New Leader Shifts Lincoln's EV Plans - Lincoln is Expected to Discontinue Gasoline Versions of the Corsair and Aviator, While Its First EV, a Three-Row Crossover, is Expected in Late 2025I honestly think they could have made it work. Jaguar focusing on old British Luxury while Lincoln focused on American style and luxury from what I remember Jaguar Execs hated that Lincoln had the LS and didn't want to exist and forced Ford to kill the supercharged LSE. I dont think the LSE would have stepped on the Supercharged S-Type's toes per say since the styling and interior of those 2 sedans were so dramatically different. But what do I know.
I actually didn't know about a Lincoln based Escape back in 2003 or a smaller sedan under the LS. I am curious to know more if you do know anything else. Would have been interesting to say the least.
Since getting my 04 Aviator I kind of did a deep dive into its differences with the Explorer since I always assumed it was just a rebadge with a Lincoln V8 but I had no idea the suspension got so much more work to make it drive and feel different. I think Motorweek said it was actually pretty sporty and if the LS were a SUV that would be it. I am sad it didn't get a 2nd gen. I know the original plan was the MKX was going to be called Aviator but the name got changed last second to make everything MK-whatever. There are early shots of the first gen MKX floating around out there with Aviator badging on it from early Ford press releases.Wed, 06 Sep 2023 22:24:21 +0000
