Lincoln Continental is a medium-sized car under Lincoln, which belongs to the team of luxury medium-and large-sized cars with BMW 5-Series, Mercedes-Benz L-Class, Audi A6L and other models. Cold cars are planning to launch two medium-sized electric cars codenamed CDX746 and CDX747, which are similar in size to Ford's sharp Edge and the new Lincoln navigator Nautilus, both of which will be built on Ford's electric platform, which will go into production in late 2022 or early 2023, and Ford has asked suppliers to prepare to produce up to 65000 vehicles a year, but details of the two models are unclear.

The original plan was to start production at Ford's Cuautitl á n stamping and assembly plant in Mexico, but Ford Fiesta was already the first to produce at the plant, and eventually two new cars were decided to be produced at Ford's Flat Rock assembly plant south of Detroit, where the Lincoln Continental model production line will be replaced and Lincoln Continental production will be suspended. After the launch of the two new electric vehicles, they will compete on the same stage in Mercedes-Benz EQ, Mercedes-Benz Pure Electric, Audi e-tron and Tesla.

Ford plans to stop production of the Lincoln mainland in the United States by the end of 2021, but the large luxury car will be made in China, where all Lincoln cars are imported, according to two sources. It is not clear whether Ford will import Lincoln mainland from China to sell in the United States in the future. after all, Ford cancelled its plan to sell Chinese-made Fox Active in the United States last year because of tariff policy.

According to Ford's plan, in the next three years, Ford will launch more than 30 new models of Ford and Lincoln brands in the Chinese market, of which more than 10 are new energy models. At the same time, Ford leader EV will also become the first new energy product in the new product plan, and the new car will officially go on sale in China on the 25th of this month. The power leader EV is equipped with a motor with maximum power 120kW and peak torque 280N.m, and its mileage is 360km under NEDC conditions.
