Yesterday, a new version of the Lynk & Co 02 Hatchback was launched. First of all, it is said that the focus has been added 2 versions, the engine has been replaced with a 2.0T low-power engine, and the price has dropped to 150,800 and 162,800 yuan.

The new version has not changed in terms of body dimensions, interior layout and wheel shape. The main changes of the two new models are, first, the replacement of the Drive-E T4 2.0T turbo engine and a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission, with a maximum engine power of 140 kW and a peak torque of 300 N·m. Compared to the Halo version of the Drive-E T5 2.0T engine power reduction of 47 kW, torque reduced by 50 N·m. Second: The tires were replaced by Michelin PS4 tires for another sporty Goodyear Eagle F1 tire. Third: the exterior of the new car has gray and white colors to choose from, and the interior orange decoration is replaced by black. Fourth: the car machine is replaced by the E03 chip.
The above four changes, in addition to the replacement of the car machine chip with the faster E03 chip, such as the replacement of low-power engines, lower-cost tires and new versions to remove the iconic colors and interiors. From these points of view, the significance of the two new models is to give more young people the opportunity and reason to choose this car.
The Lynk & Co 02 Hatchback model is very familiar to us, and the 2021 model was launched on June 1 last year. At that time, this car was advertised as a "real steel cannon", and we also tested this car many times in "Snail Car Chronicle", and also did a program in the track to analyze how Lynk & Co 02 Hatchback and Lynk & Co 03+ were selected, and the final conclusion was that in the fun attributes, driving pleasure and flexibility were stronger than Lynk & Co 03+. And I saw yesterday that the new version of Lynk & Co 02 Hatchback is listed at a lower price, and I have a question in my mind how to choose the low-power Lynk & Co 02 Hatchback and Lynk & Co 03? Look down.

First of all, the two cars are very different in terms of appearance in terms of style. Although they all have Lynk & Co's family design language, the shape of the Lynk & Co 03 is relatively more domestical than the shape of the hatchback short tail of the Lynk & Co 02 Hatchback because it is a sedan. In addition, the low-power model of the Lynk & Co 02 Hatchback has no obvious difference in appearance compared to the Halo version, and there are still scare four-out exhaust, 19-inch wheels, tail fins, diffusers and other sports kits that highlight performance. Although only Hatchback does not have a +, the atmosphere on the outside is very full. The Lynk & Co 03 and 03+ still have certain differences in appearance, such as no four-out exhaust, carbon fiber tail and so on. Therefore, in the original state, the sense of movement of the Lynk & Co 02 Hatchback is stronger than that of the Lynk & Co 03.

In terms of interior, there is basically no difference in the layout of the two cars. And the interior of the low-power version of Lynk & Co 02 Hatchback and the Halo version will have some differences in materials, and the interior material of the low-power version is basically synchronized with Lynk & Co 03. Coupled with the lack of halo version orange embellishment in color, the low-power Lynk & Co 02 Hatchback and Lynk & Co 03 interior are indistinguishable.

The new version of the Lynk & Co 02 Hatchback is exactly the same as the Lynk & Co 03 2.0T low-power version in terms of power, and the transmission system is also using a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission, and the suspension form is exactly the same. The difference is that, first: Lynk & Co 02 Hatchback has less tailbox than Lynk & Co 03, and the weight of the front and rear of the two cars is different. Second: Curb quality Lynk & Co 02 Hatchback height 20KG. Third: The Lynk & Co 02 Hatchback has 19 inches of wheel size, while the 03 2.0T low-power version is only 18 inches and 17 inches.
Since the 03 does not have a 03+ four-wheel drive system, and the low-power Lynk & Co 02 Hatchback and the 2.0T low-power version 03 are generally not much different. Therefore, in the daily walking of the street, basically can not experience the difference between the two cars, only in the multi-bend track Lynk & Co 02 Hatchback will appear relatively active in the tail.
Finally, let's talk about the price, from the guide price, the low-power Lynk & Co 02 Hatchback and the 2.0T low-power version of 03 are exactly the same. However, from the current market price, the 2.0T low-power version of 03 is about 5,000 yuan or more. The low-power Lynk & Co 02 Hatchback, which has just been listed, is expected to be difficult to give such a large preferential policy in the short term.
Write at the end
The low-power Lynk & Co 02 Hatchback and 2.0T low-power version 03 are not as different as the Lynk & Co 03+ and Lynk & Co 02 Hatchback Halo editions. There are not many differences in price, configuration, power and interior, the main difference is in the appearance. How to choose these two cars is very clear, like the appearance of 03, need a lot of space and friends who have recently bought a car choose Lynk & Co 03, on the contrary, the pursuit of personality, like the appearance of Lynk & Co 02 Hatchback choose Lynk & Co 02 Hatchback.
