LINCOLN
Ford's luxury vehicle branch, Lincoln (formerly the Lincoln Motor Company), is a division of the American automaker Ford. Lincoln was positioned alongside its General Motors competitor Cadillac as one of the premier luxury vehicle brands in the United States. With the 1940 Lincoln Continental, the division contributed to establishing the personal luxury automobile market.
Lincoln's current product lineup includes luxury crossovers and sport utility vehicles. Lincoln has produced limousine and livery vehicles throughout its history, with numerous examples serving as official state limos for Presidents of the United States. Lincoln sold 188,383 automobiles worldwide in 2017. Lincoln automobiles are officially sold throughout the Middle East (excluding Iran and Syria), China, and South Korea outside of North America.
In Vietnam, Lincoln is not a popular car brand due to its high cost, and at the same time, there is no genuine distributor, but all of them return home through private importers. Some outstanding Lincoln models imported to the country include Navigator L Black Label, Aviator. The price of Lincoln 2021 is currently much higher than competitors in the same segment.
