The Lynk & Co 02 E-SUV sets a new safety benchmark after receiving a prestigious 5-star rating from the Euro New Car Assessment Program (NCAP). This top-tier designation, granted by the world-renowned independent safety organization, confirms the 02 E-SUV as the safest vehicle in its class tested in 2025 within Euro NCAP's current evaluation cycle.

The 02 E-SUV's exceptional performance was evident across all assessment categories, with a particularly remarkable 89% for Safety Assist. This score is not only outstanding but also marks the highest ever recorded by Euro NCAP for Safety Assist in its current evaluation cycle, underscoring Lynk & Co's commitment to cutting-edge safety technology.

Beyond its groundbreaking Safety Assist score, the 02 E-SUV demonstrated superior protection in critical areas:

Adult Occupant Protection: 90%; Child Occupant Protection: 87%; Vulnerable Road User Protection: 83%

"Safety has always been a core pillar of our product strategy, and with the Lynk & Co 02, we've raised the bar for ourselves—and for the entire segment," stated David Green, Vice President of Product & Strategy at Lynk & Co International. "Achieving the highest Euro NCAP rating ever recorded for a compact SUV is a signal of where we're headed. As we continue to grow our portfolio, this recognition reinforces our commitment to building vehicles that are not only innovative and sustainable, but also among the safest on the road. It sets the tone for what customers can expect from Lynk & Co – now and in the future."

The 02 E-SUV now proudly joins its sibling, the 01 PHEV, in the Lynk & Co family of new energy vehicles to achieve full marks for safety from Euro NCAP. This consistent performance across its lineup highlights the brand's dedication to combining innovative design, real-world sustainability, and advanced technology.

For Lynk & Co, this significant recognition validates their philosophy of creating cars with integrity and placing real-world experiences at the forefront of road safety. Whether navigating the bustling streets of Quezon City or embarking on open-road adventures, the 02 E-SUV is meticulously designed and engineered to ensure the utmost safety for its occupants and those around them.

The Lynk & Co 02 E-SUV is available across 22 markets in Europe, and now in the Philippines through United Asia Automotive Group Inc. (UAAGI); setting a new benchmark for safety in the compact SUV segment and offering peace of mind to drivers worldwide.
