Ford luxury brand, Lincoln, was finally living in lately something to see, thanks to the company, more efforts to revive this once-storied brand. Sell Aston Martin, Jaguar and Land Rover have contributed to Lincoln's, as the Movement is free Ford designers to work on cars for its Ford, Mercury, and Lincoln brands.
All new models in the pipeline
Ford managers were informed of the forthcoming few products in the pipeline, which is clearly the Ford Fiesta, while hinting that both Mercury and Lincoln would have a few new models. The latter two brands sold Lincoln Mercury dealers and the dealers are mainly for fresh product to sell.
Recently, Automotive News, that the common Lincoln can in fact an entirely new model, this is a compact car, to oppose the BMW 1 and to compensate for a compact-model Cadillac, which is also in the works. This is the first time that the kind of news has, so that analysts speculate what Ford has in mind. On the basis of current market conditions, we can say that a compact Lincoln would slot below the foot-and retail for about $ 30,000, the price of cars in this segment.
What A Compact Lincoln could look like
Let us take a look at a potential Lincoln compact car and what it could mean for the American luxury brand:
Designing a sedan - I can not imagine Ford Lincoln, a little more than a sedan, but a luxury roadster would be nice. However, with the Lexus SC and even not sell all that with GM planning to the Saturn Sky and Pontiac Solstice, the car manufacturers would be better to focus on something safe - it is not a car safer than four door sedan!
Relying on EcoBoost - No buyer will be satisfied with a four-cylinder Lincoln, unless he has the power to deliver. With Ford's EcoBoost engines on the road, this new technology allows smaller engines to work harder than a larger, while the fuel savings. A four-cylinder 1.8L would be small, but with EcoBoost they would have the power of a small V6.
In line with the Volvo - As the owner of Volvo, Ford has not yet tapped its Swedish brand for Lincoln yet. Although I feel that we see nothing but a revised Ford sold as a Lincoln, a new car from the ground up, the basis for a Volvo and a Lincoln model makes most sense to me. Then again, we are talking about Ford - the king of brand redundancy.
Make It Snappy! - The next Lincoln needs to do something no other Lincoln is currently the case, and this is the brand Jack wow appeal. FMD is starting to tremble, which for the brand, but it is not enough - Ford may be a compact luxury car that is truly luxurious, good looking and fun to drive? That remains to be seen!
I am not convinced that Ford and Lincoln is a compact model, yet I believe that this car is a must for the brand. Mercury is in bad shape, and it could be the best brand for the sale of this type of car. Anyway, we are not likely to see the new model before 2011, so our speculation have to do it is for now.
