Logo Lincoln La storia del logo Lincoln Lincoln Nazione Stati Uniti d'America Tipologia Divisione (organizzazione aziendale) Fondazione 1917 Fondata da Henry M. Leland Sede principale Dearborn (Michigan), USA Gruppo Ford Settore Casa automobilistica Prodotti Autovetture Note La Lincoln è stata acquistata dalla Ford nel 1922. Sito web www.lincoln.com Lincoln è la divisione di lusso del costruttore di automobili Ford. È stata fondata da Henry M. Leland nel 1917 e acquistata dalla Ford nel 1922. Deve il suo nome ad Abraham Lincoln. La Lincoln fu fondata nell'agosto 1917 da Henry M. Leland, uno dei fondatori della Cadillac. Leland lasciò la Cadillac, ormai parte della General Motors, durante la Prima guerra mondiale e insieme al figlio Wilfred fondò la Lincoln Motor Company, che all'inizio fabbricava motori aeronautici Liberty. Dopo la guerra, gli stabilimenti della Lincoln furono convertiti alla produzione di automobili di lusso. L'azienda si trovò in grandi difficoltà economiche dopo la conversione della produzione e, dopo avere prodotto solo 150 auto, il 4 febbraio 1922 fu dichiarata in bancarotta e venduta alla Ford Motor Company per $8,000,000, parte dei quali fu utilizzata per saldare i debiti. L'acquisto della Lincoln fu un successo personale per Henry Ford, che era stato precedentemente allontanato dalla Detroit Automobile Company da un gruppo di investitori guidati proprio da Leland. Quest'ultima società, chiamata Cadillac a partire dal 1902 e acquistata nel 1909 dalla General Motors, sarebbe poi diventata il principale rivale della Lincoln. Dopo l'acquisto da parte della Ford, una diminuzione dei prezzi e modifiche estetiche fecero aumentare le vendite della Lincoln fino a 5512 unità fra marzo e dicembre 1922. Fu così che la Lincoln divenne uno dei marchi di lusso di maggior successo degli Stati Uniti, insieme a Cadillac e Packard. Nel 1923 furono introdotti nuovi tipi di carrozzeria, fra cui quelle di tipo phaeton e berlina a quattro porte. L'offerta comprendeva anche roadster a due posti, berline a sette posti e limousine; queste ultime avevano prezzi a partire da 5200$. Nel 1924 la Lincoln iniziò a produrre modelli speciali utilizzati dai dipartimenti di polizia americani. Queste auto, conosciute come Police Flyers, erano equipaggiate con rastrelliere, vetri antiproiettile spessi 2.2 centimetri e tergicristalli elettrici sul lato del guidatore. Tra il 1932 e il 1933 furono introdotti nella gamma Lincoln due nuovi motori V12, poi unificati nel "tipo K" che rimase in produzione fino alla metà degli anni '40. Il Lincoln "K" V12 era un motore della cilindrata di 6791 cc da 150 cv a 3400 giri. Nello stesso periodo Eugene T. Gregorie iniziò a progettare, nello studio di design creato da Edsel Ford, quella che sarebbe poi diventata la Continental, il modello più conosciuto e importante della Lincoln. Inizialmente il progetto era di un esemplare unico da fabbricare per lo stesso Edsel Ford, che voleva un'auto dallo stile europeo da utilizzare durante le vacanze in Florida, ma poi si decise di produrre la Continental in serie, a partire dal 1939. Fra il 1998 e il 2002 la Lincoln ha fatto parte del Premier Automotive Group, in cui la Ford aveva riunito i suoi marchi di maggior prestigio, ma ne è poi stata separata, seguendo la nuova strategia aziendale di differenziare i marchi statunitensi e quelli di importazione. Negli anni più recenti, la Lincoln si è trovata in difficoltà a causa della mancanza di nuovi modelli, perdendo terreno rispetto ai concorrenti americani e giapponesi come Cadillac e Lexus. La Ford, comunque sta cercando di rimediare: grazie alla condivisione dei pianali con altri modelli del gruppo, la Lincoln sta rinnovando la propria gamma con modelli come MKZ, MKS e la crossover MKX. I modelli della Lincoln sono ufficialmente disponibili in Stati Uniti, Canada, Messico, Porto Rico, Isole Vergini, Guam, Samoa Americane, Isole Marianne, Cina, Corea del Sud e Medio Oriente. Nel 1927 fu adottato come logo il levriere, poi sostituito dal diamante utilizzato ancora oggi. 1922 - 1927 1922 - 1927 1922 - 1927 1927 1937 Lincoln Zephyr V12 1949 1956 Lincoln Continental 1950 1952 Lincoln Capri Mark II 1958 Lincoln Continental 1959 Lincoln Mark MKS 2009 Lincoln C concept Fonti: recensione acquisita il 17-01-2012 da: http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lincoln_(azienda) http://www.cartype.com/pages/440/lincoln_related_emblems .

Equity | 10 May 2019 Car Wars thesis and investment relevance Car Wars is an annual proprietary study that assesses the relative strength of each automaker’s product pipeline in the US. The purpose is to quantify industry product trends, and then relate our findings to investment decisions. Our thesis is fairly straightforward: we believe replacement rate drives showroom age, which drives market United States Autos/Car Manufacturers share, which drives profits and stock prices.

    Ford EcoBoost engine - Wikipedia 1 of 27 Ford EcoBoost engine EcoBoost is a series of turbocharged, direct- injection gasoline engines produced by Ford and Ford EcoBoost engine originally co-developed by FEV Inc. EcoBoost engines are designed to deliver power and torque consistent with those of larger-displacement (cylinder volume), naturally aspirated engines, while achieving about 30% better fuel efficiency and 15% fewer greenhouse emissions, according to Ford. The manufacturer sees the EcoBoost technology as less costly and more versatile than further developing or expanding the use of hybrid and diesel engine technologies.

    PRESS INFORMATION LINCOLN C CONCEPT: BIG LUXURY IN SMALL PACKAGE DETROIT, January 2009 – Lincoln is breaking new ground with the Lincoln C concept, a new big idea for a small luxury car. Designed with today’s upscale, urban consumer in mind, the Lincoln C concept brings the presence and elegance of a large Lincoln to a smaller, more efficient C-sized car. “Modern luxury buyers who live and work in large, urban areas want to play their part in helping the environment by moving to a smaller vehicle, but they still want to enjoy the luxuries of life,” said Peter Horbury, executive director of Design, The Americas. “The Lincoln C offers sensible indulgence.” According to Horbury, younger contemporary consumers with slim iPods and pocket-sized cameras have already grown accustomed to the notion of premium quality in a small package. “During the past decade, people have gotten used to the idea that you could pay more money for a smaller version of the real thing,” said Horbury, citing the evolution of music players from tapes to CDs to MP3 players as an example. “The same philosophy can be applied to the automobile,” he added. “People will be happy to buy a smaller car that is better for the environment and more maneuverable in the city as long as the vehicle has all the attributes they want.” The concept’s unique size, lightweight construction and use of sustainable materials make the Lincoln C stand out – along with its fuel economy. Featuring a 1.6-liter EcoBoost engine and Ford’s all-new dry, dual-clutch PowerShift six- speed transmission, the Lincoln C concept achieves 43 mpg on the highway, while offering - 2 - up an impressive 178 horsepower and 177 ft.-lbs.
