Lincoln Continental concept
Continental concept is the ultimate expression of American Luxurious life style
and Lincoln Mercury President Brian Kelley and Design Director Gerry McGovern
unveiled the culmination of nearly two years of research and development. Continental
is a powerful but understated executive car with unique proportions that optimize
space for the elegant, sophisticated and supremely comfortable interior. The design
embraces features from Lincoln's past, such as center opening doors, but the execution
is thoroughly modern.

The powered center-opening doors are triggered by remote or simply by a touch
of the flush aluminum door handles. Light generated by a single source is transferred
to each lamp by fiber optic cable. The technology requires less power than conventional
halogen bulbs but produces two and a half times more light. The rear roof pillar
is precisely angled to provide the utmost privacy to rear seat passengers. Built-in
laptop tables stow in the console. The case holders built into the front seat
backs fold down to allow an attache to be opened without removing it from the
sleeve. A cabinet between the rear seats houses crystal and a drinks dispenser.
Each rear door has a large umbrella holder and compartments that can be personalized.
