Interestingly, MKT is used for fleet buyers and for funeral hearses. Lincoln said this model has its own purpose and a role to play. However, sales are nowhere near the Aviator model. The 2020 MKT crossover comes with a room for seven passengers and it offers a turbocharged V6 engine. However, changes and upgrades for 2020 are minor.

Exterior paints that are included are Tinted Clearcoat, White Platinum Metallic Tri-Coat, Ruby Red Metallic, and Ivory Pearl Metallic Tri-Coat. Moreover, you can opt for the Black Velvet, Blue Diamond, Ingot Silver, Burgundy Velvet Metallic and Iced Mocha Metallic.

This twin-turbo unit is producing 365 horsepower and 350 lb-ft of torque. Fuel economy is rated at 15 mpg in the city and 21 on the highway. That means the crossover delivers 17 mpg combined.
