You people who are leaving all these negative comments don't know what you're even talking about. It's 60,000 grand because it has features that fly in the face of those crappy German automakers. It comes with Massaging seats, 22-way powered seats which is better than any German car manufacturer, a leather wrapped dash board, real wood and metal trim, the best and most superb sound system on the market, adaptive cruise control, lane keep assists, a hands free lift gate, a strong turbo charged engine, a 360 degree camera system, the car can park itself, and best of all everyone knows that Lincoln has the best heritage and coolest name plate of all time. Cars that many of our great celebrities and Presidents rode in with style. I drive a new Lincoln and everyone that gets in it compliments me on how cool and futuristic the push button shifter and the dash layout is. Lincoln is trying to be a lot different than the automakers who cars are all the same and I think they're doing a great job
Robert Stutts although i agree with most of what you said pricing however is still a good $8,500-10,000 over priced. i have already stated in another ford product the Escape that Ford is charging way too much on their best sellers and its not fair you pay the same amount for a loaded escape that you do for a basically loaded Edge and that shouldn't be.. lincoln should continue to be the vaule and not the wannabe
I agree, it also have the choice of different color you can choose to be dim light inside which it is cool. I can even download a pic of my son into the screen. I am really please with my 2016 mkx Black Label.
technically that's a lot of money since they don't really make cars to last anymore. by the time you pay it off, it wouldn't have been worth it for the troubles it will have.
I just bought a 2016 Lincoln MKX on Monday. It had 60,000 miles on it and looks brand new. It's easily the nicest vehicle I've had and I've had some smoking rides. Love this SUV. Best investment I've ever made! And never had to pay full price and easily competes with 2022 models....
i would afraid the passenger, while trying to change a radio station, accidentally changed the gear selection. That piece of car control should be separated and with more obvious user interface that says "Don't touch".
This guy was kinda nit picking for no reason. The interior is nice while being functional & way to use & understand. While the buttons may look "cheap" even though they don't, that just means it's probably less costly to replace if the lettering fades over time &/or if the backlight for that button ever goes out
ya but that youtube revenue drought is going on so can't blame them. However, they could just have a minute long video of them driving and the end or pov of a drive.
I bought a 2016 Reserve last year used and I have a couple thoughts. He was 100% right about the stereo. I have the base and it stinks. As for the engine. He way undersold it. The 2.7 TT has a ton of low end torque and is really pushes this car hard into speeds that can get you in some real trouble in a real hurry. Very happy with it. MAybe I'll look into upgrading that stereo.
I like it, yes it's about 5k too expensive and I would go with the gloss wood trim, the open pore wood looks plasticy.... Other than that it's nice and looks much better than the new RX.
go buy a 2005 Chevy Equinox has the same exact dashboard styling and has a way more comfortable rear seat than this up right piece of shit and if you think this is a nice car you're out of your mind!
It needs a least 5in more on seat to go back more I’m 6 ft tall and the seat doesn’t go back much when stepping on the gas or the Brake pedal it sucks.
Those back seats recline and I tried them today. Very comfortable. VERY. Been reading your blasts of this vehicle, which I'm likely about to buy. Have you been in one? Driven one? How about you check out the specs on this car and compare it legitimately to others at higher prices for it's features. I have. You tout a Chevy Equinox car over this? This car has the quietest cabin, has sport or comfort suspension, 335 horses with the 2.7 Ecoboost, WHICH I tried out and loved. The maxed out version has some features I have no interest in, but they compare to it's rivals, whose upgrades also cost a premium price. You can be the juiciest peach on the tree and there will always be somebody who doesn't like peaches. I truly like this car.
This doesn't hold a candle to the Mercedes GLC. For $61,000 you're looking at a loaded GLC300 with awd. It's crazy that Lincoln thinks this is a competitive vehicle at this price. I don't know why Lincoln and Acura refuse to build true luxury cars. They definitely CAN, they just WILL NOT. They need to fire the bean counters.
+Eric Fortune nope that's how it sounds at production level. The stereo is actually not all that. Good but the extra cost factor is way high. Car should be priced mid to high 40s imo.
