2016 Lincoln MKX Confirmed For Debut Next Year
There are new Lincoln models on the way as Ford looks to boost the image of its luxury brand.
Earlier this year, the American automaker revealed the Lincoln MKX concept which previewed the next-generation crossover that will make its production debut next year. As Ford aims to triple Lincoln’s annual sales to around 300,000 units by 2020, expect a replacement for the MKS to come shortly after the new MKX arrives along with two new models for the brand’s lineup by the end of the decade.

Currently it’s unclear what Lincoln has planned for the other two models that will either be updated or added to the lineup by 2020, but one possibility is a new Navigator SUV, a compact sedan and a sports car based on the Ford Mustang. According to a report, the company will spend around $2.5 billion to develop the new models.
