Model History

2016-

Current Generation

Based on the capable Ford Edge, the redesigned Lincoln MKX is one of the best luxury SUVs in our testing. This is a quiet, refined, and high-tech vehicle. The standard 303-hp, 3.7-liter V6 feels a bit unremarkable, while the optional 335-hp, 2.7-liter turbo V6 is smooth and delivers effortless thrust. The only knock against the MKX is its rather unimpressive fuel economy of 18 mpg overall. Handling is athletic, making the MKX fun to drive and the ride is steady and composed. Tall drivers will likely find the push-button shifter a long reach away. The very quiet cabin feels first class, with abundant wood, brushed metal, and leather surfaces. Convenience and safety features include a 360-degree camera, parking and lane-keeping assist, cross-traffic alert, and automatic braking. A much better Sync 3 infotainment system replaced MyLincoln Touch.

2011-2015

2011 Redesign Year

The 2011 redesign spiffed things up a bit, but the enhancements didn't push it into the realm of competiveness in the class. With that said, the Lincoln does have an absorbent ride, the engine delivers plenty of power, and the cabin is plush and neatly finished. But the touch-sensitive buttons make adjusting the climate, audio, and other functions a distracting and tedious nuisance.

2007-2010

2007 Redesign Year

Lincoln's MKX uses Ford's 3.5-liter V6 and six-speed automatic, a combination that delivered strong performance. The ride is comfortable, but handling lacks agility. Overall though, we found the MKX lacking when it comes to justifying its price premium. The Lincoln doesn't offer a third-row seat, its engine and transmission lack the refinement of other competitors, and its handling is not agile.
