Drive It. Use It. But You Can't Own It
autoX|January 2017

Volvo and Geely’s new sub-brand, Lynk & Co, is a manufacturer that may not actually want you to buy its vehicles. It’s a carmaker, then, that takes a completely different view of the automotive sector.

Drive It. Use It. But You Can't Own It

“We’re an automotive manufacturer that doesn’t even try to persuade you to buy our vehicles. Think about that.” This is how Lynk & Co – the all-new brand by Geely and Volvo – likes to market itself. You have to take that statement with a pinch of salt obviously. But, at the same time, we can’t deny that the firm’s business strategy makes us quite curious. And, once you go through its official website – which, graphically, looks quite elegant – the eagerness to know more only increases further.
