Autoblog Argentina has taken the 2026 Lynk & Co 08 for a week of testing in Bahía Blanca, Buenos Aires Province. The outlet’s first report gives the SUV’s specifications and local pricing; its full review is scheduled for the following week.
The 08 is a plug-in hybrid combining a 1.5-liter turbocharged gasoline engine with an electric motor and a 39.6-kWh battery. The stated combined output is 345 hp and 580 Nm. Lynk & Co quotes an electric-only range of 200 km and a total range of 1,100 km, both measured on the WLTC cycle.
In Argentina, the 08 went on sale in August with a list price of $63,200. The report says it competes while paying the 35% import duty applied to models brought in from outside the region, rather than relying on the government’s duty-free import quota. Lynk & Co, part of Geely Group, is pursuing a premium position in the market. The article also notes that the brand recently expanded its local range with the higher-end 900; other models in the lineup are listed between $32,800 and $37,900.
