The Lincoln C is a concept car manufactured by the Lincoln division of Ford, which was unveiled at the 2009 North American International Auto Show.[1]

It included a 1.6 liter EcoBoost engine rated at 180 horsepower (134 kW) and 180 pound-feet (244 N⋅m) of torque, with a dry dual-clutch PowerShift 6-speed transmission. The Ford Sync system features a female avatar called Eva, which can be customized.[2]

A production version of the Lincoln C concept has not been officially announced or unveiled, but the concept remains on the official Lincoln web site as a "future vehicle".[3] With Ford having canceled the Mercury brand and investing heavily in Lincoln,[4] a Focus-based compact Lincoln is expected to appear for the 2014 model year as a compact CUV.[5][6]
