What’s a Lincoln MKS’s top speed?

I’m helping my grandpa shop for a new car and I want to make sure we get him something safe. Safety to me isn’t just about features—it’s about how fast the car can go, too. What’s the top speed of a Lincoln MKS?

! The
Lincoln MKS
is a great choice for your grandpa.
The Lincoln MKS’s top speed is only 80 mph because of the speed limiter installed by Lincoln. While 80 mph is still pretty fast, many cars have top speeds in excess of 120 mph. The Lincoln MKS’s top speed is one of the lowest top speeds you can find today.
Why would Lincoln limit the speed of their cars like this? Many car manufacturers limit top speeds because:
  • High speeds can damage the car
  • Speed limiters keep people safe
  • Limited top speeds keep the price of the vehicle down
