The Lincoln LS, a mid-size luxury sedan produced by the Ford Motor Company from the 2000 to 2006 model years, marked a significant departure for the brand, aiming to attract a younger, more performance-oriented demographic. Built on the Ford DEW platform, shared with the Jaguar S-Type and the Ford Thunderbird, the LS featured a sleek, European-inspired design with a long hood, a raked windshield, and a sporty, low-slung stance. While the LS borrowed some components from its Ford and Jaguar cousins, it was distinctively Lincoln in terms of its styling and interior appointments.
The LS offered a range of powerful V8 engines, including a 3.9-liter V8 with 239 horsepower and a 4.6-liter V8 with 302 horsepower in the standard model. A 390-horsepower, supercharged 4.6-liter V8 was also available in the high-performance LS V8 model. The LS was praised for its comfortable and refined ride, its luxurious interior, and its impressive handling, making it a compelling competitor in the luxury sedan market. Despite its success, the LS was discontinued in 2006, leaving a void in Lincoln's lineup until the introduction of the MKZ in 2007. However, the LS remains a popular choice among enthusiasts, appreciated for its unique blend of luxury, performance, and style.