Eric Fortune Estrogen, and a little too much botox too. I wouldn't compare the MKX to that new bloated minivan, although it IS packed with tech now. as for the enclave, it's pretty and has a solid base for a nice car, but suffers from, like you said, GM quality issues
just bought one for 38,000 out the door with 24k on it....wow,, my sticker was 64500, make sure to get the later year model with the sync 3. better than lexus, acura, toyota hilander, mercedes, even the rovers, i drove them all and this car won. i will never buy another car without push buttons for gear shift. oh, they have to make them big son you dont make a mistake....but dont worry ig you do hit the button a little early, , i let my coast bak in reverse, while still rolling, push d or S if feeling cocky and no grinding of gears...perfect and i dare any of above to meet me at the line, get the AWD with the turbo and you will blow anything in its class away...trust me, do not listen to any of those vs reviews ....acura, lexus sucks.....really no info touch screen acura and lexus????.......love my mkx.
@@songbird372p7 yes I'm Still Loving It! Just a great ride, but you've got to have that setting correct on the suspension or it's real floaties search my videos I think I did a video on exactly the setting you have to be in, you can separately set your suspension and then another one on handling, I think I have my suspension on sport and my handling on regular. That's real important on these cars on this year! Probably same on the Nautilus. Most cars don't do that which I love that you can separate the handling from the suspension, and have different modes
my wife and I loved the previous 2011-2015 mkx but we didn't like the 2016 mkx at all. there wasn't anything we liked on or about this car. this car is very small inside and uncomfortable.2016 MKX has a big ugly dashboard and the radio area in this car sits terribly high, seats are hard and narrow. We are no longer buying anymore Lincoln mkx. we still have the wonderful luxury 2011 MKX and will be getting the Lexus RS350 next. we wanted to stay with Lincoln MKX but Lincoln change the previous style to this ugly uncomfortable terrible style.
You're kidding. Right? This is "ugly" so you're going to buy a Lexus, with the hideous grill it has? I understand Lexus quality. I am in an '08 Lexus GS, (my 2nd) ...still,...because I've been waiting ...and waiting...and waiting....for Lexus to improve their hideous grill, so I could buy another, but all they did was make it worse. I've never had a day's problem with my Lexus. But, they drove me away with that grill. It's a deal breaker and I'm tired of waiting. I test drove the MKX today, and it was fantastic! Great acceleration, fantastic seats and what do you want a dash to do? "Less is more" with design lines, which Lexus should go back to. I find the MKX with the 2.7 Ecoboost elegant, comfortable and very enjoyable to drive. 335 horses! Most quiet cabin!
It is crazy to make people pay $2000 for an engine. It comes with one already. A good one. Right? Or it wouldn't be in a Lincoln. And if it gets the same MPG as the other 'good one', it can't be too innovative or special. Same with the packaged stereo.
wiibaron ??? of course the 2000$ engine is better. you're saying.just becuase it gets the same mpg then it must be equal to one another? 2000$ is actually a STEAL for a TWIN TURBO V6!! The v6 3.7 base is a good engine, but the 2.7 twin turbo has much more *low end* tourque and more hp....so yea $2000 is very justifiable...considering in Rival vehicles (Mercedes SUVS, etc) you're paying like $6000 to get an upgraded engine from an inline 4 to a plain Jane v6.
this piece of shit can't even compete with a Chevrolet Equinox if you want a Lincoln sticker on your car by a Chevy Equinox take off the badges and put the name Lincoln on it it would be a far better purchase and a far better more comfortable vehicle
Omg do us all a favor and shut up, comparing this to a fucking Chevy equinox, ha-ha your a fucking idiot... Just shut the fuck up... Ha-ha an Equinox ha-ha
Maurice Spence I have no complaints my MKX.....and if their is a problem, it goes back to the dealership and they gave me a loaner. What more can U ask for?
hammer23ist People like that who bash cars are the ones that's never had any seat time in it or has the famous saying " I know somebody that had one and it was a POS "... I don't pay them any attention, half of them probably don't have License anyway.
+craig doss the whole vehicle looks like a rip off to me look her up right the rear seats are look at the dashboard looks like a Chevy Equinox from 2005 I mean give me a break I don't know who ever decides to pay 50 to $60,000 for this piece of shit is stupid! anyone who wants to argue that fact is also stupid!
this crossover has a small 2.7 with mediocre gas mileage, outdated infotainment system, finicky gear selector, and they want $60k???? you may as well wait on the Continental which will start at $50k.
Not just 2.7 L,...twin turbo charged for 335 horses! You haven't driven it, have you? "Finicky" gear selector? Gears are electrically selected, anyway. Why does it matter if it's done with a stick or a button? How is that finicky? It works quite well. I drove one today and it was not even a thing, let alone "finicky." It doesn't get to $60K, unless you add all the options. It's not the Lincoln of yester years. I've looked at all the alternatative luxury crossovers and they go much higher in price if you add these options and have any horse power to mention.
