My husband and I test drove a base Lincoln MKC to compare it to our RDX, both base models.
Our impressions: 1. It is smaller with a much tighter back seat leg area. The salesman had to sit sideways to fit in with the front seats only mid way back. The hatch area is narrower and not as deep 2. It has much nicer quality seats, memory driver side, better leather and a fully ADJUSTABLE passenger seat, so nice to not sit in the cave. But they are very narrow in the bottom seat area. If a person is on the heavy side, there would be no way to sit in the seats without spilling over the sides. 3. The base comes with black interior only, have to upgrade to have a choice in color. 4. No sun roof, again have to upgrade to a more expensive package. 5. No turn signal lights on outside of rear view mirrors. 6. Much larger screen for rear view camera, better camera view than RDX. 7. Has voice commands, on screen controls and button sound and air controls.
The ride is smoother and less bumpy than the RDX, feels like it's sitting on the road better, some might call it too soft, I liked it. Handling seemed about the same, smaller engine but it's turbo so the power felt about the same. Mileage also similar.
As I said, the above is about the base entry model, which is priced between 33K and 35K (depending on small add ons). They have a few major package upgrades in between this one and their fully loaded model, about 48K. 48K for a Lincoln, not my 48K.
Anyway, it's a nice small suv, they give some things we are missing, and take away some others. Just for the better seats and the adjustable passenger seat, I'd seriously consider it.
