2009 Lincoln MKS Spotted In Production
Monday, November 5th, 2007
It seems that when it comes to movies things become ‘unwrapped’ (if only for a little while). In ‘Transformer’s we got a glimpse of the 2009 Camaro and in the new Batman film we will get to see what the new 2009 Lincoln MKS looks like. For now we have only seen sneak pics of it while still in camouflage – but it seems that a lucky photographer was able to catch a glimpse of it in action while one set.
The MKS concept was first shown at the Detroit auto show in January 2006. The production-ready car has clearly been influenced by the popular MKR concept, which debuted at the 2007 show a year later.
Compared to the concept, the taillights appear to have become slightly taller and narrower. The headlights end at a less sharp point than on the concept, but remain true to the design language set out by the show car.
Some detailing has changed since they created the concept car, but the overall appearance has not been changed too much. The MKS will share Ford’s Volvo-derived D3 architecture with the Taurus and Sable. We expect to see this production MKS go public next January at the 2008 NAIAS. Rather than offering a V8 version of the MKS, Ford is expected to offer a TwinForce turbocharged V6 with as much as 400 horsepower and 415 lb-ft of torque.
