This is the Lynk & Co 02 Hatchback. It’s positioned as a performance hatchback, sharing the same powertrain as its sedan sibling, the Lynk & Co 03+.
The Lynk & Co 02 Hatchback gets a 2.0-litre turbocharged direct injection engine that makes 254 PS and 350 Nm of torque, paired to an 8-speed automatic transmission supplied by Aisin. Power goes to the front wheels, as per traditional hot hatch.
Claimed 0-100 km/h time is 6.2 seconds, which is in the ballpark of the Volkswagen Golf GTI.
Outside, there’s a new orange paint scheme, lowered suspension, flared wheel arches, and quad tailpipes to hint at its performance intention.
Details of the Lynk & Co 02 Hatchback are still scarce as this is merely a preview. It will reportedly be unveiled in the first half of 2021, with more info to come.
The quest for automotive knowledge began as soon as the earliest memories. Various sources information, even questionable ones, have been explored including video games, television, magazines, or even internet forums. Still stuck in that rabbit hole.
