Lincoln MKT

The Lincoln MKT is a full-size luxury crossover SUV with 3-row seating marketed by the Lincoln division of Ford Motor Company over a single generation from 2010-2019. Marketed between the Lincoln MKX (renamed the Lincoln Nautilus) and the Lincoln Navigator, the MKT shared its Ford D4 chassis with the Ford Flex CUV and the 2011-2019 Ford Explorer. After the 2019 model year, Ford stopped using its D3/D4 chassis, discontinuing the MKT and counterparts. Within the Lincoln model range, the MKT was not directly replaced. The MKT was assembled by Ford of Canada at its Oakville Assembly facility at Oakville, Ontario, Canada.
