READ ON ABOUT CANADA’S NUMBER ONE LUXURY VEHICLE. ONLY AT BELANGER LINCOLN. CLICK HERE TO SEE OUR STOCK

A Spectacular Skylight

The standard panoramic fixed glass Vista Roof™ in the 2012 Lincoln MKT is nearly twice as large as a normal sunroof and offers a stunning view for all passengers. When you opt for the Elite Package, a power Vista Roof is included, allowing an open air driving experience.

Ready to Soar

MKT’s split-wing grille is a statement of distinction and modern sophistication. It acts as the first and lasting impression and represents our dedication to progress and forward momentum.

Your Code is the Key

With the SecuriCode™ invisible keypad, simply touch the exterior panel to illuminate the keypad, and enter your security code to unlock your doors.

Plus, whenever you have the key with you, simply touch anywhere on the invisible keypad to unlock the doors quickly and easily.

A Staple of Convenience

Formed with weight-saving magnesium, the sweeping rear liftgate of MKT opens and closes easily. Just press a button on the key fob, or inside the cabin, and the power liftgate opens or closes.

The power liftgate opens to reveal a generous 507 litres (17.9 cu. ft.) of cargo space that can expand to 1121 litres (39.6 cu. ft.) by folding the third-row seat down. For maximum cargo, fold the second- and third-row seats down and 2149 litres (75.9 cu. ft.) of space is available

Valet Parking at the Touch of a Button

In as little as 24 seconds, a Lincoln MKT equipped with available Active Park Assist can overcome one of the most stressful aspects of driving: parallel parking. You’ll marvel at the simplicity as Lincoln MKT handles the manoeuvre – with very little assistance from you. Simplicity realized. Parallel parking conquered. Now on to more important things

The Luxury of Peace of Mind

For a little extra help, choose the available BLIS� (Blind Spot Information System) with Cross Traffic Alert.* When BLIS detects a vehicle in your blind spot, the system illuminates an amber light in the corresponding sideview mirror – alerting you to stay where you are until it’s clear. Cross Traffic Alert chimes in by sounding a warning when its sensors detect a vehicle approaching on either side of MKT as you back out of a parking space.

* BLIS replaces standard integrated Blind Spot Mirrors.

You Can See Clearly Now

The bright, white light from the High Intensity Discharge (HID) headlamps supplies excellent down-the-road illumination. To help make even more of the roadway visible, Adaptive HID Headlamps with Auto High Beams swivel in the direction of the turn helping you see better at night and have more time to react. And the Auto High Beams feature turns the high beams on and off automatically, helping you stay focused on the road.

Fast. Clean. Convenient.

Trips to the gas station can be quicker and cleaner with the Easy Fuel™ Capless Fuel Filler. The system automatically seals shut after fueling is finished, so you never drive away with an incorrectly installed gas cap, or accidentally leave it behind. The result? A reduction in harmful fuel tank evaporation emissions

See What You’re Missing

When you put MKT in Reverse, the standard rearview camera provides a video image of the area behind your vehicle on an eight-inch colour touch screen. Sight lines even give you a handy reference point as you’re backing up. It’s always worth a look.

Comfort for All

Attention to detail helps set the Lincoln MKT apart. Detailed stitching and fine seating materials envelop you the minute you sit down. Indulge your softer side. The heated and cooled front seats with 12-way power adjustment offer the ultimate in comfort. Indulge your softer side.

Sit Back, Relax. It’s Going to Be a Smooth Ride.

With best-in-class legroom*, the standard 60/40 fold flat bench with heated outboard sections is the perfect place to catch up with a friend. Side window sunshades help keep the interior from getting too bright. And tri-zone electronic automatic temperature control lets passengers choose their comfort level.

For even more comfort, available heated and cooled second-row bucket seats feature power lumbar and can fold and tumble at the touch of a button. An available refrigerated centre console allows everyone to cool off with an ice-cold beverage. It can even freeze items down to a frosty -5°C (23°F). Get ready to chill.

* Class is Medium Premium Utility vehicles with 3-Row Seating.

First Class, Three Rows Deep

Those in MKT’s third row are not immune to its charms. Best-in-class legroom* provides the space your passengers desire, while a standard fixed glass Vista Roof™ allows a view that’s far from ordinary. For cargo, the 50/50 split-bench seat folds flat into the floor.

A PowerFold® third-row seat in the available Elite Package makes it even more effortless. If needed, the seat can even flip over to form a rear-facing tailgate seat.** It’s all here.

