2007 Lincoln MKX Auto Show Photo

Ford aims to make a big splash in the burgeoning crossover utility market with three brands selling this same unibody front/all-wheel-drive tall wagons. Lincoln's version -- first shown at the 2006 Detroit Auto Show -- the MKX (say Mark X) will be the flagship. Styling and feature content distinguish the Lincoln from its Ford Edge sister ship and the more distantly related Mazda CX-7. The 2007 Lincoln MKX's grille recalls the '63 Continental's, and the headlamps swivel to illuminate corners. The front and rear seats can be heated and cooled. The 250-horsepower V-6 engine and a six-speed automatic are shared with the Ford (a turbo four powers the Mazda). AdvanceTrac stability control with rollover prevention promises to keep the shiny side up. Sales begin late this year.
