High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Lincoln MKT is a luxury crossover utility vehicle, first unveiled as a concept vehicle at the 2008 North American International Auto Show. It entered production at the Oakville Assembly plant in July 2009 as a 2010 model. It shares the same crossover D4 platform as the Ford Flex with seating for up to 7 in 3 rows. It has an entirely different body with design cues from the Lincoln MKR concept car, and the Lincoln MKS. The concept MKT vehicle was announced with a 415 hp 3.5 L V6 version of Ford's new EcoBoost engine family - a turbocharged gasoline direct injection system, which features the horsepower capability of a larger displacement engine, with the fuel economy of a smaller engine. The production version is to be launched with a normally aspirated 270 hp 3.7 L Duratec 37 V6 as used in the MKS sedan, and a twin turbocharged 3.5 L EcoBoost engine rated at 355 hp (also from the MKS). Both engines are mated to a 6-speed 6F automatic transmission.
