2017 Lincoln MKZ

[FiestaST]

I thought lets post a bit about Lincoln; as you aware they are a division of Ford. Positioned more upmarket.

This is the new Lincoln MKZ...looks wise it's kinda bland....I see some 300C in there.

"An all-new, Lincoln-exclusive 3.0-liter GTDI V6 leads available engine choices for the new Lincoln MKZ. When paired with an intelligent all-wheel-drive system, the twin-turbocharged engine produces 400 horsepower and 400 lb.-ft. of torque for effortless performance and refinement."

That sounds good~ 298kw/542nm.

Looks are subjective hey...I'm not saying it's ugly...it has good detailing it just looks "bland" imo.

Of course Lincoln in the States main target market are the older folks.

Beautiful car! If you compare this to a Lincoln of the late 80's it becomes clear how quickly they took to European styling. Pity we will never get these in SA. It looks very good.

300kw TDI? That's impressive.

Lol no man...it's a turbo petrol.

You know how Americans hardly have much interest in diesel & now after #dieselgate even less so

GTDI is EcoBoost.

Wtf. OK then.

Kind of like the muscly look, but the nose is uninspiring.

I want to like it but the dimensions seems a bit off. Not drop dead gorgeous but it looks much better than the Lincolns of old.

Looks like a Jag/Audi - I kinda like it though.
