When it comes to medium and large cars, the first thing that comes to mind is Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi's E-Class, 5 Series and A6L, but as everyone knows, in addition to these three German masterpieces, Lincoln, as the representative of Moxi, also has works in the medium and large car market, which is Lincoln Continental. Well, as an original imported model, it not only has a more affordable price than BBA, but also more affordable in terms of after-sales maintenance. Today, we will take a look at the lincoln continental car situation.
Let's take the 2019 models currently on sale as an example. Lincoln Continental is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, and unlike Mercedes-Benz and BMW, it can be said that the entry is high power, the maximum power of the engine is 177kW, the maximum torque is 386N·m, the only drawback is that this engine is matched with a 6-speed automatic transmission. However, in actual driving, this transmission, which is very mature in the Ford system, did not drag Lincoln Continental back, whether in terms of shift smoothness or response, it is remarkable. In terms of chassis, Lincoln Continental's tuning emphasizes comfort, and the chassis filters the vibration from the ground more thoroughly, although it sacrifices some handling, but in exchange for a better riding experience.
In terms of sound insulation, it reflects the level of Lincoln's flagship sedan, the performance in the low-speed state is very good, almost can not hear the engine running, tires and ground friction generated by the noise, and at 120km / h speed performance is better than the same class of car; fuel consumption, Lincoln Continental NEDC fuel consumption is 8.5L / 100km, the actual use will be slightly higher than this value, congested road conditions, 10 oil should have, such data in the same class of cars can only be considered decent, 6AT The transmission "does a lot".
As for maintenance, according to the recommendations of the vehicle maintenance manual, lincoln continental's first insurance is 10,000 kilometers or 12 months, and then every 10,000 kilometers or 12 months, the maintenance frequency is still relatively low; specific projects, the air conditioning filter is replaced every 20,000 kilometers, the air filter is replaced every 30,000 kilometers, and the fuel filter, spark plug, brake fluid, etc. are replaced every 40,000 kilometers, and the frequency of large maintenance is relatively low. According to calculations, a small maintenance cost in Lincoln Continent is about 1211 yuan, which is basically equivalent to BBA, and the maintenance cost is the highest at 120,000 kilometers or 144 months due to the need for all maintenance items, which is 4119 yuan, while the total maintenance cost when driving 60,000 kilometers or using three years is 11352 yuan, which is relatively affordable.
In fact, in addition to the transmission, Lincoln Continental does not have disadvantages compared to BBA products, and even some places perform better, especially in terms of price, as an original imported model, its market guidance price (including 2019 and 2020 models) is 360,800-462,800 yuan, and the comprehensive discount at the dealer is very large.
