Lynk & Co ( Chinese : 领 克) is a brand of the Chinese automobile manufacturer Geely , which was founded in October 2016. Lynk & Co vehicles are positioned between those of the Geely brand and its Swedish subsidiary Volvo . The focus of Lynk & Co is on networked models and innovative sales strategies, with which the company aims to appeal to younger car buyers in particular.

Sales strategy

Lynk & Co vehicles are intended to be sold through a direct sales model in most markets . In contrast to many other brands in which the vehicles are sold through car dealerships , the company saves itself this logistical effort by ordering vehicles over the Internet. The first vehicles have been sold in China since the end of November 2017; the market launch for Europe and the United States was originally planned for the end of 2019. The Lynk & Co models are built in Taizhou .
