2010 Lincoln MKS Test-Drive Update: A look around the inside
As mentioned last week, we are driving the new 2010 Lincoln MKS EcoBoost this week. Today we’re going to give you a look around the interior of the new 2010 MKS. Step inside, and you’ll notice right away that Ford has worked very hard to step up the interior quality and design of their cars. The MKS features leather seats, leather upholstery, very comfortable seats, ergonomically designed controls and a wonderful SYNC system and navigation with SIRIUS traffic link.
The 2010 Lincoln MKS comfortably seats 5 individuals with a lot of rear leg room. Standard on all Lincoln MKS models are heated and cooled 12-way power driver and passenger seats. Also standard are heated rear seats.
The aluminum carbon fiber imitation plastic trim also adds a nice touch.
As to answer the questions we received so far…
Bennie: Eco boost is said to have the power of a V8 but, what is the sound track like?
The 3.5L 355-hp V6 twin-turbocharged doesn’t have a loud track like sound. It’s very quiet but offers outstanding acceleration. You do hear the turbo kicking in, which is a nice noise.
Pat: … what kind of fuel-economy are you averaging? I’m guessing it should be around 15 mpg?
EPA estimated fuel-economy for the 2010 MKS EcoBoost comes in at 17/25 mpg (city/highway). We’re averaging 17.3 mpgs right now.
As always, stay in touch and we’ll provide you with more updates as the week goes on. Make sure you as us questions through Twitter for a faster response.