* Class is Medium Premium Utility vehicles with 3-Row Seating.

** Do not drive vehicle when third row is in tailgate position.

The Luxury of Voice-Activated Entertainment

Enter Lincoln MKT with your paired Bluetooth®-enabled phone or plug your digital media player into its USB port. Lincoln SYNC®* voice-activated, in-vehicle communications and entertainment system knows you’re there. Press a steering wheel button, say “Call office” or “Play genre: Jazz,” and it follows your commands.

But that’s not all. Developed in concert with Microsoft®, SYNC with class-exclusive 911 Assist™ can make an emergency call from your phone if any airbag deploys.** And unlike other systems, SYNC connects you directly to a 911 operator. You talk. SYNC listens.™

* Some mobile phones and some digital media players may not be fully compatible. Visit SyncMyRide.ca for full connectivity details. Driving while distracted can result in loss of vehicle control. Only use mobile phones and other devices, even with voice commands, when it is safe to do so.

** The vehicle’s electrical system (including the battery), the wireless service provider’s signal, and a connected mobile phone must all be available and operating for 911 Assist to function properly. These systems may become damaged in a crash. The paired mobile phone must be turned on, connected to SYNC, and the 911 Assist feature enabled in order for 911 to be dialed.

Smart to the Touch

The standard 8-inch touch screen in Lincoln MKT defines simplicity and ease. To raise or lower the temperature, simply touch the climate quadrant, then the up or down arrows. To adjust the stereo or to access SIRIUS® Satellite Radio,* touch to make your selections. Surf up to 120 channels including 100-percent commercial-free music, plus the best sports, news, talk, and entertainment, all across Canada. You’ll even get online access to SIRIUS with the six-month prepaid subscription that’s included with every Lincoln MKT.

With nearly 10 gigabytes of storage, the touch screen is also the perfect place to house your music and photos. Rip entire CDs or just your favourite songs (up to 2,400 of them), as well as store photos that can be displayed on-screen. In addition, the vibrant screen features a compass and displays the image from the standard rearview camera whenever you put MKT in Reverse. Sight lines even give you a handy reference point as you’re backing up. It’s always worth a look.

* See your Lincoln Dealer or contact SIRIUS at 1.888.539.7474 for more information.

Start Smarter

Buckle in, depress the brake pedal and push a button. As long as the Intelligent Access Key is somewhere in the vehicle, starting the engine is just that easy.

What Luxury Sounds Like

The available THX II® Certified 5.1 Surround Audio System lets you experience DVD-audio discs in true surround sound and listen to CDs, MP3 files, and SIRIUS® Satellite Radio like never before. First-in-class* DTS Neural Sound™ even delivers surround-sound experiences from compressed digital music formats stored in your MP3 player or mobile phone. Fourteen strategically aimed speakers, including a centre-channel THX Slot Speaker™ array, ensure a high-impact listening experience. Included on MKT Elite Package.

* Class is Medium Premium Utility vehicles with 3-Row Seating.

Need Directions? Just Say the Word.

Included in the available Elite Package, the voice-activated Navigation System features sophisticated speech-recognition software that makes control incredibly easy. Just say the name of your destination while driving, and a course is plotted. In Route Guidance mode, upcoming street names are called out. A bird’s-eye view includes on-screen landmarks for additional reference.

Helps Keep a Safe Distance.

On the road, getting too close is discouraged. To help you keep your distance, activate the available Adaptive Cruise Control and Collision Warning with Brake Support and let MKT maintain the pace. This radar-based system is designed to maintain one of three preset gaps between MKT and the vehicle in front of it. When sensors detect that a vehicle ahead is slowing, MKT slows down. When sensors detect the gap widening, you return to your preset speed. Even while commuting, the system adjusts the gap as vehicles brake, accelerate, and change lanes around you.

Whether Adaptive Cruise Control is activated or not, collision warning with brake support is always active and ready to respond. If sensors detect a potential rear-end collision with the vehicle in front of you, collision warning chimes and flashes a red warning light on the windshield to get your attention. If you fail to respond immediately, brake support pre-charges brake pressure so you get full brake power when applied. It’s just one more way Lincoln MKT stays on the lookout for you.

V8 Power. V6 Efficiency.

Lincoln’s available 3.5L EcoBoost™ V-6 twin-turbocharged, direct-injection engine launches MKT with 350 lb.-ft. of torque and delivers smooth power on demand from 355 horsepower.* It also provides better fuel economy** than any competitive gas engine in its class. Twin turbochargers compress great volumes of air, while fuel injectors spray pressurized fuel precisely into each cylinder. The results are unlike anything you’ve ever driven.

