The economic instability has been the culprit so that Lynk & Co, together with Volvo, has decided to delay the production of its models on European soil

Lynk & Co stops the arrival of its models at the Volvo plant in Belgium

Lynk & Co 02

Thanks to the good management of Geely strong>, Volvo has reached the point where it is today. Without this evolution, they could never have created Lynk & Co , a new global semi-premium firm. Thanks to the technology and quality of the Swedish firm and the money of its parent, it is called to succeed. The Old Continent is one of the markets that has in mind and to assault it with guarantees of success, will manufacture its models in Belgium.

For some months we know that the factory that Volvo has in Ghent (Belgium) will be in charge of manufacturing the new Lynk & Co for Europe. The start of production was scheduled for the end of next year, however, problems have arisen that have disrupted them. Therefore, those responsible for the brand have not yet been able to put a specific date on the table, although their arrival will be given, that's for sure.

Why has Lynk & Co delayed production in Europe?

According to those responsible for Lynk & Co and Volvo , the main reason to stop your plans has to do with the economy . The situation that exists in Europe is complex, because the economies of the main countries of the Euro zone do not grow at the expected pace. This being so, assaulting a doubtful market with little-known models and "relatively" high prices may slow down your sales.

This way, Volvo has decided to put the production of the Lynk & Co models on stand-by. Even so, the arrival of the Chinese brand has not been canceled, since the investment has been executed and the lines are ready. In any case, as the models of the Chinese brand are the same as those of the Swedish firm, the productive capacity will be exploited by the second.

Still, Volvo and Geely keep an ace up their sleeve with Lynk & Co , as their models will be hybrid and electric. In this way, they will be able to successfully assault a market that is changing by leaps and bounds. However, the workers Geely hired to cover the productive needs of Lynk & Co will remain in their jobs. Meanwhile, we will have to wait for the first units to arrive, since in China they have been commercialized for a year.
