As someone very interested in automotive brands, I know that Lynk & Co is indeed a joint venture brand. It was jointly founded in 2016 by China's Geely Auto and Sweden's Volvo Cars. Geely had already acquired Volvo, so they teamed up to create Lynk & Co, targeting the global market. The brand design combines Nordic minimalism with Chinese practicality, and cars like the Lynk & Co 01 or 03 offer both European safety standards and Chinese value for money. When buying a car, you'll find it positioned as premium but affordable, with good reliability. Now Lynk & Co is pushing forward with electrification, its model lineup is expanding, and its owner community is active—this joint venture model has enabled its rapid growth.

I have studied automotive technology for many years, and Lynk & Co's technical foundation is a model of joint ventures. Geely and Volvo share the CMA platform, with safety and handling derived from European standards, yet optimized for cost efficiency through production in Chinese factories. The brand quickly gained popularity after its launch in 2016, with products like the Lynk & Co 02 using tuned Volvo engines for a smooth driving experience. Its joint venture status means strong R&D resource integration, stable vehicle performance, and strict quality control, making it ideal for users who value practicality and innovation. Now, it has introduced new energy models like the Lynk & Co 08, which are even more efficient.

I bought a Lynk & Co 03 last year, and the driving experience was fantastic. It handles like a European car but comes at an affordable price. Understanding the background, it's a joint venture product of Geely and Volvo, sharing platforms and technology. The car is reliable in quality and easy to maintain. As a user, I feel the joint venture model gives Lynk & Co a competitive edge, with well-balanced interior design and powertrain tuning. The brand is still expanding, like with the Lynk & Co 09 hybrid version.
