2 Answers
The Lynk & Co 03 uses an electronic gear shift, which only requires a light push of the gear lever. Below is a related introduction about the Lynk & Co 03 car: Model Introduction: The Lynk & Co 03 was officially launched on October 19, 2018, at the Fuji International Speedway in Japan. Positioned as a trendsetting sports sedan, the Lynk & Co 03 comes in three design styles—Pure, Hybrid, and Dynamic—with a total of six models. Exterior: The Lynk & Co 03's aerodynamic design blends the brand's family-style urban contrasting aesthetics with aerodynamic principles, largely maintaining the Lynk & Co family design. The front features split-type headlights, paired with a horizontal front grille and lower trim. The side profile retains the classic three-box sedan shape, with smooth C-pillar lines. The rear features L-shaped taillights, and the lower black trim integrates reflectors.
I've been driving the Lynk & Co 03 for almost a year now, and shifting gears is quite straightforward. After starting the engine, press the brake pedal - its compact electronic gear lever looks small but feels very handy. Push it all the way forward for R (Reverse) gear, the middle position is N (Neutral), and pull it all the way back for D (Drive) to move forward. The best part is the manual mode: when in D gear, just flick the lever to the left and the dashboard will display M (Manual) mode. Then you can use the paddle shifters behind the steering wheel - right paddle for upshifting and left for downshifting, which makes driving on mountain roads particularly thrilling. For temporary stops, there's no need to shift gears - just press the brake pedal firmly and the auto hold function will activate, freeing your right foot. When parking, simply press the P button on top of the gear lever, and remember to engage the electronic parking brake afterward. The gear shifts are very smooth in this car, with almost no jerking when starting at traffic lights.
