Lincoln C Concept showcases a human machine interface (HMI) and in-car connectivity technologies that aim to facilitate social networking. Lincoln is breaking new ground with the Lincoln C concept, a new big idea for a small luxury car.
Designed with today�s upscale, urban consumer in mind, the Lincoln C concept brings the presence and elegance of a large Lincoln to a smaller, more efficient C-sized car. �Modern luxury buyers who live and work in large, urban areas want to play their part in helping the environment by moving to a smaller vehicle, but they still want to enjoy the luxuries of life,� said Peter Horbury, executive director of Design, The Americas. �The Lincoln C offers sensible indulgence.�
According to Horbury, younger contemporary consumers with slim iPods and pocket-sized cameras have already grown accustomed to the notion of premium quality in a small package. �During the past decade, people have gotten used to the idea that you could pay more money for a smaller version of the real thing,� said Horbury, citing the evolution of music players from tapes to CDs to MP3 players as an example.
�The same philosophy can be applied to the automobile,� he added. �People will be happy to buy a smaller car that is better for the environment and more maneuverable in the city as long as the vehicle has all the attributes they want.� The concept�s unique size, lightweight construction and use of sustainable materials make the Lincoln C stand out � along with its fuel economy.
Featuring a 1.6-liter EcoBoost engine and Ford�s all-new dry, dual-clutch PowerShift six-speed transmission, the Lincoln C concept achieves 43 mpg on the highway, while offering up an impressive 180 horsepower and 180 ft.-lbs. of torque. PowerShift and outstanding driving dynamics make the Lincoln C concept fun for the driver.
