What is the fuel consumption of the Lynk & Co 01?
2 Answers
The fuel consumption of the Lynk & Co 01 is 7.4-7.8L/100KM. The currently available Lynk & Co 01 models include the 2021 2.0TD Front-Wheel Drive Type Pro, 2021 2.0TD Front-Wheel Drive Yao Pro, 2021 2.0TD All-Wheel Drive Jin Halo, and 2021 2.0TD All-Wheel Drive Dark Night Edition. In the same class, the T-ROC Tango 2021 facelift 280TSI DSG Front-Wheel Drive Elite Smart Connect Edition has a combined fuel consumption of 5.9L/100KM; the Mazda CX-4 2021 2.0L Automatic Front-Wheel Drive Blue Sky Youth Edition has a combined fuel consumption of 6.3L/100KM, and the Edge 2020 EcoBoost 245 Front-Wheel Drive Enjoy Edition has a combined fuel consumption of 7.3L/100KM. Factors affecting car fuel consumption: Driving habits: Aggressive driving, such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before encountering a red light, increases fuel consumption. The car itself: Cars with larger displacements generally consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements because larger displacements usually mean greater power, requiring more gasoline to burn and perform work. Cars with greater weight also have higher fuel consumption because greater weight requires more driving torque.
I've been driving this Lynk & Co 01 for about half a year now, and the fuel consumption has been quite stable overall. For daily commuting in the city, it can go up to 10 liters per 100 kilometers when stuck in traffic; but once on the highway, it drops significantly to around 6-7 liters. On average, it's about 7.5 to 8 liters. I've tried different driving styles, like when I floor the accelerator, the fuel consumption shoots up, but driving steadily makes a big difference. It's the 1.5T version, which is relatively more fuel-efficient. Keeping up with maintenance also helps—changing the air filter noticeably improved efficiency. Compared to other SUVs in the same class, like the Tiguan or CR-V, I find it more economical and practical, just don’t go for oversized rims as the extra friction can affect fuel economy.
