The Lynk & Co 900 is a full-size plug-in hybrid SUV that integrates European safety engineering with advanced Chinese electric vehicle technology. Built on the SPA Evo platform, the vehicle is 5.24 meters in length, offering a three-row cabin designed to accommodate modern family needs. It features innovative amenities such as rotating second-row seats, multiple large 6K OLED touchscreen displays, and premium materials including Nappa leather upholstery and ambient lighting.
Under the hood, the SUV employs an EM-P hybrid powertrain with a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine functioning as a generator, paired with three electric motors. This configuration delivers a combined output of 528 kW (710 horsepower) and approximately 1,000 Nm of torque. The vehicle can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in about 4.6 seconds and has a top speed of 210 km/h. Its 52.38 kWh battery supports up to 170 km of electric-only driving under the NEDC cycle, with a total driving range nearing 870 km. The SUV also offers fast DC charging capability, replenishing the battery from 20% to 80% in approximately 17 minutes, complemented by a 60-liter fuel tank for extended range.
The vehicle’s exterior design emphasizes both functionality and style, featuring a panoramic fixed glass roof, large 20- and 21-inch alloy wheels, and a novel split tailgate that can open both upward and downward to serve as a shelter or seating area. Its ground clearance measures around 194 mm, supported by 275/45 R21 tires.
Technology and safety features are central to the Lynk & Co 900’s appeal. The SUV offers 5G connectivity, over-the-air software updates, and a “transparent chassis” mode that provides a 540-degree view of the surroundings through integrated cameras. It comes standard with Level 2 autonomous driving capabilities, including LiDAR-based adaptive cruise control, lane centering, highway assist, automatic emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, and a comprehensive sensor suite. Safety systems include an 11-airbag configuration and a robust structure engineered to withstand impacts at speeds up to 100 km/h while maintaining occupant protection.
