The 2019 Lincoln Continental FWD makes sense for someone seeking a large front-wheel-drive car with a turbocharged six-cylinder and an automatic transmission. Its 21 MPG combined rating is the key ownership number, and the EPA’s $3200 annual fuel estimate gives that figure a clear budget impact. Highway trips should use less fuel than city errands, but the overall rating remains moderate. Consider it when the body size and gasoline powertrain matter more than minimizing fuel spending or tailpipe emissions.
What it is
The 2019 Lincoln Continental FWD is a large car from Lincoln’s Continental family. Its defining EPA figure is 21 MPG combined.
The numbers
The Continental returns 18 MPG in city driving and 27 MPG on the highway. The combined 21 MPG figure gives one number for mixed use, while the city and highway figures show how your route can change the result.
What it costs to run
EPA estimates fuel for this gasoline Continental at $3200 a year. That cost goes with its 21 MPG combined rating, so fuel spending depends on how much you drive and how much of that driving is in town or on the highway.
How it compares
Its 27 MPG highway rating is 9 MPG higher than its 18 MPG city rating. That gap makes the Continental more economical on highway miles than in stop-and-go driving. You can place it among other Lincoln cars by using the same MPG measures.
Who it suits
This Continental suits a buyer who wants a large gasoline car with front-wheel drive and a turbocharged six-cylinder engine. It also fits drivers who need one combined MPG figure for mixed city and highway use.
Trade-offs
The 21 MPG combined rating comes with an EPA-estimated $3200 yearly fuel cost. City driving is rated at 18 MPG, below its 27 MPG highway figure. Tailpipe emissions are 424 grams of CO2 per mile.
Verdict
Choose the 2019 Lincoln Continental FWD if a large-car format, front-wheel drive, and a turbocharged six-cylinder engine fit your needs. Its fuel picture is straightforward: 21 MPG across mixed driving, with a noticeable split between urban and highway use. Budget around $3200 each year for gasoline under the EPA estimate. This is a fit for drivers willing to accept that running cost in exchange for the Continental’s size and drivetrain layout.
