RadicalX Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Very Large. I think it's a 7-seater version from the Escape 3-row. Probably that rumor about a crossover below the MKC might be right. Lincoln seems to be increasing the size of the MKC to open up space to a subcompact crossover 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANTAUS Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 A touch Aviator (to die it in, but really Land Rover), from the side. I do agree with the "sharper" comment, if the front top hood line where a bit taller and more upright it would help too give it a tie to the bigger. Overall I really like what I see. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvrsvt Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 I like it, but not really a fan of what they did with the black paint wrapping under the spoiler on the roof. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's bigger to address the number 1 complaint (Escape too) and that is rear seat legroom. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmc523 Posted February 20, 2019 Author Share Posted February 20, 2019 Looks like they worked on the proportions more, which was also an issue with MKC, especially compared to the concept, which was very sleek looking vs. the more frumpy/upright production model.

T-dubz Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 This looks really good. I agree the front needs to be more upright. Maybe a larger grille, but overall I like it. It does look much larger than the previous version, and while I’m sure it is a few inches longer, most of it is probably an optical illusion due to the blacked out pillar and sloping roof line. I bet if you just blacked out the same area on the current mkc, it’s look a lot larger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hood could be taller and the grille larger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
averagengineer Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 (edited) Told you guys it would be really close to a mini Aviator. I really LOVE the looks of this and the Aviator. I'm sooo tempted to buy one even though I can't really afford another new vehicle at this time. Those proportions..

.I. Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 (edited) Really nice. I agree that the front end needs to be taller to resemble the Aviator. The rear spoiler on the roof needs a different paint treatment. Lincoln´s designers have had to continue with the sloping line that come from the upper side of the windows and continue it , downward, to the base of the spolier, not upper to the spoiler. That is a small detail that could change the design a lot. The same with the chrome trim arroud the windows... Is too expensive to make the chrome trim complete arround the roof spoiler and at the base of the rear window on the hatch? That could give a better finished look to the vehicle. But, aside of those small critics, is a very good designed vehicle. And will sell better tha the smaller MKC. The interior? I´m curious... When it will debut?

Strange that we haven't seen even a concept version yet and production is 6 months away. I understand they're probably waiting for New York but this is so out of character for Ford lately. They normally show the concept a year or more out. I actually like it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read where they are also having issues with the new 1.5 liter engine. Piston scoring going on. The most plausible theory is that they didn't aim the injectors right and they are washing the oil off the sidewalls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think someone said it'd basically be a mini Aviator inside, which makes sense. 3 hours ago, akirby said: Strange that we haven't seen even a concept version yet and production is 6 months away.

Well, we had Nautilus launching and Aviator concept last year, so they likely figured it'd be crowded to show a Corsair concept last year, and this year, it's easier to just show the production model.

It gained size to address that problem, not to add a third row. Cool side effect, there's now room for the Maverick to slot in below it.

92merc Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 One other thing I noticed about the pictures. There are no roof rails going across it. Not sure if Lincoln is dropping them. But it gives it a different look. Personally I like them on my Escape, albeit they don't server any function for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
