2009 Lincoln MKS
Posted by admin on 15 Dec 2008
The Lincoln MKS has been on the market for a few years and has added a more reasonably sized sedan to the Lincoln brand. Mercury’s Lincoln brand has always been known for luxury with its Lincoln Town Car and Lincoln Navigator so the introduction of the Lincoln MKS has been a good addition.
You can expect to get a lot of perks with this sedan as they have used the latest technology in this car. The new feature that everyone wants to tout is the adaptive head lights. They help as you are going down the road. These headlamps will follow the road, making it better to see around curves. The new MKS is supposed to have Sirius Satellite Radio with a travel link. The Sirius Travel Link is set to be an integral part of the vehicle. This should include all the great options that you get with their radio system such as weather updates. If you live in larger cities you can get traffic reports and during the winter ski reports. These have been joined now with movies, restaurants and fuel prices displayed on the inboard screen. You will also have a detailed navigation system in the MKS sedan.
They have the technology now to put an adaptive cruise control on the vehicle. This marvelous invention allows for safer driving practices with the touch of a button. The car will read the road and traffic conditions around the vehicle and it will adjust accordingly. A new generation of smarter cars is coming and the Lincoln MKS is going to be a part of the coming generation.
The seats that wrap around your body for that ultimate comfortable feel are made of leather, and you can get the seats with a seat warmer. Lincoln has gone to great lengths to procure the best leather possible and found it in Scotland. The center console has an armrest so that both driver and passenger can relax. The back seat has a fold down armrest that can be stowed if you need more seating.
You can get the Lincoln MKS with a sunroof that allows even your passengers in the back seat to enjoy the outdoor scenery. This is something that has been on the Lincoln MKS and Lincoln MKZ since they were first introduced as well. The Lincoln MKS is definitely designed to be a luxury car.
The vehicle comes with a 3.7 liter engine which means a V6 and they are planning to offer a turbo charged car later on. This size engine will produce average results where fuel economy is concerned. It is expected to be 17 miles per gallon in the city and 24 mile per gallon on the highway. This car isn’t going to be inexpensive as it runs around 37,000 dollars as a base price. However, with all the upgraded features it may be worth it.
