ESSENCE Black Women in Music event took place last week in Los Angeles, California honoring U.K. native Emeli Sandé. The ultra-glam, star-studded event, presented by the Lincoln Motor Company, kicked off the week leading up to the 56th Annual Grammy Awards and shined a light on African American women in the music industry as well as the All New Lincoln MKC.
The newest vehicle from the Lincoln Motor Company – the Lincoln MKC – shared the spotlight with one of the emerging voices in music – Emeli Sandé – at the ESSENCE Black Women in Music celebration. The all-new Lincoln MKC, the brand’s initial entry in the small premium utility segment, was revealed late last year in New York City. Although it will not be on sale until later this year, that didn’t stop celebs from taking a liking to it while on the red carpet. Check out some stylish celebrities as they strike a pose with the all new Lincoln MKC below.
The 2015 Lincoln MKC presents a sleek, sculpted body that helps it stand out among peers. Its high beltline and low shoulders create a sturdy, athletic presence, while features such as soft exterior lighting, pedestal side-view mirrors and an available panoramic, all-glass Vista Roof® give the vehicle a luxurious, sophisticated personality.
The All New Lincoln MKC will be the first Lincoln to have always-on built-in connectivity, allowing owners to utilize a smartphone app to control the vehicle. With the MyLincoln Mobile™ app, MKC owners can start, lock, unlock and locate the vehicle, as well as schedule a remote start event for a set time.
The Lincoln MKC available features include a fully turbocharged engine lineup headlined by the 285-horsepower 2.3-liter EcoBoost® engine, active park assist, Deepsoft Bridge of Weir leather, Vista Roof®, 19-inch wheels, voice-activated navigation, hands-free liftgate and a host of driver-assist technologies.
