Lincoln concept cars.

Lincoln C

The Lincoln C is a concept car manufactured by Lincoln, which was unveiled at the 2009 North American International Auto Show.

It included a 1.6 liter EcoBoost engine rated at 180 horsepower (134 kW) and 180 pound-feet (244 N⋅m) of torque, with a dry dual-clutch PowerShift 6-speed transmission. The Ford Sync system features a female avatar called Eva, which can be customized.

A production version of the Lincoln C concept has not been officially announced or unveiled, but the concept remained on the official Lincoln website as a "future vehicle." With Ford having canceled the Mercury brand and investing heavily in Lincoln, Ford canceled the C concept and its successor was the Lincoln MKC concept unveiled in 2013.


Lincoln Continental Concept

2002 (Los Angeles Auto Show)
The Lincoln Continental concept vehicle was created in 2002 by Lincoln for the 2002 Los Angeles Auto Show, complete with coach doors and a 362 cu in (5.9 L) specially modified Ford Modular V12 engine producing 414 bhp (309 kW) at 6000 rpm and 413 lb⋅ft (560 N⋅m) at 5270 rpm. The car's design and suicide doors are a nod to the earlier 4th generation cars. The car never went beyond the concept stage.

2015 (New York Auto Show)
Introduced at the 2015 New York International Auto Show, the Lincoln Continental concept car was designed as the next flagship sedan of Lincoln. Reports from December 2014 and March 2015 indicated that Lincoln intended on showing the preview of the replacement for the current-generation Lincoln MKS. The concept ended up being the basis for the production 2017 Continental which went on sale in the fall of 2016.


Lincoln Futura

The Lincoln Futura is a concept car promoted by Ford's Lincoln brand, designed by Ford's lead stylists Bill Schmidt and John Najjar, and hand-built by Ghia in Turin, Italy — at a cost of $250,000 (equivalent to $2,300,000 in 2018).

Displayed on the auto show circuit in 1955, the Futura was modified by George Barris into the Batmobile, for the 1966 TV series Batman.

As of December 2017, exact replicas are being produced by Fiberglass Freaks, a company in Logansport, Indiana. The owner of Fiberglass Freaks has the license from DC Comics to produce the 1966 Batmobile Replicas. These vehicles are full-scale, road ready versions.


Lincoln MKR

The Lincoln MKR concept car was a premium 4-door fastback sedan design, as introduced during the 2007 North American International Auto Show by Lincoln. Its chassis was based on the Ford D2C platform as used in the Ford Mustang. The MKR signaled the next-generation of premium Lincoln vehicles, introducing the new TwinForce engine family and a restyled "bow wave" waterfall grill. The concept car was first unveiled to the media and the public in a press release on 1 January 2007.


Lincoln MKT 2009 concept

The Lincoln MKT was unveiled as a concept vehicle at the 2008 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, MI. Largely a preview of the upcoming production vehicle, it featured a full-length glass roof and a 2+2 seating layout. The MKT concept vehicle was announced to have the 415 hp 3.5 L Cyclone 35 V-6 variant of Ford's new EcoBoost engine family, which uses turbocharging and direct injection technologies to offer the power of larger displacement engines with the fuel economy of smaller engines.
