SmartKid001 Posted April 21, 2021 Author Share Posted April 21, 2021 Given the fact that it's an ICE vehicle, now I can safely assume that this grille is just for demonstration, and the production version will likely have the one like aviator black labela's.

jniffen Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 The grill reminds me too much the the Lexus and that looks like a cow catcher on a steam locomotive. I still wish Ford/Lincoln build and sold cars in North America, but it is what it is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justins Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Am I missing something? This is quite obviously a refreshed MKZ, right? They've swapped the glasshouse for the Fusion's, but the hardpoints and roofline are all there... So this isn't a NEW vehicle, just an update with some flashy tech that the rest of the world isn't getting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah its on a completely different platform-a modified C2 vs the older CD6, which was based on the old C1 platform from 15 years ago or so. It shares its underpinnings with the upcoming Evos in the Chinese market. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C2 came on-line in 2018, CD6 arrived in 2020 and the only thing it shares with the old C1 platform is the letter "C"....GRWD was a still-born attempt at rear driven uni-body platforms that never got past design stage and pre-dates C2 and CD6 and it died when Ford pulled the plug on Ford Australia manufacturing.

The fuel filler door on the left rear fender looks too small for a charging port Charging ports are commonly located on front fenders On either side of the rear facia, looks to be Lexus-type exhaust ports Edited April 24, 2021 by Chrisgb Add content, correct grammar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
