  Those who appreciate versatility in a vehicle will enjoy Lincoln's new liftgate design, which makes accessing the car’s cargo space easier, safer, and more convenient. Lincoln’s new tailgate design is also shorter than traditional tailgates, which facilitates trailering, and it provides a luxurious spot to lounge.
What Advantages Does Lincoln’s New Tailgate Design Offer?
Lincoln designed its new tailgate to address common pain points and consumer complaints. One complaint many SUV owners have is that tailgates are heavy and cumbersome. The new Lincoln Split Gate is much easier to use than traditional tailgates, making loading and unloading safer and more convenient. The new Lincoln Split Gate also has a hands-free option for opening the gate as you’re approaching the vehicle.
Additionally, people often have trouble keeping items in the car when the vehicle is parked on a hill or slope. To address the problem of items spilling onto the ground or sidewalk and potentially harming people and pets in the way, Lincoln’s new split tailgate system allows owners to keep the top portion of the tailgate up, which acts as a safety net to hold cargo in place.
For those who view the cargo area as a place to sit and relax at sporting events, on the trail, while camping, or on any other occasion, the new Lincoln split-gate design makes tailgating much more comfortable. The split tailgate features a lower height, giving it more of a bench-style look and feel. Additionally, this tailgate comes with integrated backrests that you adjust to your liking. The backrests are accessible through the Tailgate Manager, which also lets you access a shelf that can be raised or lowered to serve as a table or snack stand. Integrated lighting allows for better visibility in low-light conditions. You can comfortably sit on the tailgate without having to jump up to reach the bottom, and pets will find it much easier to jump up and down. Another convenient feature of the new split gate is that it is carpeted, which provides natural cushioning for those intending to sit and stay awhile, and it helps keep the vehicle and tailgate clean. Thanks to the improved tailgate design, you no longer need to bring additional chairs or blankets to sit on, which frees up storage space in the rear.
