Yes, I'd expect they are very similar, if not identical.

I'm pretty sure they are the exact same engines and programming. It's just advertised numbers. Yes, the F150 and Navi will make those numbers. It's just Lincoln gets the highest advertised number because they need to separate themselves from Ford. They are a premium brand and if customers are going to shell out $75k for a vehicle, they better have bragging rights. It's no secret the current EB makes 380/430 on 91 octane. My guess is there was minor tuning for the 15's. Expect to see 365/420 just like the Expi. Remember, those numbers are on 87 octane. If you ran 93 in the F-150, you'd get the same numbers as Lincoln. There's no way they are going to advertise that because the vast majority of folks run on 87 and if they see Premium anywhere they'll think that's what the truck requires and may walk.
