The Lincoln Continental Mark V is a personal luxury coupe that was sold by the Lincoln-Mercury division from the 1977 to the 1979 model years. Derived from the same chassis of its Mark IV predecessor, the Mark V was the largest member of the Lincoln Mark series ever produced. With an average of 75,000 units sold in each year available, the Mark V is also the best-selling version of the entire Mark series.

1978: $12,099 (72,602 sold)

Mechanically, a wider radiator was fitted for better engine cooling, a modified transmission torque converter, and a freer flowing exhaust. The electrical system gained a maintenance-free battery and an electronic voltage regulator. A slightly smaller gas tank was fitted. The base 400-cubic-inch engine was detuned to 166 horsepower.

While the two choices of aluminum alloy wheels were unchanged from 1977, base model wheel covers were redesigned from a flat disc appearance to a more three-dimensional shape. Wire wheel hubcaps were introduced for the first time on all Lincolns as a $233 option this year. (See above slide show for pictures).

A $900 “carriage roof” option which simulated the look of a convertible top was introduced for ’78. Made out of vinyl textured to resemble canvas type grain, it covered the whole roof and featured fake top braces and stitching. It was quite convincing.

A digital Miles To Empty gauge ($125) was a new option that calculated the number of miles a driver could theoretically travel before running out of gas. While computer controlled fuel injection was never an option on Mark Vs, a rudimentary on-board system used engine vacuum pressure instead to guestimate fuel economy, then multiplied that by the amount of fuel remaining in the tank. While crude compared to today’s standards, it was the first use of a digital gauge showing a mechanical function in any production car.

A limited production Mark V “Diamond Jubilee” Edition was offered to celebrate Ford Motor Company’s 75th anniversary. Available in light blue and gold metallic colors, Diamond Jubilees cost $8,000 extra and featured every available option. Unique body color matching of the turbine spoke alloy wheels was a feature unique to Diamond Jubilee editions. 5,159 were produced. Note: similar Diamond Jubilee packages were offered on the 1978 Ford Thunderbird.

The optional C.B. radio ($321) was redesigned to feature a digital display for channel numbers.

Ford hybrid sales rebound following MPG controversy

Sun, 31 Aug 2014

Ford hybrid customers apparently have very short memories. With two EPA fuel economy reratings in the last year, sales of the C-Max, Fusion Hybrid and Lincoln MKZ haven't been too terribly dented, Ward's Auto reports.
All three vehicles saw sales dips following the August 2013 rerating, although sales of the MKZ Hybrid had begun to rebound as early as November of that year. C-Max sales, meanwhile, took slightly longer, with sales on a steadily improving course as early as February of this year.
The second rerating, in June of this year, has had an even smaller effect on the Blue Oval's hybrids. The C-Max has actually been subject to a sales increase, while both the MKZ and Fusion saw minor sales drops (less than 400 units between the two in the month following the rerating).

Honda, Volvo, Lincoln are North American Car, Utility and Truck of the Year

Mon, Jan 15 2018

The Detroit Auto Show has officially kicked off, as it always does, with the announcement of the North American Car, Utility Vehicle and Truck of the Year winners. For 2018, those are the Honda Accord, Volvo XC60 and Lincoln Navigator, respectively. The Honda Accord beat out two other finalists, the Toyota Camry and the new Kia Stinger. The Accord stood out for its styling, drivability and standard equipment. The Volvo XC60 came out ahead of the Alfa Romeo Stelvio and Honda Odyssey minivan. It was chosen for its luxury, ride and value when equipped well. The Lincoln Navigator, a heavily updated model that remained true to the concept car on which it was based, beat the Ford Expedition, as well as the only pickup in the list, the Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 (which was a finalist for Autoblog's own Technology of the Year Award). NACTOY juror Ron Sessions complimented the "more dramatic update" compared to the Expedition. "With its design now aligned with the Continental, the Navigator becomes an even more important image — and the profit-maker for Lincoln," he said. The NACTOY Awards have been around since 1994. A panel of 60 judges, all automotive journalists, whittle the list down to three finalists in each category before announcing the winners in January. The Utility Vehicle category was added for 2017.

Ford is recalling more Takata airbag-equipped Ford and Lincoln models

Thu, Mar 2 2017

The Basics: Takata, the beleaguered airbag supplier at the root of the largest recall in automotive history, has informed Ford of a problem with the airbags in just over 30,000 Ford and Lincoln models. The problem is not related to the non-desiccated ammonium nitrate airbag inflators that plague the other airbags ( including many Fords), meaning there isn't a risk of shrapnel flying out from the units in this particular recall. The Problem: In the event of an accident, the front airbags may only partially inflate, and the airbag may become detached from the module because of misaligned parts. The problem affects 2016 and 2017 Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX models built at the Oakville Assembly Plant. The issue also affects 2017 Lincoln Continentals that were built at the Flat Rock Assembly Plant. Injuries/Deaths: In a release, Ford stated that it is not aware of any accidents, injuries, or deaths related to the airbag issue. The Fix: Dealers will replace the driver-side front airbag module at no cost. If You Own One: Sit tight and wait for Ford to notify owners. When that happens, take your car to the dealer for a replacement. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
