Lynk & Co has recorded explosive growth in Russia, with sales increasing nearly 15 times in the first quarter of 2026. According to Avtostat, a total of 942 vehicles were registered between January and March, compared to just 62 units during the same period last year.
The surge is almost entirely driven by one model—the flagship Lynk & Co 900. This large hybrid SUV accounted for 926 units, representing a dominant 98.5% share of the brand’s total sales in the country. Effectively, the model has single-handedly elevated the brand’s presence in the Russian market.
Regionally, Moscow emerged as the largest market, with 463 vehicles sold—nearly half of total registrations. The surrounding Moscow region contributed an additional 133 units, while St. Petersburg and the Leningrad region together accounted for 67 vehicles.
From a product standpoint, the Lynk & Co 900 is positioned as a full-size premium crossover, measuring 5,240 mm in length with a substantial 3,160 mm wheelbase. Depending on the configuration, its hybrid powertrain delivers between 720 hp and 857 hp, placing it among the most powerful vehicles in its segment.
The data highlights how a single high-impact product can significantly reshape brand performance in a competitive market, particularly when aligned with demand for high-performance hybrid SUVs.
