Which Lincoln MKX trim should I buy?

The 2016 Lincoln MKX offers these trims:

• MKX: The base MKX starts the lineup with the model’s core luxury crossover setup, and it suits you if you want the entry point into the MKX experience.
• Reserve: The Reserve equipment package adds blind-spot warning with rear cross-traffic alert, making it the best-value choice if you want a stronger mix of comfort and safety equipment.
• Reserve with available packages: This version layers in the turbocharged 2.7-liter V6, all-wheel drive, and available upgrades such as the Technology, Driver Assistance, and Luxury packages, plus features like the 360-degree camera view and Enhanced Active Park Assist for buyers who want the most equipment.

What Lincoln MKX do most buyers choose?

The Lincoln MKX years with the most listings are 2017, 2016, and 2015.

Higher-listing years tend to draw more shopper attention because they give you more inventory to compare and more chances to find the right color, mileage, and equipment mix. They also tend to be the easiest years to shop quickly when you want a broader selection.

What is the Lincoln MKX's resale value?

Prices are moving down across every model year shown, which is good news if you're shopping used. The newer years are seeing the largest drops, while the older years are changing more gradually. That creates a favorable setup if you want a later-model MKX at a lower price than it commanded a year ago.

The 2014, 2015, and 2018 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.

Should I buy a used Lincoln MKX now or wait for the next model?

Buy now if:

• Price trend: The 2017 model is at −8.5% versus a year ago, and the 2016 model is at −8.7%.
• Deal availability: The 2017 model has 31.9% good and great deals, and the 2016 model has 31.9%.
• Sweet-spot year: The 2017 model has the most listings at a current average price of $14,574. The Lincoln MKX offers a luxurious cabin, a smooth ride, and a comfortable, upscale driving experience that make it easy to live with every day.

Consider waiting if:

• Powertrain/efficiency: Opt for the turbocharged 2.7-liter V6 engine, and performance is not a problem. Generating 335 hp at 5,500 rpm, the EcoBoost engine upgrade doesn’t provide a big increase over the MKX’s standard 3.7-liter V6. Torque is the reason to drop $2,000 on this engine, to the tune of 380 lb-ft of the stuff at 3,000 rpm.
• Tech: My test vehicle had a MyLincoln Touch infotainment system. As 2015 draws to a close, the Lincoln website says that the 2016 MKX comes with Sync 3 technology, which is the company’s new-and-improved infotainment system with faster response time, improved voice-recognition technology, better graphics, and a touchscreen that works similarly to that of a smartphone.
• Safety: A blind-spot warning system with rear cross-traffic alert is included with the Reserve equipment package, a safety feature that will absolutely be installed on my own family’s next new vehicle.
• Starting price: $39,185

If you're buying used today, the 2017 model year offers the best mix of value and availability. If you want the latest tech and features, it may be worth waiting for 2019 inventory to mature.
