Flagship arrival

Lynk & Co has introduced its flagship SUV to Philippine buyers with the arrival of the 900, a six-seat plug-in hybrid priced at P4.28 million. The model made its local debut on 6 November at Sta. Elena Golf and Country Estate in Santa Rosa, Laguna.

The 900 is the brand’s first product launch under Geely Motor Philippines (GMP) since Lynk & Co’s local operations were integrated into the company. It joins the fully electric Lynk & Co 02 and the 08 EM-P plug-in hybrid SUV in the Philippine lineup.

The new SUV comes in a single EM-P Ultra variant. Its 2.0-liter turbocharged gasoline engine works with front and rear electric motors, a three-speed hybrid transmission and electric all-wheel drive.

Combined output reaches 718 PS and 1,038 Nm of torque. According to the manufacturer, the SUV can accelerate from zero to 100 km/h in 4.9 seconds and reach a top speed of 210 km/h.

A 50-kWh battery provides a claimed electric-only range of up to 170 kilometers. Total driving range can reach 1,000 kilometers with the gasoline engine and battery working together.

Lynk & Co says a compatible 120-kW DC fast charger can replenish the battery from 20 to 80 percent in approximately 17 minutes. The vehicle also supports 6.6-kW AC home charging.

At 5,240 mm long and 1,999 mm wide, the 900 provides three rows of seating for six occupants. Its second-row seats can rotate 180 degrees to face the rear passengers when parked. They can also turn 90 degrees toward the doors to make entry and exit easier.

Massage functions are available across all three rows. The front and second-row seats offer 16-point massage, while powered leg rests are provided for the front passenger and middle-row occupants.

Heating and ventilation are available in the first two rows, with heating also provided in the third row.

Passenger amenities include a 30-inch 6K entertainment display, a 31-speaker Harman Kardon sound system with Dolby Atmos and a built-in nine-liter refrigerator. The driver has a 12.66-inch digital instrument cluster and an augmented-reality head-up display.

The SUV uses dual-chamber air suspension with electronically controlled damping. Its ride height can be adjusted, with an access mode that lowers the vehicle by 40 mm when parked.

Driver assistance features use 29 sensors, including LiDAR, cameras and radar. These support adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking, lane assistance, blind-spot monitoring and automatic parking.

GMP also announced revised warranty coverage across the Lynk & Co lineup. The 900, 02 and 08 now carry a five-year or 150,000-km vehicle warranty and an eight-year, unlimited-mileage high-voltage battery warranty.

The 900 additionally comes with two years or 40,000 km of free periodic maintenance and two years of roadside assistance. Existing Lynk & Co plug-in hybrid owners will also receive the upgraded battery warranty.

A launch promotion runs until 31 December 2026. Customers who reserve the 900 with P50,000 may qualify for benefits worth up to P390,000.

The package includes a P230,000 cash discount, powered running boards worth P100,000 and charging equipment and accessories worth P60,000.

The SUV is available for viewing and test drives at authorized Lynk & Co dealerships nationwide. GMP will provide after-sales support through its shared parts warehouse, service training facilities and customer care operations.
