2016 Lincoln MKX is a bit different from today’s MK because this new version has more muscle and even lithe body. It is featured by well tapered roofline and also stylish long fender arches. Moreover, the company will keep its trademark which is the split grille as the complement for the thin and horizontal slats flow to the excellent headlight units and also LED sign lights. The concept of this 2016 Lincoln MKX is the full-width taillight that has ultra-thin LED rear lighting and there is integrated pseudo spoiler to the liftgate below the window. It is based upon the Ford Escape but it is a bit various. The company also offers the car with 21 inches of wheel. Speaking about the cabin, the company will give increased knobs and buttons by utilizing less capacitive touch to control. We do hope that the car will be featured with MyLincoln Touch or QNX-based infotainment system for 2016 Lincoln MKX.

The improvement around the technical detail is the two engine options. First, it goes with turbocharged EcoBoost 4-cylinder engine 2.3 liter to generate the power for about 285hp and the second is V6 engine 3.7 liter to generate 300hp and 280 pound-feet of torque in 2016 Lincoln MKX. Moreover, the standard version is coming up with front-wheel drive system but all-wheel drive is optional. Those engines are paired to 6-speed auto transmission. At this time, the company is still developing about nine and ten speed automatic transmission which means if they could deal with those transmissions perhaps they will not use the six-speed auto transmission anymore.
