If you're a driver in the Chalfont, Doylestown, or Warminster areas looking for a versatile SUV, you're probably curious about the 2019 Lincoln MKC specs. Specifically, you may be wondering about the muscle that's hard at work under the hood of this vehicle's sophisticated exterior.
To give you a little tour of what's going on behind the scenes, our team at Fred Beans Lincoln put together this overview of the Lincoln MKC performance specs.
2019 Lincoln MKC Engine Specs
The 2019 Lincoln MKC makes two turbocharged engines available:
- 2.0L turbo I-4
This engine gets you an output of 245 horsepower and 275 lb-ft of torque. It also achieves an EPA-estimated fuel economy of 19 MPG city and 25 MPG highway, or 20 MPG city and 27 MPG highway, depending on your drivetrain.1
- 2.3L turbo I-4
The available 2.3L engine upgrades your horsepower to 285 and generates 305 lb-ft of torque. This engine also gets you an EPA-estimated fuel economy of 18 MPG city and 25 MPG highway.1 It can tow up to 3,000 pounds when properly equipped.
If you're wondering how such powerful engines can get so many miles per gallon, you'll find part of your answer in the standard Auto Start-Stop Technology. This helps improve your city fuel economy by powering down your engine during extended stops at lights or in heavy traffic. When you hit the accelerator, your engine will seamlessly spring back to life.
Lincoln MKC Transmission
Both available engines come paired with a 6-speed SelectShift® automatic transmission that gives you the control of a manual with the convenience of an automatic. This transmission shifts automatically, providing optimized performance and efficiency.
However, if you want to take over your shift schedules, you have that option, too, and you can do so without taking your hands off the wheel. Simply pull on the paddle shifters mounted on either side of your steering wheel to manually shift up or down as you see fit.
When you reach your destination, the push-button shift transmission allows you to shift from drive to park (and back again) using buttons on the dashboard. This keeps your center console clean by doing away with the traditional lever shifter.
Drivetrain and Handling
With the 2019 Lincoln MKC, you'll have two drivetrain options. Front-wheel drive (FWD) comes standard with the 2.0L engine. However, if you want improved handling capabilities, we recommend opting for the available Intelligent All-Wheel Drive (AWD) system.
This system actively monitors your driving conditions and automatically redistributes torque among all four wheels as necessary to enhance your traction on snowy, rainy, or muddy roadways.
If you have a rough road ahead, you can enjoy the Adaptive Suspension, as well. This feature is included with the AWD system and actively adjusts your suspension to smooth out a bumpy ride.
The Intelligent AWD system also comes with Lincoln Drive Control. This allows you to choose from three drive modes-Comfort, Normal, and Sport-to get the kind of drive you want. Sport mode, for example, tightens your suspension tuning, firms up steering calibration, and turns up the volume on your engine to provide a thrilling driving experience.
