Presidents (John F. Kennedy), Elvis Presley, and Clark Gable once rode in the luxury Lincoln Continental limousine. The American car, which was once the concept of luxury, collapsed when prestigious cars from Europe and Asia "invaded" America. Now the Lincoln Continental is back, albeit without its signature grille. It's been 13 years since it last rolled off the Ford factory, and the sedan, which debuted at the New York Auto Show, goes on sale in 2016.
Lincoln Continental, who was born long ago in 1938 and was at one time a car for presidents and in general the concept of luxury, returns to the scene. Otherwise, it has a rather modified and not entirely original appearance, as it seems that it borrowed some features from Jaguar, Chrysler and Audi, and with the famous signature. The most obvious change is that it is classic mask swapped for a narrower chrome one, but otherwise it's full of modern electronics and 21st century automotive goodies.
Here they are, for example LED headlights with laser high beams, yes camera with a 360-degree view, Revel Ultima sound system, roof with smart glass, which enables the generation of heat with the help of sunlight (also cooling the cabin) and air conditioning for the rear seats.
