In the market possessed with sorcery of loud screens and louder badges, the new Lincoln Continental returns like a quiet rebellion with an artful blend of old-world-luxury with modern precision.

With a robust 3.0 liter twin turbocharged V6 engine concealed under its hood ensures the following;

  • An astounding 400 horsepower with a notable 400 lb-ft of torque.
  • Without the intention to chase the Nürburgring fantasies, it still manages to notch an 0-60 mph sprint in roughly 5.0 seconds.
  • Exhibiting the value of presence backed by performance with top speed near 155 mph.

And, if you’re wondering that the respective numbers are not ‘topping charts’ and gauging its capabilities with few traditional assessment methods then you’re yet to be starstruck by its atmosphere.

Much like this, the latest Lincoln Continental specifications offer a rare unification of classic luxury and today’s touch that sets new benchmarks for driving experience with its unmatchable poise and delivery.

And that’s ‘the’ overview of the new Lucious Lincoln Continental for you and now it’s the moment to dive deep into the specifications of this tour de force and find out what it’s carrying that makes it a counter-offer to the algorithmic sameness of modern sedans!

Yet, its one quiet flaw sits in its philosophy that as discerning automobile reviewer, it becomes our moral obligation that we must not skirt around and that shortcoming that makes it member of the “even brilliance bear the blemish” community lies in its REAR CABIN!

So, let’s decode it for our valued readers and car enthusiasts.

Despite having ample stature & size, Continental’s rear cabin still feels more executive-leaning than truly expansive, in other words, it might be not wrong to say it could disappoint the buyers expecting limousine-like sprawl.

 And, that’s a caveat that you have to ignore every time when the Lincoln Continental is your companion. 

In conclusion, the latest Lincoln Continental is a flagship sedan that speaks softly, carries strength, and refuses the rush the moment. A near-perfect embodiment of car that born with an old-school plush and poise  with coming age confidence.
