The Lynk & Co 20 (Chinese: 领克20; pinyin: Lǐng kè 20), previously the Lynk & Co Z20 until 2026, is a battery electric compact crossover SUV marketed by Lynk & Co since 2024.

Overview

In China, the Lynk & Co 20 is the brand's second EV following the 10 sedan. While in Europe, this will be Lynk & Co's first EV and as it is the second model sold in the European markets, the name in Europe will be 02 and in China 20 (as there is already a model named 02).

In Europe, it will be Lynk & Co's first EV and will be marketed as the Lynk & Co 02. The 20 shares multiple design elements with a closely related Zeekr X crossover.

The exterior features Lynk & Co's 'The Next Day' design language, featuring the fork-shaped daytime running lights. It has a heavily sloping rear end which ends in a ducktail spoiler containing the lightbar style taillights, and allows the 20 to have a drag coefficient of 0.25 Cd, compared to the 0.28 Cd of the Zeekr X.

It uses a MacPherson strut front suspension and five-link independent rear suspension, and has optional continuous damping control.

The interior is equipped with a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster supplemented by a 13.8-inch HUD, and a 15.4-inch central infotainment touchscreen all powered by the Dragon Eagle 1 Plus SoC, with two wireless charging pads located below. It has a two-spoke steering wheel with a column shifter, and it is equipped with a 14-speaker Harman Kardon sound system. It also has seats with a 'zero-gravity' recline mode, and the center console contains a refrigerator compartment. The 20 has a 450-litre (15.9 cu ft) rear cargo area, which expands to 1,410 litres (49.8 cu ft) with the rear seats folded down supplemented by a frunk.

The 20 uses a MacPherson strut front suspension and a five-link independent rear suspension.

2026 update

The vehicle was renamed to the Lynk & Co 20 for its update which went on sale on 28 September 2026 in China as the 2027 model year.

The exterior sees minor changes including a black strip connecting the now separated headlight units, body color accents on the lower door, a new roof spoiler, and a redesigned diffuser, resulting in a 35 mm (1.4 in) longer overall vehicle length.

The interior remains mostly similar but features minor changes including better integrated instrument panel and heads-up display, cockpit chipset upgraded to the Dragon Eagle 6P, redesigned center console with volume dial and HVAC control buttons, electronic door handles, mechanical air vent controls, a new 23-speaker Flyme sound system with headrest speakers, 6.8-litre (0.24 cu ft) refrigerator compartment in the center console, threaded accessory mounts, and new upholstery options. The frunk has been significantly enlarged from 23 litres (0.81 cu ft) to 125 litres (4.4 cu ft) which now fits a 37.5 L (1.32 cu ft) freezer accessory.

The Qianli Haohan H5 ADAS system now comes standard, which features a 192-line roof-mounted LiDAR, 3 mmWave radar, 11 cameras, and 12 ultrasonic sensors, all powered by a 128 TOPS Horizon Robotics J6M chip and is capable of assisted driving in highway and urban conditions.

The powertrain receives a major overhaul with a new motor and new battery packs, which offer more range and significantly faster charging.

Powertrain

It is equipped with a 335 hp (250 kW; 340 PS) rear motor outputting 373 N⋅m (275 lb⋅ft) of torque, allowing for a 0–100 km/h (62 mph) time of 5.3 seconds and a top speed of 190 km/h (118 mph). Power is supplied by a 61.5 kWh LFP battery pack designed and produced in house by parent company Zeekr's VREMT (Viridi E-Mobility Technology) battery division, which provides 530 kilometres (329 mi) of CLTC range and is capable of 300 kW peak charging rates for 4.5C charging from 10–80% in 15 minutes. A variant with a smaller battery was added in 2025 with capacity of 51.2 kWh capable of a CLTC range of 430 kilometres (267 mi) and 10–80% in 18 minutes (3.3C) with a lower 185 kW peak. It is paired with a 235 hp (175 kW; 238 PS) motor, which allows for a 0–100 km/h (62 mph) time of 6.9 seconds and a top speed of 180 km/h (112 mph).

2026 update

Lynk & Co 20

For the 2026 update, the vehicle receives an all-new powertrain which uses an 800-volt architecture as standard. It uses Geely's new 16-in-1 powertrain module, which integrates the motor, motor controller, gear reduction, DC-DC converter, onboard AC charger, power distribution unit, high-voltage and low-voltage battery management systems, vehicle control unit, thermal management system, active pre-charge control, power domain gateway, energy management, charging management, motion management, and health management functions into one single integrated module. Geely says the integration eliminates over 180 parts, reduces weight by 15% to 75 kg (165 lb), and reduces high-voltage and low-voltage wiring by 30% and 15%, respectively. Geely says it has a peak efficiency of 93.8%, power density of 11.8 kW/kg (7.2 hp/lb; 15.8 hp/kg), and a height of 325 mm (12.8 in) which increases trunk volume by up to 28 litres (0.99 cu ft). All variants now use a rear motor outputting 328 hp (245 kW; 333 PS) and 320 N⋅m (236 lb⋅ft) of torque, which increases the top speed to 201 km/h (125 mph). The 20 receives two new LFP battery packs supplied by VREMT and are both capable of 6C recharging from 10–80% within 12 minutes. The standard battery is 61.52 kWh and has a peak charge rate of 420 kW and achieves 545 km (339 mi) of CLTC range, while the larger battery is 70.01 kWh and has a peak charge rate of 460 kW and 630 km (391 mi) of CLTC range.
