Ford Korea has released the 2009 Lincoln MKS to the South Korean market today. The MKS is the flagship model of the Lincoln Korea line-up, which also consists of the MKX crossover and MKZ sedan. The MKS packs a plethora of premium features such as Adaptive Cruise Control, SecuriCode™ keyless entry, Adaptive HID Headlamps, Easy Fuel™ Capless Fuel-Filler System, voice-activated Microsoft SYNC™ infotainment system, and THX II-grade 12-channel 16-speaker 600-watt premium sound system with 10-inch subwoofer. The MKS is powered by a new 3.7L Duratec V6 that churns out 277 horsepower. It is mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission.
Perhaps the most attractive and groundbreaking part of the MKS is its retail price. The MKS is priced at 55.2 million Won (USD$42,856), which is a shattering blow to the import and domestic luxury car segment in Korea. Comparatively, the Ssangyong Chairman W(w/ 3.6L 250 hp) goes for 63 million Won, Hyundai Genesis BH330 (w/ 3.3L 262 hp) for 55 million Won, and GM Daewoo Veritas (w/ 3.6L 252 hp) for over 58 million Won.
