For a long time, Lincoln in China relying on three SUV models to support a piece of the sky, as for the Continental that is the benchmark, MKZ cheap and old, not much to say...
Z, which is listed at 252,800 to 340,800 yuan, makes up for the lack of MKZ, but more importantly... It opens a new page in the history of the Lincoln brand's youthfulness and technology!
-- To subvert the "Z" to open up the future
From last year's Guangzhou Auto Show to witness the Lincoln Z debut pre-sale, Xiaobian felt that this car from the inside to the outside, and my impression of Lincoln's three major SUV warriors will be very different, it embraces the pace of high-tech stationing, compared to the predecessor MKZ is almost like Nobita met Doraemon; it releases the elements of youth, compared to the predecessor MKZ is like the old KK foresaw the Z generation.
Because of this, the charm of Z's products is just like What Mao Jingbo, President of Lincoln China, said at the press conference, so far the number of orders has exceeded 5,000+!
Lincoln Z's price of 25.28 ~ 340,800 yuan includes 7 models, of which 4 "i cool" prices are 25.28 ~ 33.58 million yuan, there are 3 "i-share" price of 26.98 ~ 34.08 million yuan, the difference between them, behind the representative is Lincoln's first in the Chinese market for a single model to launch a "double design" style!
In the future, Lincoln will provide Lincoln Z owners with a 5-year/140,000-kilometer vehicle warranty and a 6-month free subscription to intelligent assisted driving. In addition, car owners will also enjoy a series of customer benefits such as 30,000 car owner points from the Lincoln Way App and financial benefits for down payment of car purchases.
"Horizon", this is lincoln design director Kemal Curic for lincoln Z under the opening scene, and this design theme does run through Z's body - it has a large size star flare front grille, with a through-strip design into the front face design, making Z's front face look wider and more imposing!
The "through taillights" echoing the front of the car adopt a 3D suspension design, with a Super Red super red light effect, in addition to the dazzling also has a better safety warning effect.
In the side part, the 4982mm captain has already laid out the slender and atmospheric B+ class car, with the side logo line on the side of the front door (i enjoy a two-color design, i cool for a bright black + matte gray design), making Z long but not dull, and even more coupe-like smart charm.
--This is from the lincoln of the future
The in-car display on the Lincoln Z is definitely the largest in the 100-year history of the Lincoln brand - its panoramic screen width is 1.1 meters, spanning almost the entire instrument panel, including 2.3-inch, 27-inch large-size screens, and supports HIGH-definition resolution and multi-touch, enabling full or independent split-screen content display.
Interestingly, in this oversized screen, there is a new Lincoln Nebula human-computer interactive interface, which can present the commonly used car functions in the form of cards through the first Dashcard intelligent interaction design, allowing users to customize the interface according to personal preferences.
Through-view panoramic screen can achieve full-screen, collaboration, split screen (Solo/Co-pilot/Individual) a variety of intelligent operation modes, one finger operation can click and slide, two finger operation can achieve map function zoom, three finger operation can realize interconnection between screens, five fingers to return to the main interface, very high-tech feeling. Of course, in order to ensure driving safety, intelligent AI voice interaction functions are of course complete!
The Lincoln Z is equipped with the Co-Pilot 360TM2.0 Intelligent Driver Assistance System, which has the new Lincoln ActiveGlideTM Active Driver Assistance feature to enable L2+ level intelligent driver assistance. After entering a specific section of the road, the vehicle will actively prompt the driver to turn on this function, under the premise of ensuring that the driver is looking at the road ahead, stabilize the car and keep the vehicle in the middle of the lane. Combined with the vehicle-road collaboration function of the fourth-generation Lincoln SYNC+ Intelligent Travel Interconnection System, it integrates and calculates information such as traffic lights and traffic signs to further improve active safety.
Speaking of the interior, in addition to the luxurious texture that the brand has always appealed for, Lincoln Z pays more attention to the intimate love of many new technologies, such as the largest 1.8-meter welcome blanket in Lincoln history that will be lit up when the user approaches the vehicle, and the 128-color dynamic atmosphere light, Revel sound, time-space mechat function, fragrance system that can be fine-tuned after entering the cockpit, etc., which can also be operated through a situational way.
As for the ride space... 2930mm long wheelbase, still troublesome?
As mentioned earlier, this year is the 100th anniversary of the Lincoln brand, and in the past, it was more or less saddled with the image of American luxury in products, but starting from Z, Lincoln showed a posture of actively listening to the needs of young consumers, so that Z showed a completely different product style than before. As Chen Anning, president and CEO of Ford China, said: "Lincoln Z, like the current young Chinese group, the future is unlimited and beyond imagination!" ”
Well...... What will the future of Lincoln products look like? The transition from the traditional MKZ to the radical Z seems to have given part of the answer...
At the end of the article, I would like to add that the Lincoln brand was founded in 1917 by Henry M. Leland, but was incorporated into the Ford Group in 1922. The century-old history of this remark is from this era!
Come all come, don't you like it?
