Lynk & Co’s 02 is positioned in Vietnam’s growing electric-car market as a crossover for buyers seeking standout styling and an engaging drive. It is the brand’s first fully electric model to be officially distributed in the country, where Lynk & Co has been present for more than three years. The car was developed at the company’s design center in Gothenburg, Sweden, combining a Scandinavian-influenced minimalist approach with a sporty profile.
The coupe-like body uses a sloping roof and relatively uncluttered surfaces. Its wheelbase accounts for about 61.8% of the vehicle’s overall length, while the 2,755-mm wheelbase is also cited as a contributor to rear-seat space. Details include high-mounted daytime running lights and a 1,463-mm rear light bar with 14 LED chips and animated signals. Inside, most controls are integrated into a 15.4-inch, 2.5K central display. The cabin also features a 14-speaker Harman Kardon system rated at up to 1,600 watts.
A rear-mounted electric motor produces 268 hp and 343 Nm, enabling a claimed 0–100 km/h time of 5.5 seconds. The review describes prompt acceleration and the rear-wheel-drive layout as key to the car’s sporty character, while noting that throttle response and steering remain manageable in crowded city traffic. Driver-assistance equipment includes a system that adjusts speed to keep distance from the vehicle ahead. The article also highlights the driver’s sightlines and the second-row space as practical strengths for Vietnamese urban use.
