Hybrid-specific checks on the Lynk & Co 01

  • Regenerative braking. We test braking feel and look for the uneven wear that hybrid systems can mask.
  • Engine–motor transitions. On the road we check that the switch between petrol and electric drive is smooth and fault-free.
  • High-voltage battery. We read the hybrid battery data for state of health and weak cells, since a tired pack is the costliest part to replace.
  • Battery cooling. Vents and cooling for the high-voltage pack are checked, as blocked cooling shortens battery life.
  • Inverter and converter. Power electronics are scanned for stored faults and overheating history.
