Hello everyone, I'm a chestnut.
In the fan circle, the word "virtual label" and Lynk & Co are closely tied, probably because the Lynk & Co 03+ that was once known as "China's performance car" always fails to achieve the official nominal results when accelerating in a straight line, so it is hily mentioned the name of "false label". So this time to get Lynk & Co 05+, our first project is linear acceleration. The official report 0-100km/h acceleration takes 6.5 seconds, what is the actual performance?
Regarding the Lynk & Co+ series, I still have a lot to say. My feeling about the + series is – I respect its presence and look forward to what it does
And how to understand "tending to superficial kung fu"? This may be a necessary path, or it may be a relative shortcut to dealing with the consumer market. Maverick looks, exaggerated kits, solid stacking, high-pitched sound, and more efficient four-wheel drive are all things that can be exchanged at a lower cost, and these also fully meet the entry-level needs of a sports car. In other words, if I had seen such a sports car 10 years ago, "21-year-old chestnut" would have been very excited. I'm willing to drive it every day, be the strongest rider on the road, participate in all the riders' parties, and enjoy the moments when others praise my car.
However, the 31-year-old chestnut, in the field of cars, has also seen a broader sky. Tried 03+ in 2019 and left me with the impression of a pseudo-movement. A person without muscles who wears a Nike and dares to call himself an athlete? But I know that this is the first time that Lynk & Co has done the + series, and we should not be too demanding, so I rarely publish my evaluation of 03+ on social networks, and I know that "21-year-old chestnuts" will listen to these objective evaluations, will be angry, and will use the keyboard to defend their car.
Two years later, the second + series came – the Lynk & Co 05+. I have to say that 05+ is better than 03+, but the same set of chassis and walking parts out of the car, can not complete the fundamental transformation. The performance of the initial stage of acceleration is still excellent, but after 60km/h acceleration ability, it begins to gradually weaken and is not strong enough. The shift has gotten better, which deserves praise. The gearbox is limited by Aisin's hardware, and the engineers are also trying their best in tuning, with more than enough daily life and insufficient performance. The shock absorber does not have an ESC, but a very critical point is found between comfort and movement, which is very advanced. As for the sound wave, I find it slightly sparing in economy and comfort mode, and very competent in sport and performance mode.
In my opinion, the Lynk & Co 05+ is more like a sports car dedicated to daily transportation, very easy to drive, and the overall sense of atmosphere is very in place. If you want a sports car like this, without playing with modifications or going to the track, then 05+ is a very personal choice. If you care more about the "play" attributes, the potential of the car, and the absolute handling performance, the current + series of cars is not enough to meet your needs.
Are you satisfied with this Lynk & Co 05+ review?
