Lincoln Continental 2017 shown at Doha event

Almana Motors Company (AMC), the exclusive distributor for Ford and Lincoln in Qatar, showcased the stylish new and improved Lincoln Continental 2017 during the US National Day celebration at the St Regis, Doha.
The Continental 2017, which comes in four options and encapsulates a fusion of luxury and versatility that results in a first-class driving experience, was displayed at the event that celebrated all things American.
The Continental range, exclusively available from the Almana Motors showroom on Airport Road, includes the Lincoln Continental Reserve AWD, the Reserve FWD, the Continental Select and the Premiere, all of which come with improved technology and design features. The Reserve AWD option has a 3L GTDI V6 engine, delivering 400hp@5,750rpm, while the six-speed automatic transmission includes paddle shifters to suit driver preference and the electric assist parking brake increases safety and convenience.
The Continental Reserve FWD offers a 2.7L GTDI V6 engine, producing 335hp@5,700rpm. Both options come with the Lincoln signature metal grille as standard and the Reserve’s classy look is enriched by 20-inch polished aluminium wheels and illuminated door handles. In addition, the improved driver-assisted technologies, courtesy of the SYNC 3 voice recognition entertainment system, an attractive 8-inch touchscreen monitor with pinch capability and 360 camera and park assist, improve the appeal of the Reserve.
The Continental Select is driven by the advanced turbocharged 3.7L Ti-VCT V6 engine, while the power door cinch and remote start system are superior additional features.
Almana Motors also offers the Lincoln Premiere, which features the same 3.7L engine and transmission as the Select and 18-inch magnetic painted aluminium wheels.
Ian Ashley Partridge, General Manager, Almana Motors Company, said: “The Lincoln Continental is an iconic US product so it was an honour for Almana Motors to support and be part of such a prestigious event, in such a grand setting.
“Events such as this present the ideal platform to showcase the improved new Continental 2017 range. The Continental is the perfect combination of style, sophistication and comfort, all elements that fit perfectly with such an esteemed audience.”
