Lincoln MKX for lease
Lincoln MKX Today it begins (Washington, DC) Lincoln, with the first generation MKX, managed to attract nearly 100,000 customers of which 50% were new customers to the brand. After a short survey, new buyers explained by three reasons for their interest: distinction, technology and comfort. Taking advantage of the trend toward luxury goods, Lincoln thus introduces a new vehicle, but also the beginning of his future. Read the Test Drive the Lincoln MKX 2011 by Jacques Deshaies
For in fact, the 2011 MKX shares the same platform as the 2007 figure, but everything else is changing: the front, the sedan, the interior is now light years away from what we knew and To top it all, a new engine.
Unique style Lincoln seeks to change its position in the hierarchy car wanting to compare themselves with banners high end as well as Lexus. To do this, the designers realized that the brand needs a strong visual identity. Directly answered the MKR Concept 2007, the grid separate wing (Split Wing) now finds itself on the MKX. A unique signature, pleasant, which integrates the headlights and releases a new aura of prestige.
See the available versions of the 2011 Lincoln MKX The interior is a giant leap in quality and design and the atmosphere exudes elegance. The dashboard, completely covered with leather is a bit conservative, but the finesse of materials and finishes capture our attention. Lincoln offers two trim and many aluminum finish. The introduction of MyLincoln Touch relegates all similar programs in the Jurassic. Giving access to almost all amenities, eight-inch screen with tabs across the defined commands for navigation, entertainment, telephony and temperature. Two choices: voice dictating what to do to the car via SYNC or peg it on the screen. This is not what will attract customers to showrooms, but it should convince more! Promoting a sound unique in its long association with THX, Lincoln delves deeper sound quality version THXII. The 14-speaker surround sound provide a surround type. THX II incorporates DTS technology that petrifies all distortions. HD radio should be available soon on the MKX following CRTC approval. If this is not enough, there are also two USB ports, Sirius satellite radio and wireless internet available.
The driving position, very high, giving good visibility. The seats remain comfortable even for long trips in the winding roads of Maryland, we were kept in place despite some tight turns. The detection system of objects in the BLIS blind spot mirrors integrated warns of the presence of other cars. In fact, the instrumentation provides so many opportunities of information that two 4.2-inch screens on both sides of the indicator are needed to transmit all. One can even choose what information will be displayed.
The new mechanics Lincoln benefits from the reform to introduce the new Duratec 3.7-liter 305 horsepower. Flexible and discreet, it is almost inaudible. For cons, I expected a bit more punch from him considering his power. The six-speed transmission does a good job, but sanitizes power. Oriented towards fuel economy, it is hard rev up to get the torque of 280 lb-ft. The transmission may be right, because Lincoln advance an average consumption of 10.5 l./100km. The management wants fairly accurate, but still a little disconnected from the road due to electronic assistance. Driving was always a certain feeling of size, but never heavy. However, it remains very manageable. The suspension has a lot of poise, rigidity emerges while remaining comfortable. Dynamics, we can take corners with confidence. The AWD system as standard in Canada, helps a lot in handling and sense of security. In the event a surprise, the powerful brakes take care of everything without flinching.
Conclusion Lincoln we made a promise to change, to do everything better. If I go to the 2011 MKX, they will achieve their goal. In addition, no fewer than six other new features are expected over the next four years. I look forward to that for the collective imagination of future generations, is no longer synonymous with Lincoln Continental and Town Car, but vehicle dynamics.
