Three variants of the MKS are available for 2010: the 3.7-liter V6 with
front-wheel or all-wheel drive, and the 3.5-liter turbocharged EcoBoost
engine with all-wheel drive only. The smaller engine produces 350 hp
and 350 lb-ft of torque, as compared to 273 hp and 270 ft-lbs of torque
from the normally aspirated 3.7-liter. All versions use a 6-speed
automatic transmission that can be upgraded to use
steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters.
The MKS uses a Macpherson strut in the front and independent rear
suspension for luxury-level ride comfort, plus 4-wheel disc brakes,
ABS, tire-pressure monitoring, traction control, reverse sensing
system, and electronic stability control. A rearview camera and
adaptive cruise control are available. Eighteen-inch wheels are
standard, but nineteen and twenty inchers are available as options.
The interior is nicely appointed, with genuine wood trim
throughout. Front seats are heated and cooled, and adjustable 12 ways,
plus lumbar support; even the rear seats are heated. Microsoft's
standard SYNC system received upgrades for 2010 to take it beyond
answering the phone and choosing a song-it now can offer turn-by-turn
directions and real-time traffic conditions. The standard 6-speaker
stereo has an in-dash 6-disc changer and MP3 capability, plus Sirius
satellite radio, but it can be upgraded to a 14-speaker system, which
includes two subwoofers.
