Lincoln Town Car Summary
The Lincoln Town Car is an iconic luxury vehicle. Long considered the traditional all-American car, it's is a popular choice for high-end transport services and business professionals.
There are several models available to suit your needs. The Lincoln Town Car coupe (two-door), produced in the 1980s, is for drivers who love classic cars, and the four-door sedan offers a more modern take on the vehicle's trademark elegance. The Lincoln Town Car is also available as a stretch limousine, for those who enjoy travelling in style or are looking for a business vehicle.
Lincoln Town Car Safety
The Lincoln Town Car is exceptionally safe. From 1992 onward, standard safety features included:
- Four-wheel anti-lock braking system (ABS) and traction control to prevent skids when braking suddenly
- Driver, passenger and front side airbags are included in all models
- On/off switch on the passenger-side airbag to make travel safer for younger passengers
Rear parking sensors and four-wheel disc brakes for more precise braking come standard in all models from the 2003 model year.
All models have impressive crash test ratings. The 2003 Lincoln Town Car received five stars in all safety categories from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
Lincoln Town Car Interior
The sedan seats up to six occupants, with split front and rear seats. Depending on the trim level, later models have a selection of luxurious interior options available, ranging from the years 2003-2011, such as:
- Programmable, power adjustable pedals enable quick adjustment for multiple drivers
- Premium leather seats
- Keyless entry
- Dual-zone climate control, so passengers can set their own temperature
- Power lumbar support
- Heated seats
- Remote audio and climate control
- Leather-wrapped steering wheel
Even old models always had luxury in mind—the Executive trim way back in the 2000 model year came with leather, power-adjusted front seats with power recliners.
Lincoln Town Car Technology
While the Lincoln Town Car lacks certain tech features, it still has a lot to offer. Among the 2011's configurations are keyless entry, dual-zone automatic climate control, an auto-dimming rearview mirror and an eight-speaker stereo.
From 2006, the available navigation system and THX-certified audio system make for a safe and entertaining ride.
Lincoln Town Car Space
Another area the Lincoln Town Car is renowned for is space. Later models around the latter half of the 2000s are near the top of their class, offering as much as 21 cubic feet of trunk space. A low deck height makes it easy to load as well, especially for shorter drivers. Passengers also benefit from an above-average 45 inches of legroom in the front and a minimum of 41 inches in the back, making the Lincoln Town Car particularly convenient for tall drivers.
Lincoln Town Car Comfort
Drivers praise the comfort offered by the Lincoln Town Car's interior, especially the heated, leather-lined front seats that come standard in later models. The pedals can be adjusted, so no matter your height, you're sure to drive in a comfortable position.
You don’t need to worry about road noise either, thanks to the car’s body-on-frame construction, which works to mute external sounds as well as any transmission noise. Accurate steering and responsive braking make driving a joy on the highway and in urban settings.
