Lincoln has unveiled its new concept of future electric SUV. Despite of the perfect conceptual design, seems building such a car is not possible, at least in near future. However great steps for company toward electric world. Let’s introduce Lincoln Star.
At first glance, its not hard to see it will be a luxurious vehicle. The mission is just showing the framework of future electric cars of this company. As Lincoln promised, we could see thre of them before 2025. This company aimed “sanctuary” for passengers by sight, sound, and smell.
Star Concept gives you a great sight of surrounding, not by cameras, in fact by glassy surface around the car. Also, inside the vehicle is designed with lightning on the floor and door panels. The A-pillars displays metal latticework just like the D-pillars at the back. The floor of the front trunk extends into the first row of seats, and the hood is composed of electro-chromatic glass that lets light in while driving, then tints when parked to conceal whatever's inside. Also, as the front seats are rotatable its possible to can a small meeting inside with outdoor look.
Lincoln announced three modes for this car as “rejuvenation moods” . that’s the natural daily balance of human life – morning, day, and evening. In fact, these modes are the real meaning to the sight, sound, and smell. The Costal Morning mode provides warm light, oceanic sounds, and a fragrance reminiscent of sea mist. Mindful Vitality is for a cousy afternoon with flowery smells, upbeat sounds, and glowing light. And the final mode is Evening Chill, evergreen smell with an evening soundtrack and night sky video.
Want to play a video? There are two displays for the rear-seat passengers and a screen spanning the width of the cabin in front. The small screen is also attached to the center of dashboard. As its is just a concept by now, don’t expect too much from it but company promised the most perfect Lincoln Intelligence System with V2V communications, driver assists, and connected services.
This concept will open a new window to the future of company. Lincoln President, Joy Falotico stated:
"It is an excellent example of how we are redefining luxury for the next generation as we work to transform the vehicle into a third space – a true place of sanctuary – for our clients."
don’t search for the under the hood- specs. It’s a concept so far. But for sure we could guess an all-wheel-drive feature.
