Lincoln Confirms New China-Made SUV To Suit Local Consumers (photos)

Lincoln plans to produce luxury SUVs in China by late 2019, as it steps up its move into the world's largest auto market and aims to catch up with German and U.S. rivals that already manufacture here. The plan is to build an all-new SUV to suit Chinese tastes, Lincoln China said in a statement. Ford Motor Co. plans to use an existing assembly plant it jointly operates with Chongqing Changan Automobile Co. to produce the Lincoln vehicles, a Ford spokesman in Shanghai said. Lincoln China President Amy Marentic told Reuters in October that the brand was studying whether to produce cars locally in China. Lincoln was accelerating its entry into China with plans to have 65 Lincoln stores by the end of 2016, instead of previous plans of 60, with 80 planned for year end 2017, she said.

The Autobiography’s Life Story, Told Biographically For an extra whiff of, well, speed, Land Rover has bestowed upon the SVAutobiography the very same 550-hp 5.0-liter supercharged V-8 used in the high-performance Range Rover Sport SVR. The previous ne plus ultra Range Rover, the long-wheelbase Autobiography Black, made do with a 510-hp version of the same engine. We’d say an extra 40 horsepower and 41 lb-ft of torque (the SV has 502 lb-ft!) would be a useful upgrade on its own, but Land Rover didn’t stop there. The long-wheelbase-only SV also inherits a new exhaust system with “a subtly enriched engine note,” Brembo front brake calipers, and a new front grille featuring a Graphite Atlas (gray) finish and polished chrome garnishes.

(A short-wheelbase Range Rover we tested with the 510-...
