The Ford subsidiary is not determined regularly over here on AB, but for this time we would like to make an exception.

During the car show of Los Angeles, the brand, the facelifted FMD (z’n platform with the Mondeo shares) will be presented. For those who also have a déjà vu moment: the appearance is indeed in line with the taste of the upcoming Continental. You know, that car where former Bentley designer Luc Donckerwolke not very happy with it.

Under the hood of the top is a blown 3.0 six cylinder à 405 hp. To make sure that no horse with a plume bandenrook and associated sound replacement you will get this FMD four-wheel drive. In addition, versions with a lighter V6 (355 hp) and a 2.0 four-cylinder engine (245 hp) are available. Also is the car delivered with all security features and a refreshed interior.

This must be the American, the fight to be able to bind with the usual suspects, i.e. the BMW 3-series, the Mercedes C-class, the Audi A4 and the Jaguar XE. Or the new look, the average European to purchase can entice remains to be seen. The newly minted CEO of Lincoln, however, has big plans and wants to seriously contend with the (predominantly European) establishment.
