My MKC lease expires in 9 months. The new Escape has been greatly upgraded and may be a better value than the MKC. Does anyone have any insights into the 2017 MKC content?
They still want to still 2016s since they are still being built into March! 2017s wont hit inventory until April so the web site may update by May/June. This news comes from fleet buyers (like Hertz) who have a longer lead-time. The ability to order now may also be fleet buyers only so the dealer may not have the official wordI find it amazing tha there is nothing on the internet from Lincoln especially since you can now order one. May be talking to a Lincoln dealer this weekend.
Summer is usually the normal model change over but the 2017 Escape rollout also appears to impact the MKC from what I see.. Since the Escape and the MKC are kinda joined at the hip I suspect the plant update I saw that mentions MKC also is correct. Someone at a dealer did report seeing an order guide for the 2017 MKC which would be way early if the 2017 were due in summer.Lincoln dealership owner tells me production of 2017 MKC starts early summer.
HHave tried to order. Dealers do not have order guide or pricing. Lincoln Lease has no pricing.
Apparently only fleets have info..except Concierge was able to give order codes and info..but no pricing.
2017 2.0 requires premium??More specs and pricing on the 2017 model:
New 2017 Lincoln MKC 4dr All-wheel Drive Premiere | Advantage Ford Henderson NC
According to that pdf, it calls for premium unleaded gas now: Fuel Type Premium unleaded.....
