Talk:Lincoln MKX

Edit
I added all of its platform mates to the text since it didn't list all of them. Do you think it is too much? If so, I think we should just state the platform and maybe just the SUV's that are on the platform. Bok269 16:25, 11 June 2006 (UTC)


 * No, that's just fine. Usually we list all the vehicles that are related. Besides it might be interesting for readers to see that a vehicle is related to vehicles of another body style, in this case a crossover SUV w/ a sedan/car. Best Regards,  Signature brendel  23:47, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

Wow. Nice job, Lincoln.
The first external link goes straight to a flash movie that...err-hem...hangs and freezes when the MKX is clicked. Do we have a text/html-only link that works? Notostraca 00:57, 20 June 2007 (UTC) Never mind, I may have found a good one. I'm adding it next. http://www.lincoln.com/mkx/home.asp seems simpler than a page for three vehicles, right?

Merge with Ford Edge?
It would be most appropriate to merge this article with the Ford Edge; the vehicles are badge-engineered versions of each other. 842U (talk) 17:52, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
 * No. As you wont merge the Lexus ES with the Toyota Camry. Instead, this article needs expansion. --Aizuku (talk) 09:40, 23 January 2010 (UTC)

2007 - 2010 MKX
Where's the picture of the front end of the 2007 - 2010 MKX? Although the back-end shot looks nice, the front end of the 1st-generation vehicle looks MUCH BETTER than that of the 2nd generation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.92.169.156 (talk) 20:19, 6 April 2013 (UTC)

Should we rename this article as "Lincoln Nautilus"?
Hi all,

Do you think we should rename this article accordingly?

The 2016 Lincoln MKX got renamed as Nautilus last year even though it's essentially the same vehicle.

This is like how the 2009 Dodge Ram was renamed as Ram 1500, 2500, etc. shortly after it was introduced; there were also no significant changes at that time. Thus, its article was renamed from "Dodge Ram" to "Ram Pickup." However, the article still contained the previous generations when it was known as "Dodge Ram."

I think we should do it. Kaio mh (talk) 00:42, 7 December 2018 (UTC)


 * I'm going to disagree on this. As it stands, the Nautilus content in the article is largely non-existent (no image is available for use yet).  A redirect already exists, so the new model name doesn't lose anyone out there.  Renaming this article is definitely premature; a better course of action would be to split the 2019-forward content into a separate article to expand on its own (theoretically, we can do this with the 2007-2015 and 2016-present generations (the Nautilus is a mid-cycle facelift that was renamed); this is done with a number of (the largest) articles.    --SteveCof00 (talk) 20:29, 7 December 2018 (UTC)

Unlike the Ram where the vehicle had the same name but brand was changed the Nautilus is the MKX renamed and should be kept at Lincoln MKX at least for a while maybe in the future it could be moved but not right now Abote2 (talk) 11:13, 24 December 2018 (UTC)

No, do not rename the article. Let it stay MKX for the model years it was produced. State the fact that it was restyled amd renamed the Nautilus at the end of the article and provide a link to a separate article for the Nautilus. This is very different than the Lincoln MKZ which was originally the Zephyr for one model year only with no body design changes. Watchdevil (talk) 23:46, 28 December 2018 (UTC)

Requested move 28 December 2018

Not moved. I see no benefit to relisting this, as there is no sense of potential support for the proposed move at this time. bd2412 T 17:02, 4 January 2019 (UTC)

Lincoln MKX → Lincoln Nautilus – Not sure if I 100% support this move that I am requesting, but since this is the new name for the model, I would like to see how everyone feels about making a potential move. JE98 (talk) 16:17, 28 December 2018 (UTC)


 * Oppose page move Fundamentally, the Nautilus is a mid-cycle update of the second-generation MKX (as it says so right in the article). While there is an updated front fascia and newly introduced features, the CD4 platform architecture is retained; the Nautilus name change is largely for marketing purposes (Lincoln abandoning the "MK" nomenclature).  The above post explains things pretty well already, so I will not repeat again.  I will add that if a new generation of the Nautilus enters production (on an all-new different platform architecture), a creation of a stand-alone article can be discussed, but that is a few years down the road from now (a stand-alone article, not a merge).  --SteveCof00 (talk) 10:01, 29 December 2018 (UTC)

I find it acceptable to leave the page is as now until newer generations of the Nautilus are produced. As long as there is a redirect when searching Lincoln Nautilus to send it to the Lincoln MKX page then I see no problem. Watchdevil (talk) 18:41, 29 December 2018 (UTC)
