LYNK&CO 01 - WINTER E-RANGE TEST ⚡️

[@makotohanazawa6560]

around 70 is absolutely acceptable for everyday commute in the European urban environment. you drive to work, charge it every two three days or so and stay 100% environment-friendly

[@thom-lov]

Absolutely! 🙂

Nice test! I am curious to know what are your infos about a new link&co 01 full electric that is going to be released next year.

[@koenc]

If you had done the test in January or February the number of km’s you could get would have been significant less, somewhere between 40 and 50 km max with lots of highway driving . So big difference.

[@thom-lov]

Biggest impact is highway, no matter what outside conditions. People expecting the WLTP range from highway driving need to take a look at how WLTP is calculated & tested. 😄

[@vizares]

Max 50 kilometers on mine

[@Fab84NL]

Nice one Thom! Collecting mine tomorrow so was already wondering What the winter range would be these days!

[@thom-lov]

Awesome! Hope you had a fun delivery and are enjoying the 01 already! :-)

Great to see another test. Highly apreciated. Do you have any info about the fuel consumption when the batery is deplited and you drive on highway only? This is something that I really can't find and we all use a phev for longer journyes. You can even write me in private if you want. Thank you once again for this review!

[@koenc]

It depends on the maximum speed in your country. But at speeds of around 120 to 125 km let’s say 8 litres from my personal experience. Speeds around 70 km and some stop and go, everything from 4 to 6 litres.

[@marian2nita]

@@koenc Thank you Koen. Netherlands it is my country of residence so mostly 100 km speed limit but it is good that you could share something from your experience. Adding 3 persons and luggage + airco will hit the 10 liter pe 100km?

[@thom-lov]

With an empty battery I averaged about 7.2'ish per 100kmh (in NL). If you start charging the battery meanwhile it will go pretty quick to 8 on a 100. If the car will be fully packed, AC on and such I expect you will sit somewhere around 7.5 to 9 on 100. Also tentative of speed and wind directions. 🙂

[@piotrkurek79]

@@thom-lov That's a high fuel consumption.

[@bennospijker9737]

Al met al toch super Thom , trouwens L&c mag jou wel wat extra korting geven ! Door jou komt mn Lynk 5 Sept .

[@thom-lov]

Gaaf Benno, gefeliciteerd! Daar ga je geen spijt van krijgen, verwacht ik. 😊 Bedankt voor het kijken, grts!

[@zhuzuinan]

Thom, have u also tested the parking assistent? Do you have made a video about it?

[@thom-lov]

Hi Albert-Jan, I did test it but not recorded yet. But I got to say it worked pretty well. Cars does need some clear lines to recognize the parking spot though but that's with pretty much every parking assistant obviously. But overall I'd say it works just fine! 🙂 Cheers,

Hey thom , below zero when using the heater tge battrey is drained very fast . It can be drained even if you are bot moving . Without heater it will give arouns 60 km to 70 . On the other hand the car is v good am uaing it for 4 months now I have question I can frel very cold air coming from.below the driver seat , any idea ?

[@techderaudios]

also from netherlands region friesland maybe if lynk co accepts my offer soon will drive one ;)

[@raphaeltran1538]

Great second electric range test,thank you . Could you do the same on highway with an empty battery. Wanna Know the real consumption of gas and the fuel tank volume. I havent found thoses informations on website.

[@thom-lov]

Happy to help Raphaël! With an empty battery I averaged about 7.2'ish per 100kmh (in NL). If you start charging the battery meanwhile it will go pretty quick to 8/8.5l on 100km. Thats with max speeds of 110kmh on highways. It's a heavy car and you notice that especially when the battery is empty and the 1.5l 3cyl turbo needs to do all the work.

[@stuartabel1594]

Hi Thom, great reviews as always! Quick question - have they fixed the 1-2 second lag at around 95kmh when driving in pure mode yet, or is it still an issue?

[@thom-lov]

Thanks Stuart! Sadly it's still in there as this is the moment the car shifts from the 2nd to 4th gear (petrol engine) to prevent damage to the drivetrain when the petrol engine support is suddenly required. Due note this delay is only noticable from a direct or very long acceleration. Otherwise the car already shifts at a sudden moment and you will not notice it. :-)

[@Heij]

Hi Thom, how is the performance on the electric motor alone? I can imagine that the car in the city is a bit slower and how is the performance with the petrol engine without the electric motor?

[@thom-lov]

It’s still decent as the battery motor is pretty torque’y so no issues getting along in the city (which I did plenty in the 01). Engine alone has to work a bit more as it’s just a 3cyl turbo so you need to push it a bit, but in all cases the battery motor will support it even when you are charging/saving it. So overall this drivetrain is just very good 👍

[@Sapphire901]

Goede review 😃

[@thom-lov]

Dankje!

[@robstone8435]

Hoi, ik zit er over na te denken om een lynk en co te kopen, welk advies 2021 of beter modeljaar 22, met 360 camera? 6:31

[@thom-lov]

Ik raad zeker 2022+ aan

[@ren2704]

Hello, sorry to hijack the video but I was wondering if it is normal that when I ordered my lynk&Co, the company is telling me to look for a car insurance? I thought the 500€ fee was all inclusive?

[@thom-lov]

Should be included in the price. Which market are you subscribing in?

[@koenc]

@@ren2704 did you actually needed an (extra) insurance then ? I drive a Lynk en Co and it was never told me ..

[@ren2704]

@@koenc No I didn't. I asked the delivery guy and he was surprised. What surprised me is that he never asked me to show any ID or driving licence... Did you get as well the "good news" of the monthly fee increase?
