Lynk & Co 02: range, price, specs and where it is sold
Facts checked
The car Europe knows as the Lynk & Co 02 is sold in China as the Lynk & Co Z20. It is the brand's first battery-electric model in Europe: a 4,460 mm compact crossover on SEA2, the same electric platform as the Zeekr X and the smart #1. Chinese sales began on 22 December 2024.
European cars use a 66 kWh NMC battery and a single 200 kW motor, rated 435 km WLTP in Core trim and 445 km in More trim. Chinese cars are offered with 51.2 kWh, 61.47 kWh and 70 kWh packs and quoted 430 to 630 km on the CLTC cycle, a different test that returns higher figures than WLTP for the same car.
The number change matters when comparing specifications across markets: an older, unrelated Lynk & Co 02 was sold in China from 2018 as a petrol car on the CMA platform, and it shares nothing with the European electric 02 beyond the badge. No Euro NCAP result had been published for the current 02 as of 4 September 2026.