* Figures achieved using premium unleaded gasoline.

** 13.1L/100 km city and 9.2L/100 km hwy. (22 mpg city/31 hwy.), 3.5L EcoBoost.

A Powerful Experience

The standard 3.7L Duratec® V-6 engine delivers 268 horsepower and highway fuel economy of up to 31 mpg.*

* 12.3L/100 km city and 8.7L/100 km hwy. (23 mpg city/32 hwy.), 3.7L Duratec. Fuel consumption ratings based on Transport Canada approved test methods.

Traction Around Every Corner

To help increase traction, there’s Intelligent All-Wheel Drive (AWD). In rain, snow, or uneven roads, Intelligent AWD reacts instantly, seamlessly distributing torque to the wheel or wheels with the best grip.

Under Your Control

Steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters put control of MKT at the tips of your fingers with the 6-speed SelectShift Automatic® transmission in manual mode. Actuation is concise, giving you exceptional control since your hands don’t have to leave the wheel. Or, if you prefer, put SelectShift in automatic and the transmission handles the shifting for you.

The Luxury of Limits

The MyKey™ allows you to program a restricted driving mode on one standard key supplied with your vehicle or any programmed spare key to promote good driving habits. You can limit top speed or select speed alert chimes each time the vehicle speed reaches 72, 88, or 105 km/h. With MyKey you may also limit volume of the audio system to 44 percent of its maximum output. Safety features like the Belt-Minder® System cannot be disabled and the audio system will be muted, whenever Belt-Minder is activated.

Ready, Willing and Stable.

AdvanceTrac® with RSC® (Roll Stability Control™)* is the industry’s only electronic stability control system with two gyroscopic sensors – one of which is a unique vehicle-roll motion sensor that directly measures the vehicle’s roll rate 100 times every second. Working in conjunction with the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS), traction control and yaw control, AdvanceTrac® with RSC uses the roll rate and other information to automatically determine when and how it will apply individual brakes and/or modify engine power to help keep all four wheels of Lincoln MKT firmly planted.

* Remember that even advanced technology cannot overcome the laws of physics. It’s always possible to lose control of a vehicle due to inappropriate driver input for the conditions.

Safety Just Got Smarter

The available collision warning with brake support helps in case a collision appears imminent. This function will alert you if it senses a potential rear-end collision with the vehicle in front of you. A “heads-up” display, which simulates brake lights, flashes on the windshield. If you don’t react, and the system detects a collision is imminent, the brakes will pre-charge, increasing brake assist sensitivity to help provide you with full brake responsiveness when you press the pedal.*

* Available only as part of the Adaptive Cruise Control feature.

Attention When You Need It.

Additional peace of mind comes from the standard SOS Post-Crash Alert System™, which becomes operational in the event of airbag deployment or safety belt pretensioner activation.* If either of these occurs, the hazard lights flash and the horn sounds, so that you and your passengers may be more easily located after an accident. In this case, drawing attention to yourself is a very good thing.

* SOS hardware may become damaged or the battery may lose power in a crash, which could prevent operation. Not all crashes will activate an airbag or safety belt pretensioner

Surrounded by Safety

Truth be told, we’d like the six standard airbags in Lincoln MKT to stay under wraps. We’re not trying to hide them. In fact, we couldn’t be more proud. Our safety engineers lavished attention on the design and shape of each one. Driver and front-passenger coverage includes dual-stage front airbags and front-seat side airbags, while all outboard passengers benefit from the side-curtain airbags and rollover sensor in the Safety Canopy® System. In certain types of side-impact or rollover events, the side-curtain airbags with roll-fold technology deploy from the headliner to cover all three rows.

Authorized Drivers Only

This system is activated by pressing the start/stop button to stop the engine and is designed to help prevent the engine from being started unless a coded key, programmed to your vehicle, is used.

Stop Safer

The four-wheel ABS and electronic brake force distribution (EBD) helps prevent wheel lockup during hard braking conditions. When computer-controlled sensors indicate wheel lockup during hard braking, the four-channel ABS electronically pumps the brakes several times per second, helping you maintain steering control.

It Can Handle the Pressure

When the tire pressure goes below the recommended tire inflation level,* a warning lamp is displayed along with a corresponding notification in the message centre.

* Excludes spare tire.
