Four power combinations, Lynk & Co 02 crossover SUV will be released at the end of the month

It has the name of a luxury brand on it, forming a high, medium and low positioning combination of Lynk & Co and the brand. The road to building Lynk & Co luxury seems to be much smoother than the brand premium recognition. Don’t look at the current VV7 and VV5 models, both of which have been upgraded to the monthly average of 10,000 vehicles, but their price is not much more expensive than the brand models of the same model level.

The average selling price of the VV7, which is slightly larger than the medium-sized five-seat model, is even slightly lower than the average selling price of the compact five-seat model. It is not difficult to see that the two have opened up a substantial gap in terms of brand premium. In addition, in terms of model layout, the two brands have also taken different routes, continuing the strategy, and the next third model, VV6, can be called a replica. Lynk & Co is different. In addition to the 01 model that has been listed, we have already exposed the 02, 03, and 04 models that will be launched one after another this year. They are respectively positioned as crossover, sedan, and hatchback cars. The model formats are quite rich.

 

Expected IPO time: mid-2018

Estimated price: 10-180,000 yuan

Power configuration: 1.5T low, high, 2.0T

 

Next will be officially released on March 26th, the following combined with the information we have, for you to interpret this new crossover model in advance. When it comes to crossovers, it is much niche than standard models, such as Mercedes-Benz GLA, City, and the market performance can be described as mixed. 

And it seems to have a soft spot for this, and it is also full of confidence. First of all, in the cross-border market, it leads the way, with monthly sales of more than 10,000 vehicles. The old RS, which has been not sullen in the past, after a facelift, increased the ground clearance and turned into a new cross-border. Since the second month of listing, it has stabilized the monthly sales of 10,000 vehicles. Therefore, the next trick is to repeat the same trick, and it is still the positioning of the cross-border, continuing to seize the market in a higher price range.

The length, width and height are 4448 * 1890 * 1572mm, 2702mm, which are similar to and similar in all aspects. They are all standard hatchback cars with ground clearance. The height of 1572mm is 1528mm after removing the luggage rack, which is about 50mm higher than the conventional hatchback of the same level, basically all of which is used to improve the ground clearance.

 

 In terms of power system, three and four power matching solutions are provided. The entry-level model adopts the low version 1.5T, JLH-3G15TDC, 115kW. With the dual clutch and DCT, especially the appearance of manual transmission, it will help to achieve a lower entry threshold than the standard automatic transmission of the whole system. The manual transmission and automatic transmission are 1426kg and 1520kg respectively, because the manual transmission model configuration is lower, so it is also much lighter. The corresponding comprehensive working conditions are 5.8L and 6L respectively, while the low-matching manual transmission model under urban working conditions is more obvious, only 7L/100km, and the automatic transmission reaches 8L/100km.

The middle power is 1.5T, model JLH-3G15TD, 132kW, the same is 1520kg, and the comprehensive working condition is 6.2L. The high-end version is B4204, 140kW, 300Nm, 1645kg with the same model, and is equipped with AWD system, so the comprehensive working conditions and urban working conditions reach 6.8L and 8.8L respectively.

In terms of appearance, there is a family style, such as the iconic split light group, and the design of the front and rear light groups are similar. But it also reflects its own personality, such as the treatment of the headlight part. On the 01 model, only the high-end one has a good appearance, while the low-end version has a good appearance because the silver lamp cup is too conspicuous, which affects the overall coordination. On the 02 model, although it is also a low-end silver lamp cup emission headlight, the whole headlight part is more concave, and a teary-eyed black grille decoration is added below, which makes the whole headlight look much deeper, and instead focuses on the long lamp body on both sides.

In addition, it is more prominent and rich in personalized atmosphere. The front and rear bars under the guard, as well as the side skirt, and the inner frame of the aluminum alloy spoke will use the same color to show the fashionable atmosphere. So far, it has been known that there are five combinations of black and electroplated silver, as well as orange, purple, and blue.

The entry-level 1.5T low version model is equipped with 17 inches and 215/60R17, and the medium and high 1.5T high version and 2.0TAWD four-wheel drive models are standard with 18 inches and 235/50R18 width. In addition, the high-end version models also have configurations, which are also higher configurations in the same class of compact crossovers.

The taillight group is the same style, and the energy crystal is very recognizable. However, the entry-level 1.5T manual transmission model will use the low-end version of the taillight, and the entire lamp body profile will remain unchanged, but it will be reduced to a halogen light source, and there will be no high-end display effect. The high-end 2.0T four-wheel drive version will be marked with "AWD" behind the word 02 on the tail.

The interior part is also a family-style design, and the difference between the 01 model is only reflected in the trend of air conditioning being designed more three-dimensional, the middle trend and multimedia system of the 01 model are integrated panel and frame design, while the 02 model The two trends stand out independently and stand out outward, which also reflects its younger and more personalized design.

The layout of the automatic transmission version is basically the same as that of the 01 model. They are both DCTs with electronic gears, similar to the short and small electronic gears in the style of high-end crystal gears, which adds a lot to the luxurious atmosphere of Lynk & Co’s entire interior. The manual transmission model that appeared for the first time is still equipped with the and system, and its button function has been slightly changed. It should be downgraded from the automatic constant temperature air conditioner with independent double temperature zone to the single temperature zone air conditioner with ordinary electric control. The left knob is the wind direction adjustment, and the right side is the air volume adjustment.

From the perspective of the entire model layout, the manual transmission model has only an entry-level configuration, which is mainly used to lower the threshold. The high-end 2.0T power standard four-wheel drive system is also a niche version that sets the benchmark. The overall pricing is expected to be in the 10-180,000 yuan range, but the real main force should be the 1.5T high and low version of the automatic transmission model. The main price range will be concentrated in the 12-160,000 yuan range.
