Reskinned Lincoln MKX crossover has more luxury, leg room
DETROIT -- The reskinned 2011 Lincoln MKX crossover has a newly sculpted tailgate and new exhaust tips but still uses the split-front waterfall grille and basic body design.
The MKX, unveiled today at the Detroit auto show, comes with a 3.7-liter V-6 engine with 305 hp, a 15 percent boost over the previous generation. It will get an estimated 25 mpg on the highway, Ford Motor Co. says.
Ford has retuned the springs and shocks on the MKX for an improved ride.
The new interior is more luxurious with hand-stitched seams. The second row of seats has more leg room.
The MKX will also feature Ford's new driver connect technology, which uses two liquid crystal display screens showing the speedometer, gasoline gauge and other information. There is an 8-inch touch screen to control audio, navigation, climate control and phone.
All future Lincoln vehicles will have the technology, called "MyLincoln Touch," as standard equipment.
The technology will be featured in MKX advertising. Ford's Jason Mase, product marketing manager for CUV's, says Ford will launch the advertising for the MKX during the 52nd Annual Grammy Awards on Jan. 31.
