The MKX shows Lincoln heritage in ease of use. One doesn't have to climb in, familiarization with operating controls is quick, and driving characteristics are predictable. For many, the MKX is just the right blend between a luxury sedan and a full-size luxury SUV such as the Navigator.
Introduced for the 2007 model year, the Lincoln MKX has mostly added new convenience features since then. 2008 brought Sync, a system developed with Microsoft to integrate cell phones and media players through Bluetooth technology and a USB interface.
For 2009, Lincoln MKX adds 911 Assist to Sync, which can directly contact local emergency personnel if an airbag deploys or if the fuel shutoff is activated; and Vehicle Health Report (VHR), which allows customers to monitor more than two dozen vehicle systems and, when appropriate, schedule service on-line. Also new for 2009 is a next-generation navigation system that includes Sirius Travel Link and THX II Certified Audio.
The Lincoln MKX comes with front-wheel drive (FWD) or all-wheel drive (AWD). MKX AWD also comes with slightly quicker gearing and larger front brakes. Next Page
