Is the Lynk & Co 03 Fuel-Efficient?
2 Answers
The Lynk & Co 03 is equipped with three different engine models: JLH-3G15TDC, JLH-4G20TD, and B4204T23. The official combined fuel consumption figures for these three engines are 6.2L/100km, 6.5L/100km, and 7.4L/100km, respectively. This indicates that the Lynk & Co 03 is relatively fuel-efficient. Below are the related details: 1. The Lynk & Co 03 underwent a fuel consumption test, achieving a combined fuel consumption of 7.1L/100km, which is quite satisfactory. It is powered by a 1.5T engine with a maximum output of 156 horsepower (low power)/180 horsepower (high power) and a peak torque of 245 Nm (low power)/265 Nm (high power). The engine is paired with either a 6MT or 7DCT transmission. 2. The Lynk & Co 03's 0-100 km/h acceleration performance has always been among the best in its class. The strong sense of push-back during initial acceleration is noticeable, and switching to sport mode not only enhances acceleration but also provides more sustained power, making the driving experience more exhilarating.
I've been driving the Lynk & Co 03 with the 1.5T engine for almost two years now, and to be honest, this car isn't the fuel-efficient type. In city traffic jams, the display shows around 9L/100km, while highway cruising can drop it to about 6.5L. Comparing it to Japanese cars I've driven before, the Lynk & Co does consume more fuel. But considering its Volvo-derived chassis technology and safety features like autonomous emergency braking, I'm willing to accept the higher fuel consumption. If you're really concerned about fuel efficiency, I've heard the new hybrid version can achieve around 4L/100km, but as an existing owner, I'm not looking to change cars just yet.
