The 535ps Lynk & Co 03 Cyan Concept has lapped the Nürburgring Nordschleife in 7 minutes and 20.143 seconds, averaging 170.4 km/h (105.8mph).
The lap time is three seconds faster than the record for four-door cars, formerly held by Jaguar, and 25 seconds faster than the record for front-wheel-drive cars, formerly held by Renault.
“While our main purpose for the many laps on the Nürburgring Nordschleife is development, the records that we broke are a true testament to the potential and capabilities of the Lynk & Co platform,” said Henrik Fries, head of automotive R&D at Cyan Racing.
