Meet the New Standard Bearer for Luxury Crossovers

Ask any luxury car buyer and they’ll tell you their purchase decision isn’t just based on stuff like leather trim and surround sound. It’s also about performance.

The 2011 Lincoln MKX is the newest vehicle in the premium maker’s lineup to offer best-in-class horsepower and torque and the best fuel economy of any luxury crossover vehicle on the market.

The 2011 Lincoln MKX received final fuel economy certification this week, achieving 19 mpg city and 26 mpg highway, with a combined fuel economy of 21 mpg, topping all competitors, including the Lexus RX350, Cadillac SRX and BMW X5, with not only horsepower but now fuel efficiency as well.

The horsepower of the 2011 Lincoln MKX has increased to 305 – a 15 percent increase compared to the outgoing product – while torque has increased 12 percent to 280 lb.-ft.
