Lincoln today unveiled pricing for the all-new 2010 MKT model unveiled at the 2009 North American International Auto Show, with the base model to be available for $44,995 (including destination). The new MKT is expected to arrive in authorized dealerships in late 2009 at prices between $44,995 and $55,000, which places it “thousands less than a comparably equipped Audi Q7,” Lincoln said in a press statement, comparing the new model with its main rivals in the market.

And speaking of features, the 2010 Lincoln MKT is indeed a very well equipped model, with the base variant sporting an impressive lineup of standard equipment. Here are the main standard features of the base front-wheel drive MKT model, as provided by Lincoln:

  • SelectShift six-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifts
  • Eight-inch, color touch-screen for audio and HVAC control
  • Rear view camera
  • 20-GB hard drive for music jukebox music storage
  • Intelligent Access with Push Button Start
  • SecuriCode Keyless Entry Keypad
  • Adaptive Headlamps with High-Intensity Discharge (HID) Lamps
  • Auto High Beams
  • Rain-Sensing Wipers
  • Reverse-sensing parking assist system
  • Power opening / closing rear liftgate
  • 12-way powered, heated-and-cooled front row seating
  • Adjustable pedals
  • Heated second-row seats
  • Three-zone HVAC
  • Ambient lighting
  • Panoramic Vista Roof featuring two large glass panels
  • 19-inch Premium Painted aluminum wheels
  • Integrated spotter mirrors

On the other hand, the all-wheel drive version with normally-aspirated 3.7-liter engine will be available for $46,990. “Compared to a similarly priced Acura MDX (the segment leading in sales volume), the Lincoln MKT offers far more interior space, better highway fuel economy and features consumers want, such as adjustable pedals, rain-sensing wipers, auto high beams and the connectivity of SYNC,” Lincoln praised its model.

Customers who want even more comfort and luxury can always opt for the Elite Package, available for $5,000, which includes a number of advanced features, as it follows:

  • Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
  • Collision Warning with Brake Support
  • Blind Spot Information System (BLIS)
  • Cross Traffic Alert
  • Voice-activated Navigation
  • Power-opening Panoramic Vista Roof

The top MKT, equipped with a 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost 355 horsepower engine, all-wheel drive system and all the aforementioned features will be priced at $55,000.