As a brand with poor name recognition and a recent history of poor, uncompetitive products, I think that Lincoln should be aiming to build budget-friendly yet quality vehicles... not trying to compete with the best of them at absurd prices. This vehicle is going to be an absolute flop at $63,000. It's easily 10k or even 15k too expensive over where it needs to compete.
I feel Lincoln is very close but just not there yet. And at that price yikes. The residual value or lack there of really kills it when compared to a Lexus or Audi. If they can make there Black Label interior standard, that would help justify the price. No reason the interior needs to be this cheap. Mazda has a cleaner interior in the CX 9 or CX 5
I feel like Lincoln totally missed the mark for a vehicle that is supposed to be high luxury and stylish there is none of any of it there this is a huge disappointment with an equinox looking front - and a back seat that is upright and weigh less comfortable than a Chevy Equinox which means back and also adjust back and forth this is a huge rip off and for anyone who buys this piece of crap is only bad by they want to say look I bought a Lincoln I can waste my money on junk wow I am really cool oh my gosh so stupid so fucking stupid how stupid can you be to like a piece of shit car and get ripped off by the Ford Motor Company which you are obviously in love with because you are ignorant of what they have built thanks have a fucking nice day
yes I believe it is poor execution the dashboard looks like the old Chevy Equinox except for push button gear selector which is stupid at best anyways good luck selling this junker
Waaaay overpriced! 61k new, worth 30k(or less) in 3 years..no value proposition here..Sorry ford-lincoln-uaw, I won't be buying... There are just too many SUPerior imported European models at the same price point..
Lincoln is ripping people off. Exterior looks nice but interior is average or below. I had to check this SUV out since I just saw it on the road. Way overpriced!
Another piece of crap from Detroit. Who is making the decisions on these products? They really need to clean house at Lincoln design and fire them all. And +60k?!?. RUnuts? No where near an RX in terms of interior design aesthetics. You hop into an RX and you can justify the cost. Not this example. Lincoln can do better.
IF you can stomach that ugly grill on the current Lexus. I say this as an '08 GS350 driver, who has waited and waited and waited for them to come up with a better grill. Tired of waiting. Looking to buy the MKX, which I drove today and loved! Beautiful, great drive, peppy, awesome seats.....very accommodating and I felt lavished in luxury. I don't get all the criticism here. It's a beautiful car with great amenities. Lexus drove me to this change with their ridiculous grills.
+Lisa Wood Congrats on your purchase! As I am a current 2011 CT200H owner, I want an American made equivalent and the last LINCOLN hybrid sedan I test drove didn't give me nowhere near the sense of fit and finish. I did admire the touch controls for climate control and the power was good and all but...that was a couple of years ago. Maybe I'll revisit the dealer again in August when my lease is up.
Thank you, Vincent! I can appreciate that, Vincent. But, I feel good about the MKX with AWD and the 2.7 ecoboost. I'm wanting an all purpose vehicle with enough comfort, pep and some utility function if I need it, meaning ...cargo space for occasions. The first MKX I drove wasn't the Ecoboost engine and it was very sluggish and disappointing. But, I was impressed with the 2.7 Ecoboost. I've looked at all my choices and narrowed it down to this one. I do wish it looked a bit more sporty, but no doubt it's a good looking vehicle. I love the look of the Jaguar F-Pace, but read on forums how owners are already complaining about some things, not to mention that it's 80% aluminum, costing more to repair, therefore hiking insurance up and like you, I have wanted to find a product from an American motor company. Anyway, on the plus side, my neighbor's son-in-law works for Ford corporate in Detroit and was down visiting. He offered me their "X Plan" (roughly 10%) discount, to go with a rebate deal of $2250, which together will compensate the first year of depreciation. So, I can't lose on that deal and I really did like the vehicle. Haven't ordered yet. Undecided about the wheels. I hear that while 20" wheels look good, they don't ride as well and are bad for getting your rims damaged at curbs. If anybody is going to hit a curb, it will be me. A simple pot hole could be bad on low profile tires. So,...much as I would love the look of the 20",....thinking I will go 18". I'm a sucker for a smooth ride on my 6 hour trips to see my mom. Go drive the 2.7 AWD and let me know what you think.
Well, I wouldn't say that. Having driven Lexus GS's for 10 years, with absolutely NO failures of any part of them, I know they're great cars. I just hate that they lost their minds with the use of the ugliest grills ever.

