林肯飞行员轿跑车合成图近日曝光，从图片看，该车看起来更像一辆概念版车型，其造型富有运动特性。飞行家轿跑车的车厢设计是全新的，风挡倾角更大，车顶更低，大面积尾门与后脸融合。这样的设计看起来不错，但这种设计需要慢慢适应。飞行家轿跑车大面积弧形车顶看起来很像奔驰GLC轿跑车。虽然国外网站发布了飞行家轿跑车合成图，但这并非意味着林肯会真正推出这款车型，如果林肯决定更新旗下车型阵容，飞行家轿跑车将成为应对德系同级车型的竞争者。

Lincoln Aviator Coupe Rendering Softens The Blocky Crossover

Earlier this year, Lincoln announced its commitment to cars – however, it didn't say for how long. The luxury brand's promise came with an alleged announcement of the Continental receiving suicide doors. That was before Ford announced its shift away from cars to crossovers and SUVs, which puts the MKZ – rumored last year to be on thin ice – and the Continental's future in jeopardy. If the two sedans disappear, it opens Lincoln's lineup for a slew of new crossovers and variants – such as this Lincoln Aviator Coupe.

 

The rendering here gives the otherwise blocky Aviator, which will look much like the concept, a sportier appearance. It's a good rending that provides a peek at what such a vehicle could look like if the company decides to diversify its portfolio.

 

The rendering gives the SUV a new greenhouse, with a sloped windshield, low-slung roof, and sweeping tailgate that blends into the rear fascia above the taillights. The design doesn't look terrible, but it is an acquired taste many could do without. The Aviator's swooping roofline looks similar to that found on the Mercedes GLC Coupe, which is luxurious in its own right.

 

This rendering isn't proof the automaker would ever make such a product. However, if Lincoln hopes to flesh out its lineup, then an Aviator Coupe would be an easy way to compete directly with the Germans.
