200,000 Deliveries In, Is the Lynk & Co 08 the Premium Plug-in Hybrid SUV to Beat?
Sep 28, 2026
Hangzhou, China, September 28, 2026 -- According to figures released by global premium automotive brand Lynk & Co, its premium plug-in hybrid SUV, the Lynk & Co 08, has surpassed 200,000 cumulative deliveries worldwide. Since its launch in September 2023, the model has expanded to more than 30 countries and regions across Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America and North Africa. The delivery milestone demonstrates the model’s growing market presence, but its product specifications and verified achievements provide a clearer explanation of how it reached this scale.
Built on the CMA Evo architecture, Lynk & Co 08 features the EM-P Super Hybrid system, combining a 1.5-litre turbocharged engine, dual electric motors, a three-speed DHT Evo transmission and a 39.6 kWh battery. The system produces 350 horsepower and 580 Nm of torque, enabling acceleration from zero to 100 km/h in 6.75 seconds. Lynk & Co 08 offers a WLTC pure-electric range of 200 kilometres and a total WLTC range of 1,100 kilometres, while charging from 30 to 80 percent takes 28 minutes. This allows the model to cover many daily journeys on electric power while retaining the flexibility needed for intercity and long-distance travel, a particularly relevant combination in EM markets with varying levels of charging infrastructure.
Lynk & Co 08 has also taken its range performance beyond the specification sheet. The model travelled 1,813 kilometres between Xining and Hami in China without refuelling or recharging, setting a Guinness World Record for the longest distance driven by a plug-in hybrid SUV without an energy top-up. It later completed 293 kilometres in pure-electric mode in Toluca, Mexico, setting another record for pure-electric range in its class. The two records provide tangible evidence of the model’s long-distance flexibility and electric capability.
Safety and reliability add another layer to the product case. Lynk & Co 08 received a five-star Euro NCAP rating and achieved the highest overall score among the plug-in hybrid vehicles tested in 2025. It is equipped with seven airbags and more than 20 active safety functions, while high-strength steel and aluminium alloy account for 75 percent of its body structure. The model has also completed more than 7,000 kilometres in 14 days on an expedition to the Arctic Circle, encountering temperatures as low as -30°C. As the official expedition vehicle for the QUEST DAKAR 2026 Rally, it later crossed three African countries and covered 3,200 kilometres of desert terrain in temperatures reaching 41°C. These journeys demonstrate how Lynk & Co 08 performs across long distances, extreme temperatures and demanding road conditions.
Alongside its performance, safety and reliability, Lynk & Co 08 supports its premium positioning with features including Nappa leather seats, front-seat heating, ventilation and massage, three-zone climate control, a 15.4-inch central display and a 23-speaker, 1,600-watt Harman Kardon audio system. More than 90 percent acoustic-material coverage and 160 noise, vibration and harshness optimisations further improve cabin refinement. Lynk & Co 08 approaches value as a complete product experience, bringing together substantial electric range, strong performance, internationally recognised safety, premium comfort and proven durability. Supported by two Guinness World Records, demanding environmental validation and 200,000 global deliveries, the model has built a credible case as one of the strongest choices in the premium plug-in hybrid SUV market.
