Naturally, the vehicle is not intended for production or sale but is intended to signal at a possible design direction for Lincoln\u2019s future lineup. <\/p>\n<div class=\"c-float-right\">\n<aside id=\"XnM856\"><q>Lincoln said the L100 is intended to pay homage to the automaker\u2019s first luxury vehicle<\/q><\/aside>\n<\/div>\n<p id=\"qaN7d2\">\u201cConcept vehicles allow us to reimagine and illustrate how new experiences can come to life with the help of advanced technologies and allow our designers more creative freedom than ever before,\u201d said Anthony Lo, chief design officer for Lincoln\u2019s parent company, Ford, in a statement.<\/p>\n<p id=\"mc72G7\">Lincoln said the L100 is intended to pay homage to the automaker\u2019s first luxury vehicle, the 1922 Model L. Of course, the concept looks almost nothing like its 100-year-old forebear. The L100 is a sleek fastback with nearly 360 degrees of glass encircling the cockpit. Lincoln\u2019s badging, which appears similar to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2022\/4\/20\/23034812\/lincoln-electric-ev-2025-star-concept-reveal\">the automaker\u2019s Star concept announced earlier this year<\/a>, appears as an illuminated display on the front of the vehicle. <\/p>\n<div id=\"ZdaV5t\">\n<section class=\"c-image-gallery\" data-cid=\"apps\/image_gallery-1661261943_6964_316386\" data-cdata='{\"routing\":false,\"keyboard\":false,\"two_col\":false,\"display_headline\":false,\"expandable\":false,\"svg_logo_data\":null,\"anthem_component_id\":2010810,\"entry_id\":23080624}'>\n<div class=\"c-image-gallery__body\">\n<p>\n      <button data-ui=\"grid\"><br \/>\n        <svg role=\"img\"><use xlink:href=\"#icon-grid\"><\/use><\/svg> <span>Grid View<\/span><br \/>\n      <\/button>\n    <\/p>\n<div class=\"c-image-gallery__viewer\" data-ui=\"viewer\">\n<div class=\"c-image-gallery__image\" data-ui=\"next-image\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\" alt=\"\">\n      <\/div>\n<p>      <button class=\"c-image-gallery__viewer-prev\" data-ui=\"prev-image\" aria-label=\"Previous image\"><br \/>\n        <svg role=\"img\"><use xlink:href=\"#icon-left\"><\/use><\/svg><br \/>\n      <\/button><br \/>\n      <button class=\"c-image-gallery__viewer-next\" data-ui=\"next-image\" aria-label=\"Next image\"><br \/>\n        <svg role=\"img\"><use xlink:href=\"#icon-right\"><\/use><\/svg><br \/>\n      <\/button>\n    <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<p id=\"K7oWby\">The doors don\u2019t do normal door things but instead open outwardly in a reverse-hinged style that, to my knowledge, has yet to be attempted in the auto industry. The glass roof also opens in the same direction, which I suppose would be helpful if you are a very tall person who has trouble getting in and out of your vehicle. <\/p>\n<p id=\"LhOihT\">Inside, you\u2019ve got a luxurious lounge-like living space that distinguishes itself by the absence of traditional controls, like a steering wheel or pedals. In the place of a steering wheel, it has a \u201cjewel-inspired chess piece controller that captures light and depth by redefining the vehicle controls inside the cabin.\u201d So, basically, this is a concept car that runs on vibes. <\/p>\n<p id=\"sQbioT\">Not really! It\u2019s assumed that the L100 is an electric car, though Lincoln declined to provide performance specs, like battery capacity or range \u2014 which makes sense since this is a concept car that doesn\u2019t appear to be anywhere close to production ready. <\/p>\n<p id=\"fxpHcJ\">Lincoln plans on releasing three new fully electric vehicles by 2025 and a fourth by 2026. The company had hoped to work with buzzy EV startup Rivian on an electric SUV, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2020\/4\/28\/21240212\/ford-lincoln-cancel-rivian-suv-ev-coronavirus-pandemic-investment\">but that plan was thrown off by the pandemic<\/a>. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><code><br \/><\/br><\/code><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2022\/8\/22\/23316583\/lincoln-l100-concept-car-ev-autonomous-ford\">https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2022\/8\/22\/23316583\/lincoln-l100-concept-car-ev-autonomous-ford<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Source: Lincoln is celebrating its 100-year anniversary with the release of the L100, a concept car that harkens back to the automaker\u2019s legacy while also looking ahead to a future where pesky controls like steering wheels may no longer be needed.
