Lincoln’s current lineup in the North America is limited to just four models none of which is a sedan – Corsair, Nautilus, Aviator, and Navigator. In the meantime, the company is offering a saloon called Zephyr in China.
The Zephyr comes to phase out the old MKZ
model in China and features a giant chrome grille, LED DRLs running between the
headlights, and a deluxe interior with an enormous 27-inch display and a
12.3-inch digital dash next to it. Lincoln actually went as far as to leave
physical controls for gear selection, something many of us are missing in
modern cars.
Overall, the design looks original, but some
elements appear inspired by other marques. Note especially the Audi A7-style
taillights.
When it reaches the showroom floors, the
Zephyr will be offered with a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine mated to an
eight-speed automatic transmission. The nominal power will amount to 238 PS.
