More and more the “eyes” of the media are looking to Ford Motor Company, waiting for their next move. This is something that the company has yet to disappoint. Lincoln’s MKZ is one of the cars transformed by the reborn Ford back in 2007. The car is still bringing loyal luxury buyers to the domestic showroom. Lincoln is very close to removing the “affordable luxury” tag from their name plate and replacing it with “innovative luxury.” The Updates Overall the car hasn’t changed that much however few additions have been made in safety and technology. Lincoln has added the BLIS (Blind Spot Information System) system with cross traffic alert, rain sensing windshield wipers, and adaptive HID headlamps. With the new state of the art technology it’s sure to bring customers into the dealerships. Another update is the available rear view camera which goes along side the safety and technology as well as Ford’s Capless Fuel Filler. Performance The Lincoln MKZ’s performance is an par with it’s class. The 3.5L V6 produces 263 horsepower and 249 ft-lbs of torque while being mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission but the big one is that it runs on 87 octane. For the fuel woes of the our current time that’s a big help even if you are buying a luxury vehicle. Another great thing about the MKZ is the available Intelligent AWD system. This system allows drivers to improve their driving situations in all climates. Technology Now this is what separates Lincoln MKZ from the competition, it’s technology. The Sync system has been updated to include traffic, directions, and information services. Sync is a fully customizable system that allows users to bluetooth phones and digital media players, and operate them by voice commands. This along with the navigation system with Sirius Travel Link and the THX II sound system, keep the Lincoln MKZ in the mind of buyers when looking for a new luxury vehicle. Lincoln has won several awards ranging from best interior to best initial quality with all good reason. This is a solid American luxury car that gives you the comfort of a luxury car and the connectivity that is unsurpassed by anyone in the industry of it’s class. Lincoln has improved tremendously over the years and the MKZ is the manifested proof.
