2017 Lincoln Continental Overview

The 2017 Lincoln Continental is the flagship sedan in Lincoln's lineup. It's a full sized car, with plenty of room for back seat passengers as well as all their luggage. Prices start at around $45,000 with the most expensive trim levels still coming in below $60,000. The Continental's pricing puts it squarely in competition with mid-sized sedans from German luxury manufacturers such as the Audi A6 and the BMW 5-series. However, the Continental undercuts its German rivals from a value standpoint at every turn. Even with a base price a few thousand dollars less than either the Audi A6 or the BMW 5-series, the standard V6 engine in the base Continental is much more powerful than any of the turbocharged 4-cylinders offered on lesser versions of the German cars. The Lincoln also promises a much more serene driving experience, with a smaller emphasis on sport and a greater emphasis on ultimate comfort.
