2012 Lincoln MKT Review

2012 Lincoln MKT Review  - Reviews - Lincoln MKT

The MKT is an impressive combination of performance, utility, technology and even affordability among its competition — and I want one in my driveway.

When I reviewed the MKT when it debuted for 2010, I was smitten with the massive, pseudo-luxury people-hauler. Sure, its looks are beyond polarizing. Considering I'm one of the only Cars.com editors who likes the styling, I'd say you have a one in 10 chance of finding someone of a similar mind. Good luck getting your spouse to sign up.

Not much about the MKT has changed for 2011, but that's typical just a year after a new car debuts. To check out the few changes, go here.
