Overview & Reviews
The optional navigation system gets a welcome upgrade for the 2009 Lincoln MKX. Graphics and menus have been improved, while voice activation and Sirius Travel Link are new additions this year. The standard Sync system now features 911 Assist, which automatically contacts 911 through your cell phone in the event of an airbag deployment.
- Comfortable and quiet ride, lots of standard features, spacious passenger quarters.
- Low-grade interior materials, no dynamic advantage over the Ford Edge, subpar braking performance, mediocre cargo capacity, inadequately cushioned front seats.

I love my MKX! - 2009 Lincoln MKX
By Kansas Mom - August 24 - 1:40 amI am very pleased with the mkx. It is fun to drive (I used to drive a full- size suv). The ride is so smooth. There is some wind noise, but not like Ive had with past vehicles. Id say its a very nice, quiet ride -- unless the stereo is on. Its a great system. My kids & I like to play the THX demo before we "take off." I like the way the car handles. Id recommend it to anyone shopping for a new vehicle. I chose this over the rdx and enclave (my top 3) and I am so so happy that I chose the Lincoln. I was worried about cargo room, but I have the space for everything Ive needed so far. The seats are real easy to fold down (and they recline!)if needed. Final words - I love my mkx!

Extremely Satisfied Buyer - 2009 Lincoln MKX
By cjoanne - February 18 - 6:36 amI have owned 2 SUV s in the past, and this is the type vehicle I like/need for my work. I researched the MKX along with Lexux, & Enclave, and chose MKX. Im glad I did, and would do it again in a heartbeat. I love this car! The handling of the car is tops on my list, and it looks great!

Shweeeeettttt Ride!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - 2009 Lincoln MKX
By tennisplaya - November 22 - 6:06 amI just bought the 2009 MKX with the Navigation, Sync, 20 inch wheels, and THXII sound. I am absolutely blown away that a 5-year-old car with 101,000 miles can still run like new and look like new. The ride is quiet and the creature comforts are outstanding. Heated/cooled seats in the front and heated rear seats as well as the panoramic sunroof and incredible sound system round out the excellent package. It holds the road well due to its wide stance. This has gota be one of the nicest used cars I have ever seen and driven.

My New MKX - 2009 Lincoln MKX
By James M - March 24 - 2:03 amI picked up my MKX leased vehicle on 3/20 with AWD and the luxury and technology is amazing. I had an SEL Edge for the prior two years, and liked it, but this is a whole other level.

Theres Hope for the Big 3! - 2009 Lincoln MKX
By MKXBob - December 12 - 5:33 amIt was very important to consider an American manufacturer with this purchase, and I have no regrets! Looked at just about every CUV on the market, and the MKX fit the bill. Dont let anyone tell you its just an Edge with a Lincoln grill in it. All the reviews that said that scared me away - finally a friend talked me into driving one, and then I was sold. Much smoother ride, nicer appointments, better warranty, quieter interior, and trans shifts better than the Edge. This vehicle really has exceeded my expectations in all regards - even fuel economy - have already averaged 24.6 mpg driving on the Northeast Extension thru Philly. Not too big, not too small - JUST RIGHT! No problems!

Fabulous Experience!! - 2009 Lincoln MKX
By Denita - January 31 - 11:46 amI shopped for >8 months for an SUV. I drove the Lexus, Infiniti, & Acura mid size & truly neither compared to the luxury of my MKX. The others are Just names and true Luxury does not have to come with a Huge Price. Lincoln MKX is Top Luxury!! Love it!

Very Pleased With My MKX! - 2009 Lincoln MKX
By Tim - February 11 - 4:10 pmThis car is very quite and comfortable. We had a Ford Explorer and the front room is comparable to the Explorer. The rear room is better than the Explorer. There are a lot of items the MKX has that are not available on the Ford Edge Limited such cooled seats, softer suspension, real wood interior trim, satellite radio, better seats and thicker carpet, and many other items. We are averaging 18 mpg in stop and go traffic. The car is solid and so far very reliable. It is a top safety pick and anyone in the market for a midsize crossover should drive an MKX before making a purchase.

Sweet Ride - 2009 Lincoln MKX
By Penney - August 14 - 9:13 amI gave my husband the MKX for his 50th birthday. He had always wanted a Lincoln and needs AWD to reliably make it to work. He loves this car. It is fun to drive, he likes the height, it is powerful and the computer is great. So far the computer had to be replaced at 15K because the blue tooth failed and the exterior driver side door handle came off in his hand at 17K. Lincoln replaced everything without charge but it was a hassle.
