The 2017 Lincoln Continental is bound to make a huge splash in the market without having to make too much noise about its arrival. After all, it is stunningly elegant on its own, graced with poise that’s hard to miss.

There are a lot of people who covet this four-door luxury sedan, and once you see what’s in store for you here, it wouldn’t be all too difficult to imagine why that is the case. After all, it looks every bit as high class as some of the other big players in the league.

Engine Specs

The Continental looks very handsome under the hood, all right, thanks to the twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 engine with some 400 horsepower capabilities and 400 pound-feet of torque. It features a front-wheel-drive platform, but you can actually upgraded this to an all-wheel drive if you’d like. Transmission is a six-speed SelectShift Automatic, which can come with paddle shifters included.

Apart from that, there’s also the option to drive a naturally aspirated 3.7-liter V-6 engine instead--which is said to most likely be offered as the standard--and a 2.7-liter turbocharged V-6. Both will be getting a six-speed automatic transmission, and an option between front-wheel and all-wheel drive.

Steering and suspension settings will also vary depending on which kind of drive mode you choose: Normal, Comfort, Sport. There’s also the optional adaptive steering, which further improves car handling and responsiveness to driver commands.

The Matter of Safety

Your driving experience is made better with the help of active-safety systems, such as adaptive cruise control, pre-collision assist with pedestrian detection, and a 360-degree camera that lets you see the entire perimeter of your car making for a more accurate parallel parking.

Airbags are strategically placed within the cabin, of course, and seats are made comfortable. You can even get a massage feature if you get the rear seating package. All in all, it’s not just the implemented devices that make a 2017 Lincoln Continental ride a memorable one, but also the comfort you’ll get inside.

Entertainment Value

To help you achieve an even more enjoyable ride, there’s also the infotainment system ready for your use. The Revel audio system is quite the pleasant companion, especially with the impressive acoustics of the cabin, thanks to the good insulation implemented in this model. You can also choose from three listening modes, namely Stereo, Audience, and On Stage.

Those awaiting the arrival of the 2017 Lincoln Continental can look forward to a fall release, but you can already go ahead and find out more about it by setting an appointment with Lincoln dealers serving Lafayette, LA, and other nearby areas.
