Lynk & Co 03 Cyan Concept: Here's This Mobility Company's 528-HP Racer for the Road-September 2024

When it comes to race cars for the road, most think of the usual suspects: the Honda, Ford and Subaru types with , supercar makers offering for track cars, and . What we don’t often think of is , but maybe that should change.

Cyan Racing its newest vehicle with the company ,which is the turbocharged,front-wheel-driveLynk & Co 03 Cyan Conceptthat makes a rated 528 horsepowerand is based off of the Cyan team’s FIA World Touring Car Cuprace car that .

The road concept, according to the Cyan Racing press release, makes its 528 HPand 372 lb-ft of torquefrom a turbocharged four-cylinder engine. That engine is mated to a six-speed sequential transmissionwith paddle shifters,and sends its power to the 20-inch wheelson the frontof the car. The announcement said the goal is to make the concept perform in any conditions—road and otherwise—andthat development is currently underway with testing on roads in Spain.

It also looks sweet, aside from Lynk & Co’s signature diagonal headlights that kind of look like what happens .

The car is just a concept, of course, and the press release said it’s largely the creation of the same team that built the and concept cars from years back.It also said the 03 concept could become an actual customer offering through Lynk & Co, someday, where the team “bring[s] what [it] learn[s] on the track to the road.”That part is key, since this year will be the first with Cyan Racing’s four 03 race carson track.

But for now, the road version of the car is just a development tool and a pretty idea to be paraded around by roughly 500 horses in cotton-candy blue.

Cyan Racing the Volvo and Polestar team,but that the honor would now go to Volvo’s new, mysterious sibling launched by both companies’ parent organization, Chinese automaker Geely, .Thus, the Lynk & Co 03 race car came to be and spurred a road concept of its own.

Lynk & Co has a of ideas about vehicle ownership and its approach to selling cars according to those ideas, but it that we learned motorsports and racing-inspired vehicles were in that mix. But it’s a welcome move nonetheless, even if it isn’t quite our norm yet.
