Lynk & Co 08 Sets Guinness World Record: 293 km EV Range, Redefining Global Plug-in Hybrid SUV Standards

Recently, the Lynk & Co 08 set a new Guinness World Record at the Toluca Circuit in Mexico, achieving a continuous all-electric range of 293 kilometers—certified as the "Longest All-Electric Range by a Production Plug-in Hybrid SUV." The test simulated urban and suburban driving conditions with an average speed of 50–60 km/h and was conducted under official supervision throughout. This exceptional range is enabled by a high-energy-density battery pack, an underbody liquid-cooled thermal management system, and PTC low-temperature heating technology, ensuring efficient and stable battery performance. The vehicle also supports fast charging, replenishing from 30% to 80% in just 30 minutes. In terms of performance, the Lynk & Co 08 is powered by a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine paired with a high-performance electric drive system, delivering a combined output of 346 horsepower. It features an intelligent all-wheel-drive system that dynamically distributes power between the front and rear axles, balancing performance and handling.
