Lynk & Co 01 vs. the competition

The Lynk & Co 01 has entered the market as another potent option for buyers in the search for a stylish but practical plug-in hybrid (PHEV) compact crossover. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • What is the price of the Lynk & Co 01 in the Philippines?

    In the Philippines, the Lynk & Co 01 is priced at P2.338 million.
  • How much horsepower and torque can the Lynk & Co 01 produce?

    The Lynk & Co 01 can produce up to 258 horsepower and 265 Newton-meters of torque.
  • On the outside, the model wears the unmistakable look of a Lynk & Co vehicle, which mixes elegance with some dash of sportiness. 

    Key exterior features of the ride include a sculpted bonnet, a pair of sharp LED headlamps, the brand’s Aurora Borealis daytime running lamps, LED taillights, and a set of 20-inch two-tone aluminum alloy wheels. 

    Added style and practicality for the vehicle are provided by a roof-mounted spoiler, an active upper grille shutter, dual tailpipes, a power tailgate, a panoramic sunroof, power-folding side mirrors, and roof rails.

    Inside, the Lynk & Co model was kitted out with a contemporarily-design cockpit brimming with soft-touch surfaces. Its dashboard is dominated by a 12.7-inch infotainment screen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, while the driver is provided with a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster. 

    Other cabin features for the 01 PHEV include wireless smartphone charging, power-adjustable seats,  a tilt and telescopic flat-bottom leather steering wheel, a push-to-start button, an electronic parking brake, and automatic air-conditioning, among others. 

    For safety, the 01 is equipped with what you would expect from a modern crossover. Its standard kit is also supported by a number of advanced driver-assist systems (ADAS), like adaptive cruise control, autonomous emergency braking with pedestrian detection, traffic jam assist, lane-keep assist, and lane departure warning.

    For its engine, the 01 PHEV combines a 1.5-liter turbocharged inline-4 engine with an electric motor and a battery. In total, it can produce up to 258 horsepower (hp) and 265 Newton-meters (Nm) of torque. It also has 69 kilometers (km) of pure electric range, a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox, and an AC Type 2 charging port. 

    Pricing for the Lynk & Co 01 PHEV is set at P2.338 million. 

    BYD Sealion 06 DM-i

    One of the Lynk & Co 01’s similarly-sized five-seater PHEV rivals in the Philippine market is the BYD Sealion 06 DM-i

    For its exterior, the Sealion 06 bears an elegant exterior, which was made more enticing thanks to its LED lighting fixtures, its power tailgate, and its set of 19-inch alloy wheels. More convenience and practicality for the BYD model come from its power-folding side mirrors, roof rails, sunroof, rear fog lamps, and many other features.

    Like its rivals listed here, the Sealion 06 is a five-seater model that sports a modern, plush-looking cabin. 

    Notable interior bits for the BYD crossover are a sizable 15.6-inch rotating infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and a 12.3-inch digital driver’s display. It likewise features an electronic parking brake, automatic climate controls, front seat power adjustability, a tilt and telescopic steering wheel, a push-to-start button, and wireless smartphone charging, among others. 

    Safety for the Chinese-made model is provided by a standard kit, which is reinforced by an ADAS suite. Its collection of ADAS features includes adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking, lane-keep assist, forward collision warning, lane departure assist, traffic sign recognition, and intelligent speed-limit control.

    For its powertrain, the Sealion 06 uses BYD’s DM-i system, which is composed of a 1.5-liter turbocharged gasoline mill, an electric motor, and the brand’s lithium iron phosphate battery. 

    At maximum, the vehicle can produce up to 214 hp and 325 Nm of torque. It also has plug-in charging capabilities and a vehicle-to-load feature. The model also has 100 km of electric-only range and an overall driving range of 1,100 km from a single full tank. 

    Currently, the Philippine-spec BYD Sealion 6 DM-i is priced at P1.548 million. 

    Honda CR-V RS e:HEV

    The CR-V RS e:HEV isn’t a PHEV like the Lynk & Co 06, but its price is close enough for it to become a competitor. 

    Style-wise, the CR-V RS employs a boxy-shaped outline combined with sportiness via its black-colored power-folding headlamps, grille, and 18-inch wheels. It also gets a power tailgate, LED exterior lighting fixtures, active cornering lamps, a sunroof, and roof rails.

    Inside, the CR-V RS is a five-seater model with a cabin filled with shiny decorative bits and plenty of soft-touch surfaces. Its mostly straight dashboard features a nine-inch touchscreen and a 10.2-inch digital instrument cluster. 

    The aforementioned headunit offers wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, as well as wireless smartphone charging. 

    Other notable interior features of the CR-V RS are power-adjustable front seats, a dual-zone automatic air-conditioning system, leather-wrapped tilt and telescopic steering wheel, active noise canceling, a push-to-start button, and electronic parking brake, among others. 

    The Honda Sensing ADAS suite primarily handles safety for the five-seater crossover model. The said suite includes adaptive cruise control with low-speed following, automatic emergency braking, lane keep assist, road departure mitigation, forward collision warning, and automatic high beams.

    As mentioned above, the CR-V RS is not a PHEV but a series-parallel hybrid, which uses a 2.0-liter gasoline engine and an electric motor. At the most, it can produce a combined output of 181 hp and 335 Nm of torque. It also has an electronic-only mode, but it lacks a charging port. 

    As of this writing, the CR-V RS e:HEV is priced at P2.59 million.
