Are you looking to downsize from your gas-guzzling Navigator? Lincoln is proposing the C Concept, a small four-door luxury car for chic urbanites.

The C Concept features a turbo 1.6-litre engine with Ford's EcoBoost technology as well as a dual-clutch 6-speed transmission. Output is rated at 180 horsepower and 180 lb-ft of torque, and according to Ford, the car achieves 5.5 L/100 km on the highway.


The little Lincoln also gets a host of modern interior gadgets, such as Internet connectivity with a built-in camera. The cockpit is as luxurious as any Lincoln's, as well as a lot of space for four.

The car's styling is bold features the brand's waterfall corporate face and an absence of B-pillars. The rear doors open towards the back to remind us of the 1961 Continental and help access the rear seats. The C Concept has the length of a Ford Focus and the width of a Lincoln MKZ.
