Used 2020 Lincoln Continental Sedan Trims Comparison

First up is the Continental base, an entry-level luxury sedan that comes with some luxurious amenities such as 10-way power-adjustable seats, interior wood trim and 18-inch aluminum wheels. The standard engine is a 3.7-liter V6 (305 hp, 280 lb-ft) and a six-speed automatic transmission. Safety equipment is a strong point thanks to Lincoln's Co-Pilot360, a comprehensive suite that includes pre-collision assist, lane keeping assist, and blind-spot detection with cross-traffic alert. The Sync 3 infotainment system is also a welcome addition.

Stepping up to the Continental Reserve brings substantial features to the table. First is a different standard engine, a twin-turbocharged 2.7-liter V6 (335 hp, 380 lb-ft) and an optional twin-turbo 3.0-liter V6 (400 hp, 400 lb-ft). The wheels increase from 18-inch to 19-inch designs, the audio system expands from 10 speakers to 13, and the power seats adjust up to 24 ways. Small luxury touches abound, from a heated steering wheel to illuminated doorsill plates.

At the top of the model line, the Continental Black Label adds a small number of premium features and a few that leave us scratching our heads. It is available with either of the twin-turbocharged engines, but for some reason, the 2.7-liter V6 in this trim only comes with front-wheel drive. All-wheel drive requires the 3.0-liter V6. The suede-like material generally found in sports cars comes on the floor mats of all places.
