What is the Lynk & Co 01?
The Lynk & Co 01 is a five-door SUV in the brand’s European range. Its roomy shape and raised driving position make it a natural fit for everyday family use. The Swedish-founded brand is headquartered in Gothenburg and brings together Scandinavian design with connected technology.
The 01’s European generation began in 2021 and continues today. Built on the CMA platform, it helped introduce Lynk & Co to European drivers as a plug-in hybrid SUV. The range also includes hybrid and petrol versions.
Engines and power
European versions use plug-in hybrid, hybrid or petrol power. All have a 1.5-litre engine, and outputs range from 102 kW (139 PS) to 132 kW (179 PS). The plug-in hybrid can be charged externally; hybrid versions combine petrol and electric power without external charging.
The 1.5-litre plug-in hybrid rated at 132 kW (179 PS) was the most registered version in the listed European figures. It led registrations in 2021, 2022 and 2023.
How economical is the Lynk & Co 01?
The lowest stated consumption for the petrol, diesel or hybrid category is 6.6 L/100 km on the WLTP test. For the plug-in hybrid, the lowest figure is 0.9 L/100 km WLTP. This is an official weighted figure that assumes some driving is electric; actual fuel use depends on how much the car is charged and driven on electric power.
In official EEA registration figures, the 01 recorded 76,262 registrations from 2021 to 2025 across ten versions. Test results can differ between markets: Europe uses WLTP or, for some older figures, NEDC, while the USA uses EPA testing and Canada uses the 5-cycle procedure.
