On August 5th, 2024, Lynk & Co announced that its updated Lynk & Co 08 EM-P plug-in hybrid SUV will launch on August 8th in China.

The company official has revealed some details about the vehicle configuration upgrade, including the addition of sentinel mode, rhythmic ambient lights, water ingress monitoring, and mobile phone NFC key.

08 EM-P, positioned as a medium-sized SUV, was first launched in September 2023. The current 08 EM-P on sale has six trims offering CLTC cruising ranges of 120 km, 220 km, and 245 km, with a price range of CNY 195,800 - 288,000 (US$ 27,500 - 40,400). The comprehensive range is 1,200 km.

From the official image, the appearance of the 08 EM-P is consistent with that of the current model, adopting a black and forest green two-tone body, the "Dawn Light" daytime running lights, aluminium alloy rims, and hidden door handles.

Additionally, a new white paint is expected to be added and the body size of the vehicle is not expected to change form 4820 mm length, 1915 mm width, 1685 mm height, and a wheelbase of 2848 mm.

The interior is expected to also remain largely the same, with mainly configuration updates. Referring to the current model, the cockpit features a 12.3-inch full LCD instrument panel, a 15.4-inch floating centre
control screen, and a HUD, coupled with the Flyme Auto cockpit system, powered by two Dragon Eagle-1 automotive-grade 7-nanometer cockpit chips.

Furthermore, previously exposed information indicated that the updated 08 EM-P may be equipped with the same central control screen and sun visor as that of the 07 EM-P, with an additional power supply in the trunk and optional 20-inch rims. However, this has not been confirmed officially.
