How to Shift Gears in the Lynk & Co 03?
2 Answers
The Lynk & Co 03 uses an electronic gear shift, which can be operated by gently pushing the gear lever. Below is an introduction to the Lynk & Co 03: 1. Model Introduction: The Lynk & Co 03 was officially launched on October 19, 2018, at the Fuji Speedway in Japan. Positioned as a trendsetting sports sedan, it comes in six models with three design styles: Pure, Hybrid, and Dynamic. 2. Exterior: The Lynk & Co 03's 'Wind-Cutting Design' combines the brand's family-style 'Urban Contrast Aesthetics' design philosophy with aerodynamic elements. It largely retains the Lynk & Co family design, featuring split-type headlights, a horizontal front grille, and lower trim strips. The side profile maintains the classic three-box sedan shape with smooth C-pillar lines, while the rear features 'L'-shaped taillights and a black decorative panel integrating reflectors.
I usually drive quite steadily, and the gear shifting on the Lynk & Co 03 feels pretty smooth. For the automatic version, after starting the car, press the brake pedal—the gear lever is located on the center console. P stands for Park; push it forward once to shift into R for Reverse, and when reversing, it’s safer to check the camera and rearview mirror. Shifting into N for Neutral is great when stopping at a red light, and pushing it further down to D lets you drive forward. If you want more power, there’s an S mode for Sport, which speeds up acceleration but isn’t fuel-efficient. For the manual version, press the clutch pedal and push the lever to shift into 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc., relying mainly on pedal feel and RPM—shifting up or down smoothly avoids jerking. Over time, you’ll get used to the process; keeping shifts smooth in daily traffic or highway driving is good for the transmission. Always check the gear position before starting to avoid mistakes—safety first. I think these are basic driving skills, and with a bit of practice, it becomes second nature. Pretty practical design overall.
