Search for the official website Lynk & Co China often ends up on fake mirrors or outdated pages - especially if you're looking for current prices on models 01 EM-P, 06 EM-P or 09 for export. The main problem: the brand is actively blocking access to the Chinese version of the site (lynkco.cn) for IP requests from abroad, and the global domain (lynkco.com) does not display the full range and local promotions. To avoid fraudulent schemes involving prepayment or the purchase of “gray” cars, first check three key signs of the legitimacy of the resource.

In 2026 Lynk & Co changed the structure of official dealership centers in China, transferring part of sales to online format through the platform Geely Auto Group. This means that even on a legitimate site, prices may differ from actual prices due to regional subsidies (for example, in Shanghai or Guangzhou). Below are step-by-step instructions on how to distinguish an official resource from phishing, where to find current dealer contacts and what documents to request before paying.

The main domain for the Chinese market is https://www.lynkco.cn, but it automatically redirects users from other countries to the global version (lynkco.com). To bypass the blocking, use one of the proven methods:

  • 🌐 VPN with Chinese IP: Connect via a server in Beijing or Shanghai (we recommend ExpressVPN or Astrill). After this, the site will open in Chinese with a full catalog of models and local prices.
  • 🔍 Search via Baidu: Enter your request (Lynk official website) in the Chinese search engine. The first 3 results usually lead to legitimate pages.
  • 📱 Mobile application: Download Lynk & Co App from Chinese App Store (Chinese Apple ID required) or via APK file from the website apkpure.com. The application shows current promotions and dealer contacts.

If the site has opened, but you see a limited range (for example, only Lynk & Co 01 without electrical modifications), which means you have been redirected to the international version. In this case:

  1. Check the URL in the address bar - it must end with .cn, not on .com.
  2. Click on the language icon in the top right corner and select .
  3. If the "Models" section () contains less than 5 items, this is not an official Chinese site.
💡

Use a browser Chrome with automatic page translation. In the translation settings, add Chinese to avoid distortions of technical terms (for example, - "fully electric").

Signs of a fraudulent site: how not to lose money

In 2023–2026, cases of phishing under the guise of “official Lynk & Co dealers in China” became more frequent. Fraudsters create copies of the site with domains like lynk-co.cn or lynkco-china.com, where they offer “exclusive discounts” on car exports. You can distinguish a fake by 5 key features:

Sign Official website Scam site
Domain name lynkco.cn or geely.com/lynkco Contains hyphens, numbers, or postfixes (-official, -china)
Payment methods Only via bank transfer to account Geely Auto Group with confirmation of the contract Accept cryptocurrency, Western Union or Aliexpress guarantor
Dealer contacts Phone number in +86 format, address indicating the province (for example, - Hangzhou, Zhejiang) General email type sales@lynk-co.cn without reference to region
Car prices Listed in CNY marked "" (from...) and a link to regional subsidies Fixed prices in dollars without mention of taxes
⚠️ Attention: If a site requires an advance payment of more than 10% of the cost of the car for “reservation” or “opening an export license”, this is 100% fraudulent. Official dealers Lynk & Co work according to the full payment scheme only after signing the contract and checking the VIN.

An additional way to check is to request a scan from the “dealer” (business licenses). The document must contain:

  • 📄 Company name with mention Geely or Lynk & Co.
  • 📍 Address that matches the data on the website.
  • 🔢 Unique registration number ( 91 for enterprises).

There will be 7 models on the Chinese market in 2026 Lynk & Co, of which only 3 are officially exported to Europe and Asia. Below is the current table with prices (in CNY), engine types and features that are not listed on the global website:

  • 🔋 Long Range: versions with a larger battery (up to 700 km on one charge for 05).

How to check the package contents on a Chinese website?

On the model page, click on the tab (Configuration). From the drop down menu select (Detailed parameters) - all options are listed there, including those that are not available on export versions (for example, Nappa leather seats or 360° cameras with night vision).
