Produced by Geely, Lynk Co on the same platform, Volvo engine, is it elite or waste wood?

Let's first analyze Geely's current sales support, first of all, it must be Geely Automobile, followed by Volvo, and then Lynk & Co and Proton. Geely Automobile itself takes the low-price route, and under the control, profits must be compressed.

Volvo is a successful acquisition by Geely, and of course, Geely's "marketing army" has also contributed to the fact that it has put this declining Nordic aristocracy in a luxurious position. However, Volvo, which focuses on safety, has often been slapped in the face by safety problems recently, and its sales have been greatly affected, and it has also begun to reduce prices**, and the utilization rate of Volvo factories has continued to decline, and may be below the 50% level at present.

Lynk & Co is a high-end series that truly represents the Geely brand, and the sales of the three models have not exceeded 10,000 since they were launched, which is somewhat disappointing. The Proton X70, which was exported as a prototype car with Boyue, caused a lot of repercussions, but the overseas road was not smooth, and in just three days after it was launched, about 20% of customers canceled due to dissatisfaction with the high price.

Looking at the entire Geely, although the overall sales of the whole year still stand in the fourth position in the total sales of car companies in 2018, but in detail, Geely is not as strong as everyone sees. The 2019 Geely new car is highly anticipated, and it will determine whether the 2020 million will be achieved as scheduled.

Recently, Geely released the official teaser image of the first model of the year, which is a new coupe-style SUV, which Geely gave it the nickname FY11 internally. This car is also the essence of Geely, FY11 is a product under the same platform as Lynk & Co, that is to say, it is based on the CMA modular architecture developed by Geely and Volvo, but it is hung with the Geely logo.

Judging from the silhouette of the car, it is another big slip back, which is very sporty and fashionable. Vehicle size: 4605 * 1878 * 1643mm, wheelbase 2700mm.

It is also a crossover coupe SUV, and this size is not comparable with Changan CS85. Geely FY11 looks good, but it's true that I didn't deliberately sing down before it was listed, but over the years, the sales of playing crossover and big slipback seem to have been cursed, but it's not beautiful. For example:

Honda Geshitu, Venucia T90, and even the BMW X6 itself are not eye-catching.

Regarding Geely's FY11, I think that taking the road of coupe SUV is really a very subdivided field, and the demand for a very niche may not become the pillar of Geely's sales in the future.

Geely's FY11, I think the road of coupe SUV is really a very subdivided field, very niche demand, may not become the future sales pillar of Geely, the so-called from the perspective of sales, in fact, I am not optimistic.

Many of Geely's cars are low-end cheap cars, and Volvo and her are not one-day routes.

It's the elite, but the Volvo engine isn't the best.

It is an elite, and Geely has developed well in recent years.

Geely's products are still trustworthy and belong to the elite.

I think the road of coupe SUV is really a very subdivided field, and it is a very niche demand, so it is not good.

It should be very good, after all, the good things of each brand will be better combined.

It feels like it should be an elite, and it's been good in the past few years.

It should be very good.

Volvo is better known for its safety features than engine technology, and neither is the gearbox. So the engine is average.

Geely and Lynk & Co both use Volvo engines.

Volvo's engines are also unreliable.

Geely and Volvo are both part of the Geely Holding Group. Lynk & Co is owned by Geely, Volvo and the Geely Group.

Geely will hold 50%, Volvo will hold 30% and Geely Group will hold 20%.

Geely has also co-financed with Volvo to establish a technology company called "Space-Time Equations".

The company, headquartered in Hangzhou Bay, Ningbo, has a branch in Sweden and has acquired Volvo's $11 billion development of SPA architecture and Volvo cylinder engine technology. To 20 billion yuan to develop the CMA architecture. Geely Holding will fund the research and development of this CMA structure, and the research and development work will be completed by the Geely-Volvo Joint Research and Development Center (CEVT).

Geely's 7DCT technology and next-generation pure electric vehicle platform technology. Then, the space-time equation got good resources and good equipment in hand, and Lynk & Co and Volvo used it. Therefore, it can be considered that Lynk & Co and Volvo have a relatively high level of commonality in terms of platform, architecture and powertrain.

Volvo Drive-E engine family Modular construction, what does it mean? Taking these two figures as an example, it means that the main structure of the engine is the same, and different parts are matched to the engine according to different power requirements and emission standards. For example, what should I do if the T6 engine has a higher power?

Just add a mechanical booster module to the turbocharging base, turbo + mechanical dual supercharging, and achieve a higher power output. Therefore, Lynk & Co uses this one, which is completely in line with the Volvo T series engine. Looking to the future, I think there will be more and more joint research and development of core technologies between independent manufacturers and foreign brands.

Lynk & Co and Volvo are a classic case, in addition, FAW and GM have also begun to share engines. This is of course good for domestic brands, after all, now independent brands have been able to do a good job in design and configuration, if the core large pieces are done well, the competitiveness of the model will be a level. Geely and Volvo engage in CEVT and space-time equations, in the form of cooperation, Geely gives money to people, Volvo gives technical foundation and R&D talents, and milk new equipment to Volvo and Lynk & Co brands.

This kind of good virtuous circle, since it is all under Geely Holdings, is also a problem of power competition in traditional joint ventures.

Therefore, to sum up, the engine jointly developed by Geely and Volvo is still relatively reliable.

Of course, these two companies are also old domestic brands, and their strength is very strong.

Reliable, the engine they jointly developed is powerful and practical.

The power is leveraged. Now 70,000 kilometers, average fuel consumption, no oil leakage, no oil increase, no oil burning. It's just a little louder, maybe the turbocharged engine is loud!

This is naturally reliable, although Volvo is a joint venture brand.

This is definitely reliable, Geely is an experienced car manufacturing company.

Didn't Geely buy Volvo? Is Volvo Geely property? Why did you??

It should go, but it won't be particularly strong.

It's definitely reliable, both companies are strong, and the technology is good.

Joint R&D can reduce capital investment

It's okay, daily use is satisfying.

Safe and reliable, the automatic transmission is a bit fuel-guzzling, it is said.

Anyway, the XC90 I bought feels that this machine is a little louder than the first 1-2 gears, and all other aspects are good, and the maintenance is not as expensive as the trolls say.

It depends on what it's for.

What is joint R&D? Is this what Volvo is like?

Ask here? If only the people here could know, they would have been CEOs.

The engine jointly developed by Geely and Volvo is still relatively reliable.

The Kling brand was officially established in 2016 and is jointly funded by China Geely Holding Group, Geely Automobile Group and Volvo Car Group. The brand is dominated by Volvo Scales and has been developed using a new platform architecture. The platform was jointly developed by Volvo Cars and Geely Automobile.
