Vehicle Highlights
Lincoln's first car-type SUV is a five-passenger wagon that shares its basic design and powertrain with the 2007 Ford Edge. The MKX has different styling, however, and comes with such features as leather upholstery, which is optional on the Edge, and with wood interior trim, which is unavailable on the Edge. MKX offers front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive without low-range gearing. The sole powertrain is a 265-hp V6 and 6-speed automatic transmission. ABS, an antiskid system with rollover sensors, and 18-inch wheels are standard. Front side airbags and curtain side airbags with rollover deployment are also standard. Options include a navigation system, DVD entertainment, and a panoramic glass roof with integrated sunroof. Also available are heated and cooled front seats, heated rear seats, and steering-linked headlights.
