Is the Lynk & Co 01 a domestic car?
2 Answers
Lynk & Co 01 is not a domestic car, but a joint venture car. The following is the relevant content: Lynk & Co 01 dimensions: The Lynk & Co 01 is the first model developed based on the CMA basic modular architecture, positioned as a compact SUV. The dimensions of this car are 4512mm in length, 1857mm in width, 1689mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2734mm. Lynk & Co 01 configuration: The Lynk & Co 01 is equipped with a 2.0-liter inline 4-cylinder turbocharged engine, matched with either a 6-speed automatic or 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, with a maximum power of 140kw and a maximum torque of 300nm. The fuel supply method is all direct injection. The Lynk & Co 01 adopts a comprehensive luxury NVH configuration, which can avoid the generation of noise and vibration from the source, block the transmission path of noise, optimize sound quality, and make the sound quality purer and more stable in frequency. It is equipped with an INFINITY HiFi-level 10-speaker audio system, with a total power of 360w, which is a luxury car-level audio configuration.
I specifically asked the salesperson this question when I test drove the Lynk & Co 01 the other day. This car comes from the complete vehicle factory in Yuyao, Zhejiang, with workers all locally hired, and even most of the component suppliers are domestic companies. Although the technology was developed together with Volvo, the production is entirely localized. You can see the 'Made in China' label on the car, and the purchase tax is the same as for domestic cars. My friend just picked up the car and even enjoyed the local government's new energy subsidy. From assembly to sales, the entire chain is completed domestically. If this doesn't count as a domestic car, then what does? At least from my driving experience, it feels much more substantial than some joint-venture cars, and the configurations are particularly generous.
