Lynk & Co 01 was formerly named Geely CX11. First revealed online in October 2016,[3] it went on sale on August 4, 2017.[4] The PHEV version went out for the market on 7 July 2018, as the very first luxury hybrid SUV produced by Lynk & Co. The electric recharge mileage of it reaches 51 kilometers.[5]

In 2016 Geely uncovered a new exclusive brand temporarily named L Brand. The product line included CX11 (compact SUV, currently Lynk & Co 01), CC11 (crossover SUV, currently Lynk & Co 02), CS11 (sedan, currently Lynk & Co 03) and CH11 (hatchback).

The Speech Recognition System is able to take part in media, navigation system, phone and air conditioning.[7]
The Lynk & Co 01 is based on the Compact Modular Architecture platform, which also underpins the Volvo XC40. The 01 will share much of its components with the XC40, including its electrical architecture, engines and safety systems.[8]
The car is controlled by a shared digital key that can allow owners to provide access to other Lynk & Co cars.[9] The car is 453 cm (178.3 in) long and will initially be powered by a 1.5-litre 3-cylinder and a 2.0-litre 4-cylinder petrol engines from Volvo. Engines will be mated to a manual gearbox or seven-speed automatic.[10]
A facelift was launched for the 2021 model year and the launch of the European market. For the European market, there will be no trim levels with the Lynk & Co 01 with the only options being the powertrain and paint color. Standard equipment for the 01 offered in Europe includes a large central touchscreen, sat-nav, a social media camera, and over-the-air updates for the in-car tech systems.[11]
