Choosing the Performance of Your Lincoln Continental
When you choose the Lincoln Continental as your next sedan, there's another vital choice you'll need to make: which engine do you go with? With three available engines, the Lincoln Continental's performance can be customized to fit your unique needs.
For instance, the standard 3.7L V6 produces a fair amount of power-305 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque, to be exact. If you want an ideal blend of power and efficiency, though, then go with the available 2.7L V6, which generates formidable power while achieving an EPA-estimated 18 city/27 highway MPG.1
For drivers who crave a sportscar-like performance, then choose the 3.0L V6. With this top-tier engine, the Lincoln Continental delivers 400 horsepower and 400 lb-ft of torque.
All three engines are mated to a quick-shifting 6-speed automatic transmission. Additionally, it comes with paddle shifters to give you an athletic feel to your drives.
Lincoln Continental Interior
Although it's a sedan, don't let that fool you-the Lincoln Continental rewards its drivers with a spacious cabin and abundant cargo space.
When you enter the cabin, you'll be impressed by the ample interior room. For instance, the headroom is generous, with 39.3 inches up front and 37.7 inches in the back. On even the longest of drives, you'll be able to stretch out and get comfortable thanks to the ample legroom. In fact, you'll have 44.4 inches of legroom up front and 41.3 inches of legroom in the back.
As for the rest of the interior space, let's take a look below:
- Hip Room (Front/Rear): 55.9 inches/54.8 inches
- Shoulder Room (Front/Rear): 58.3 inches/55.9 inches
- Cargo Room: 16.7 cubic feet
