Overview

In 2007, Lincoln introduced the MKX as a mid-size luxury SUV based on the Ford Edge. However, in typical Lincoln fashion, the MKX offers far more in the way of luxury and comfort. Lincoln revamped the model in 2016, so its 2018 version doesn’t have too much in the way of major changes. However, the MKX is now available in a wider range of paint colors and features updates to Ford’s Sync 3 infotainment system.
The MKX is available in four trim levels with two powertrain choices, and buyers can choose between either front-wheel or all-wheel drive. The MKX Premiere is oddly the base model, which starts at just under $40,000. The range-topping Black Label model, however, easily pushes past $60,000 with all the bells and whistles added. All four models come standard with a 3.7-liter V6 engine that produces 303 horsepower. However, buyers can upgrade to an engine that offers both more power and better fuel economy. The smaller, 2.7-liter V6 is fitted with two turbochargers to provide 335 hp.
Both engines accompany a 6-speed automatic gearbox, which is notably down a gear (or three) compared to more sophisticated luxury SUVs. Both MKX engines run on regular gas, which is notable since many turbocharged vehicles require pricier premium fuel. The base 3.7-liter powertrain is rated at 17 city, 25 highway, 20 combined MPG with front-wheel drive, but all-wheel drive knocks the rating down to 16, 23, and 19, respectively. The twin-turbo unit is actually more frugal at 18, 25, and 20 MPG when combined with front-drive and 17, 24, 19 with all-wheel drive.
The MKX also doesn’t emphasize handling prowess as much as other offerings in this segment, but most crossover buyers don’t throw their SUVs around corners any more than they actually take them off road. The MKX does have an adaptive suspension with three driving modes to choose from.
The MKX’s interior isn’t gorgeous or stunning, but it feels pleasant and luxurious, improving drastically from the Ford Edge, which the car is based on. All MKXs come standard with 10-way power-adjustable and heated front seats, synthetic leather seats, and a 10-speaker stereo with subwoofer. A 22-way adjustable and massaging pair of front seats are offered as an optional upgrade. The Select model and higher trims add genuine leather seating and wood trimming.
The MKX Reserve adds features such as a panoramic sunroof, blind spot monitors, a heated steering wheel, and a built-in navigation system, and buyers can add a 19-speaker stereo and an autonomous parking feature. The highest trim, the MKX Black Label, adds top-shelf luxury and premium materials. In addition to upgrades like higher-quality leather and a cooling driver’s seat, Lincoln will also give you free car washes, annual detailing, and concierge services.
All trims of the 2018 MKX come with Ford’s latest Sync 3 infotainment system, which includes an 8.0-inch touchscreen, and all vehicles offer 37 cubic feet of cargo space with the rear seats up and 73 cubic feet with them folded.
Crash test results for the MKX are good, but not stellar. The NHTSA gives it a top five star rating overall, but the MKX only scored four stars for rollover. The IIHS, meanwhile, gives the MKX Top Safety Pick status, but only when equipped with optional automatic emergency braking, which is a feature that only comes in the fairly expensive Driver Assistance package, which bundles that with active lane control and adaptive cruise control. The only standard safety feature is a reversing camera.

The car is great. It has features beyond the outside appeal. I find new features upon each entry. It has a smooth , luxurious ride. Comfortable ! Oh my God, it’s like Heaven on wheels. The value was great. The Carfax showed that it had been well taken care of. I plan to do the same. I have found nothing missing as of now. I compared it to the new Nautilus and due to the economy at this time, a used vehicle is more for me. For the price, I am pleased.

Is the 2018 Lincoln MKX reliable?
Owners rate it 4.77/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.
The review feedback points to a vehicle that many owners feel good about living with over time, especially because of its comfort and smooth driving character. That kind of positive ownership experience often suggests you can count on it for daily use if the specific example has been maintained well. For used buyers, the main long-term ownership risk is less about the model’s appeal and more about choosing a well-kept example with a clean history and consistent maintenance.
What should I look for when buying a used 2018 Lincoln MKX?
At 68.4% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
You should run a vehicle history report before you commit, especially if the listing price looks unusually attractive. Put inspection priority on body condition, signs of prior repair, and how well the vehicle has been maintained overall. Because some owners mention fuel economy concerns when driven aggressively, it also makes sense to evaluate how the vehicle was used and whether its condition matches the seller’s description.

If you find a listing below $15,823, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2018 Lincoln MKX's resale value?
The current average of $15,823 sits slightly below last year's $17,675.
That price movement suggests the market has already adjusted downward, which can help you buy at a more favorable entry point. If you plan to resell later, the softer current pricing means your future value will depend heavily on how well you preserve condition and mileage. Strong presentation and a clean ownership record matter more when the market has already moved lower.
Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.77/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.
Should I buy a 2018 Lincoln MKX or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2018 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2018 if:
- 32.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- At 68.4% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 10.48% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 4.77/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
The bottom line: If you want the strongest mix of value and owner satisfaction, the 2018 is the primary year to focus on, especially if you can find one with a clean history and a price near the lower end of the range. If you're especially price-sensitive, keep a close eye on comparable listings and be ready to move quickly when you see a well-priced example with solid condition and documentation.
