The XC40-based crossover gets a facelift and a healthy power boost
Lynk & Co has updated its 01 plug-in hybrid SUV. The XC40-based SUV—that kinda looks like a Cayenne munching on a Camaro—now has more power and better entertainment tech.
Lynk & Co 01 specs On the outside, there’s a curvier front end with a glossy black grille, a fresh set of wheels, and new tail lights. The powertrain’s been reconfigured too, so the 2.0-litrer petrol engine and plug-in hybrid set-up bring over eighty more horses to the parade. Thusly, power has jumped from 188hp to 276hp. Lynk & Co tells us it's also worked on sharper acceleration and better handling.
Inside, the electrical architecture has been completely overhauled, integrating a new central processing unit and a fancy new Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset. Apparently, that means the Android-based 15.4-inch touchscreen is quicker to respond. The cabin redesign also introduces steering wheel controls for the first time.NOTE: This article first appeared on TopGear.com. Minor edits have been made.
