Lynk & Co, a mid-range car brand spawned out of Geely’s takeover of Volvo Cars, launched a mid-size SUV to take on bestselling electric vehicle models assembled by Tesla and Chinese start-up NIO.

The Chinese-Swedish carmaker, which is well-established in European markets like Germany, Denmark and Belgium, said it was expanding in the Middle East, with plans to deliver cars in Kuwait and Saudi Arabia this quarter. It will also expand into other Asian markets “in due course”.
