fellow car owners have discussed it, and they all say maintenance is simple—just drive normally and avoid crawling at low speeds all the time. The performance is still great, and it drives smoothly.
