This will be the scheme popular on the way to electrification in countries in developing As the our, well still the infrastructure charging for vehicles 100% electric is not up to the Latest models what we have seen in the world.

Thus, Lincoln began more than a year ago with gradual electrification of its range, especially now that in his most are SUVs, incorporating in the top of the line versions a plug-in hybrid powertrain that will be the envy of many on the market.

It’s about a system who can give us a electric range of almost 50 km without spending a drop of gasoline, a figure that despite what sounds little in First instance, is more than enough to move us one or two days in the city and in the daily journeys without pollution direct.

The result is a luxury Vehicle, compact and elegant which at the same time is ecological, but he has the potential to get anywhere thanks to the gasoline engine, without having to worry by electrical recharges on the road.

The design remains practically the same to the rest of the range Corsair, with a picture modern and elegant, but at the same time compact and minimalist. The only difference is that now we have a second gate on the opposite side the gas cap, a charging port for the lithium ion batteries.

Inside we will find the traditional luxury of the brand American presidential. Skins, wood veneers, good plastics and very well achieved finishes. There is no doubt, the best quality in the brand in the last years, and despite sharing a platform with Ford Escape, here is better quality march, more equipment, luxury, and this version that can overcome the 50 km/l in average consumption.
