74 December 2014 www.womanthismonth.com ARRIVE IN STYLE Almoayyed Motors, the distributor of Lincoln in Bahrain, launched the new model in sophisticated style at the Lincoln Woman This Month Fashion Show held at Block 338 in Adliya. The glitzy show saw members of the Almoayyed family, dignitaries, VIPs, petrol heads and fashionistas gather to catch a glimpse of the tech-savvy new MKC, which combines elegance, comfort, power and good looks. Designed to inspire, the revamped model aims to change the way people look at Lincoln, its makers say. The sporty-looking 2015 MKC’s engine lives up to the promises its exterior design makes. Under the bonnet is a 2.0-litre EcoBoost engine that produces 240 horsepower at 5,500rpm and 270lb-ft of torque at 3,000rpm. With a revamped design, the MKC portrays elegance in a sporty way, yet manages to carry on the DNA that has made Lincoln such a popular brand in the market since its creation. From its signature split-wing grille defined by high-intensity discharge headlights to its hands-free, wraparound lift gate featuring full-width LED tail lamps, the MKC stands out from the small premium utility crowd. The car’s high beltline and low shoulders create a sturdy, athletic presence; its pedestal side mirrors give a hint of elegance. Features such as soft exterior lighting and an available Panoramic Vista glass roof add to the car’s luxurious ambience. The onboard gadgets and gizmos are the area where this model shines brightest. MKC has an ‘approach detection’ feature that can sense an approaching owner from up to nine feet away and respond by illuminating ‘welcome mats’ on the ground next to the front doors, along with the headlamps and door handle pockets. It also utilises SYNC with MyLincoln Touch, a tool that enhances interaction by using voice and touch commands to control different media. The vehicle is equipped with a collision warning brake support, a lane-keeping system and a driver’s assist to help avoid common accidents. It also introduces new Park Out Assist that helps drivers manoeuvre out of tight parking spaces. A Blind Spot Information System continuously monitors blind spots using high-tech radar sensors. This model’s blend of innovative designs and useful technologies aims to make ownership a tasteful experience. Prices start from BD17,000.