When the tailgate closes, I like how it gives up in the last two inches and just slam drops..

MetaView7 It won't allow to just change gears by accident unless you are just changing from drive to sport mode.

Waaaay overpriced! 61k new, worth 30k(or less) in 3 years..no value proposition here..Sorry ford-lincoln-uaw, I won't be buying... There are just too many SUPerior imported European models at the same price point..
Nice Car
M to the K to the X...
lol when old people design tech 😂
LOL this car in brazil is more than 500k
+neroloko12 with 60k here you get an old volkswagen
$61k..for what is basically a Ford Edge. No, just no.
Yeah its what audi does with volkswagen
+Mulkyan You mean what Volkswagen does with Audi since they own them.
The push button transmission first appeared on 1957 Chrysler products and later that year on the new Edsel. Nothing innovative here!
I suggest you watch it again, starting at 1:10.
Actually, it's you that is having difficulty understanding.
He meant something new for Lincoln he didn't mean something new for the market

Actually this isn't new to Lincoln. They first showed it at the 2012 Detroit Auto Show and it was in production the following year.
Stop being a hater!
man the interior is dull...
The gear is so obnoxious.
ok
Goof luck competing with the Lexus RX.

*Those are UGLY*
That's your opinion, RX will still outsell Lincoln. I see a lot of RX on the street, MKX maybe one onece in a blue moon.
+manifest 73 That's what all the gray hairs drive... Lexus....
Lincoln is ripping people off. Exterior looks nice but interior is average or below. I had to check this SUV out since I just saw it on the road. Way overpriced!
Faulty vehicle!
Bruzek kup se wózek.
Another piece of crap from Detroit. Who is making the decisions on these products? They really need to clean house at Lincoln design and fire them all. And +60k?!?. RUnuts? No where near an RX in terms of interior design aesthetics.
You hop into an RX and you can justify the cost.
Not this example. Lincoln can do better.
IF you can stomach that ugly grill on the current Lexus. I say this as an '08 GS350 driver, who has waited and waited and waited for them to come up with a better grill. Tired of waiting. Looking to buy the MKX, which I drove today and loved! Beautiful, great drive, peppy, awesome seats.....very accommodating and I felt lavished in luxury. I don't get all the criticism here. It's a beautiful car with great amenities. Lexus drove me to this change with their ridiculous grills.
+Lisa Wood Congrats on your purchase! As I am a current 2011 CT200H owner, I want an American made equivalent and the last LINCOLN hybrid sedan I test drove didn't give me nowhere near the sense of fit and finish. I did admire the touch controls for climate control and the power was good and all but...that was a couple of years ago.
Maybe I'll revisit the dealer again in August when my lease is up.
Thank you, Vincent! I can appreciate that, Vincent. But, I feel good about the MKX with AWD and the 2.7 ecoboost. I'm wanting an all purpose vehicle with enough comfort, pep and some utility function if I need it, meaning ...cargo space for occasions. The first MKX I drove wasn't the Ecoboost engine and it was very sluggish and disappointing. But, I was impressed with the 2.7 Ecoboost. I've looked at all my choices and narrowed it down to this one. I do wish it looked a bit more sporty, but no doubt it's a good looking vehicle. I love the look of the Jaguar F-Pace, but read on forums how owners are already complaining about some things, not to mention that it's 80% aluminum, costing more to repair, therefore hiking insurance up and like you, I have wanted to find a product from an American motor company. Anyway, on the plus side, my neighbor's son-in-law works for Ford corporate in Detroit and was down visiting. He offered me their "X Plan" (roughly 10%) discount, to go with a rebate deal of $2250, which together will compensate the first year of depreciation. So, I can't lose on that deal and I really did like the vehicle. Haven't ordered yet. Undecided about the wheels. I hear that while 20" wheels look good, they don't ride as well and are bad for getting your rims damaged at curbs. If anybody is going to hit a curb, it will be me. A simple pot hole could be bad on low profile tires. So,...much as I would love the look of the 20",....thinking I will go 18". I'm a sucker for a smooth ride on my 6 hour trips to see my mom. Go drive the 2.7 AWD and let me know what you think.
Lexus IS way over rated..
Well, I wouldn't say that. Having driven Lexus GS's for 10 years, with absolutely NO failures of any part of them, I know they're great cars. I just hate that they lost their minds with the use of the ugliest grills ever.
Out dated interior
