Lincoln Cars News

Lincoln can really boast over its EcoBoost trim to European and Japanese opponents.

The Lincoln MKT and Ford Flex can certainly be considered as relatives, both being powered by direct-injection 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged V6 which implies already great possibilities. Both Flex and MKT make off to 60 mph in just 6 seconds, giving total 355-hp and 350 ft-lbs of torque. It should be noted that this V-8 like engine is more likely to produce V6-like 16-mpg city and 22-mpg highway gas mileage. Read more

Luxury cars can change a lot in seven years, with some evolving faster than others. When the MKZ first arrived back in 2006 as the Zephyr, it represented a worthy contender to the likes of the then current Lexus ES and Infiniti I30.

At the back changes are more subtle, the almost full-width taillights now incorporate LEDs and there’s a back up camera system available as an option. The rest of the car’s silhouette is as familiar as the Manhattan skyline, sensibly proportioned, if perhaps a bit angular compared to newer offerings, but on the flipside, it’s also less generic. Other updates include revised side mirrors that incorporate blind spot monitoring and an optional Sport Appearance package that adds a darker toned grille. Read more
