A full-size luxury sedan with a legendary name
Drive a Continental
You can book a Continental on Turo from a local vehicle owner, and it's a standout pick when you're browsing Lincoln car rental options. The final generation (2017–2020) is the brand's full-size luxury sedan, offered in Standard, Reserve, and Black Label trims. Three V6 engines power the lineup, making 305, 335, or 400 hp.
What you see is what you drive. Pick the exact year and trim shown in the listing, then arrange pickup or delivery with the owner.

Twin-turbo power with a velvet touch
The top Continental engine is a 3.0L twin-turbo V6 making 400 hp and 400 lb-ft of torque, with AWD standard. In MotorTrend testing, it ran 0–60 mph in 5.4 seconds. The 2.7L twin-turbo V6 makes 335 hp, the base 3.7L V6 makes 305 hp, and all three use a six-speed automatic.
Perfect Position seats for long drives
The Continental's available Perfect Position front seats adjust 30 ways with power, so you can dial in support for hours behind the wheel. They also heat, cool, and massage with Active Motion — a welcome reset after a day of meetings or a long afternoon on the interstate. Check the listing to confirm your trim has them.
There's room for the whole crew, too. The cabin seats five, so you can bring the dinner party (or the client team) along in comfort. The 16.7 cu ft trunk gives you space for luggage on a weekend getaway.
Revel Ultima audio and SYNC 3 tech
The Continental's available Revel Ultima system surrounds you with 19 speakers. Clari-Fi music restoration technology helps compressed streaming files sound fuller, so your road-trip playlist gets the concert-hall treatment. Look for Revel Ultima in the listing details if great sound matters to you on long drives.
SYNC 3 runs on an eight-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Connect your phone, and your maps, messages, and music show up right on the dash. You keep your eyes up and your favorite apps within easy reach.
Stand out with a Continental
The Continental fits trips where the car is part of the plan: weddings, milestone dinners, business travel, and long highway drives. At just over 201 inches long, this full-size luxury sedan makes an entrance at the curb and settles in for the miles. The nameplate also draws classic-car fans — browse classic car rental if you're after vintage icons.

Top Continental features
Three things set the Continental apart: its heritage, the rare Coach Door Edition, and standard driver-assist tech with E-Latch doors.
A nameplate that dates to 1939
The Continental name dates to 1939, so you're driving a nameplate with more than eight decades of history behind it. The 1961 Continental made center-opening doors an icon of American luxury design.
Coach-door Continentals stayed in production through 1969, the last before the nameplate's modern revival in 2017. That lineage is a big reason the name still carries real weight with classic-car fans today. Pull up in a Continental, and you bring a slice of that story to every wedding, gala, or dinner downtown.
Coach Door Edition and collectibility
The rarest modern Continental is the Coach Door Edition, a limited run of 80 for the nameplate's 80th anniversary. Each one started as a Black Label Continental, built with Cabot Coach Builders and stretched six inches. The center-opening doors swing out 90 degrees, so stepping in feels like an occasion.
The Continental is now out of production, so late-model examples are the nameplate's final chapter. That makes every 2017–2020 Continental a little more special to drive. Coach Door Edition availability depends on the listings near you, so check what's available for your dates.
Co-Pilot360 driver-assist and E-Latch doors
The Continental comes standard with Lincoln Co-Pilot360, a driver-assist suite that backs you up on unfamiliar roads. It includes auto high beams, blind spot detection with cross-traffic alert, a lane-keeping system, and pre-collision assist with automatic emergency braking. That's a helpful layer of support when you're navigating a new city.
The doors get a touch of craft, too. E-Latch door handles release electronically, and power cinch closing pulls each door fully shut — no slamming required. It's a small detail you'll notice every time you step in or out.

Top tips and things to know before renting a Continental
Top tips and things to know before renting a Continental
Check the listing details, plan for the Continental's size, and confirm the fuel type before you go. Here's what to know.
Get to know your Continental
Start with the listing: it shows the year, trim, and engine, which shape the power, features, and fuel you'll need. Inside, look for the E-Latch door buttons and the power trunk so your first stop feels natural. If you need more seats than the Continental's five, a Lincoln Navigator rental gives you a three-row luxury SUV.
Continental driving tips
Give yourself room. At 201.4 inches long with a 41.8-foot turning circle on 2.7L trims, the Continental takes some planning in tight parking garages. The 3.0L and 2.7L twin-turbo engines run on premium unleaded, so check the fuel type in the listing before you fill up.
The 18-gallon tank makes long highway stretches easy to plan around. AWD availability varies by listing, so confirm it if you want it for winter trips.
How much does it cost to rent a Continental?
Local vehicle owners set Continental prices, which vary by model year, trim, location, and dates. Trip duration discounts can apply to three-day, one-week, two-week, three-week, and monthly trips. Book four or more days ahead, and you can get a 10% non-refundable discount.

* Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. In the US, liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.
For questions or information about the third party liability insurance for trips in the US, consumers in Maryland and the licensed states listed here may contact Turo Insurance Agency at (415) 508-0283 or claims@turo.agency. For questions about how damage to a host’s vehicle is handled, visit the Turo Support site. When a trip is booked in the state of Washington, physical damage to the host’s vehicle is covered by insurance purchased by Turo, but the Turo insurance does not change the contractual responsibilities of hosts or guests with respect to physical damage to a host’s vehicle.
