When the new Lincoln Z released a pre-price of 25.5-34.2 million yuan, I believe that many riders will say that another BMW 3 Series and Audi A4L opponent is coming. But if you dig a little deeper, you'll find that this Lincoln Z is slightly higher in many ways than a mid-size luxury sedan at this price point. Some car friends feel that Lincoln's launch of lincoln Z this time is a bit of a "dimensionality reduction strike", because in their view, many things of lincoln Z are aimed at the standard of BMW 5 series, and some of its hardware foundation can be compared with medium and large luxury cars such as The Ma 5 Series, Audi A6L, Volvo S90, cadillac CT6 and so on. More critically, its price will be even more ferocious after it is listed! Is this really the case? Let's take a look!
How about the exterior styling?
As a luxury car for the new generation of elites, on the Lincoln Z you can feel the luxury of fashion, sports and avant-garde. The new through-design headlights, paired with the glowing Lincoln Star, give a sharp visual impact and confidence. The slender body of nearly 5 meters, with the sneaky body design, gives people a fashionable and dynamic trend atmosphere, making people look at the luxury cars of the pioneers of the times.
What about wheelbase body sizes?
When you buy a car, in addition to the brand and appearance, the most important thing may be the size of the car. Lincoln really understood domestic consumers this time. The Lincoln Z has a length, width and height of 4982/1865/1485mm, and a wheelbase of 2930mm. If you have no concept of this, let's take an example, the BMW 3 Series long-axis version is 4829/1827/1463mm, with a wheelbase of 2961mm, while the BMW 5 Series standard axle version is 4976/1868/1489mm, with a wheelbase of 2975mm. Therefore, the body size of the Lincoln Z fully overshadows the BMW 3 Series and reaches the level of the BMW 5 Series standard shaft version. This helps create a more aura-like shape and more space inside the car.
What about luxury?
In the past, many people saw that American cars were not as meticulous in workmanship and details as The Germans, because they did not have the heart to create a sense of luxury. But this Lincoln Z is eye-catching and will definitely give you a new understanding. The first is that it adopts a rare double-shaped design of its class, and Lincoln Z provides two styles of appearance, i cool and i enjoy. The two models have obvious differences in grille, rim, side air intake decoration and body trim style, which caters to different aesthetic needs of riders, at least one more choice.
Lincoln Z is also equipped with the Embrace & Farewell welcome light language light and shadow system, when the owner carries the car keys close to the vehicle, the "through-horizon light strip" is lit, when the largest 1.8 meters in Lincoln history of the huge welcome light blanket appears on both sides of the body, the taillight welcome animation effect provides 3 animation effects, the sense of ceremony is full, absolutely pulling.
Inside, the Lincoln Z is equipped with a pleasant fragrance system, offering seven flavors such as Sunny Sun, Orange Blossom, Azure, Mu Guang, Yueran, Love of the Sea, and Aoba, as well as four modes including Love of The Sea, Romantic Illusion, Cosmic Starry Sky, and Tea Rhyme Nature. Together, music, fragrance, massage (exclusive to the i-edition) and through-screen panoramic animations create a free and comfortable driving experience.
Lincoln is also equipped with a full range of technology entertainment configuration, the most conspicuous is the 12.3 inches + 27 inches through-view panoramic screen, it also integrates the new Lincoln Nebula human-computer interactive interface and the fourth generation of Lincoln SYNC + Intelligent Travel interconnection system, with intelligent AI voice interaction, intelligent navigation, car entertainment ecology and car home interconnection and other functions. Create a smart, convenient and pleasant travel experience for car owners. In contrast, the 12.3-inch central control touch LCD screen equipped with the BMW 5 Series is much inferior in both function and visual experience.
Another praiseworthy thing is that lincoln Z is based on the same source of new energy models as the intelligent network architecture, which can support FOTA (Firmware Over-The-Air) vehicle firmware online upgrade. Vehicles are automatically updated on a regular basis, keeping their functions and performance up to date at all times. In contrast, the BMW 5 Series can only achieve the OTA upgrade of the car machine, whether in terms of function or in the future long-term car experience, Lincoln Z will continue to open up the advantages with the BMW 5 Series in technology entertainment and car experience.
What about power?
Power has always been the advantage of American cars, and they are like German cars with displacement engines and also separate high and low power versions. This Lincoln Z starts with a 2.0T high-power engine, with a maximum horsepower of 246 horsepower, and can continuously output a maximum torque of 376 Nm at 2500-4000 rpm, and the zero hundred acceleration of the entire series takes only 6.8 seconds.
What about the price? Is it worth buying?
Lincoln Z will soon be officially listed on March 12, the current official pre-sale price of 255,000-34.2 million yuan, according to the manufacturer's consistent operation after the listing, the price may be reduced by about 2000-3000. Even if it is listed according to the pre-sale price, considering its product strength, its cost performance and price ratio are unmatched in the same level. It should be known that the guidance price of the BMW 3 Series is 293,900-39.89 million yuan, and the BMW 5 Series mentioned above is as high as 428,900-55.19 million yuan. Compared with the Lincoln Z, it is nearly 200,000 yuan higher.
In fact, from the perspective of book strength, lincoln Z division can be comparable to the BMW 5 series, and even better in terms of scientific and technological functions and later car experience, and its price is more close to the people than the BMW 3 series, such a cost-effective and high-price ratio model, throughout the 30-1 million yuan luxury car is also rare. So, if you're not superstitious about which brand, or if you're pursuing the actual product power, user value, and experience of the vehicle, then this upcoming Lincoln Z is really worth a good look.
