Lincoln MKZ Hybrid
The 2012 Lincoln MKZ hybrid utilizes the same hybrid drive as the currently well -loved Ford Fusion hybrid -- a buy again vehicle according to 91 percent of buyers -- except wrapped in Lincoln luxury. Even better the Lincoln MKZ hybrid will cost the same as the gas-version of the MKZ.
How much better does it get than that? Well, the MKZ hybrid is undoubtedly the hottest looking hybrid ever produced by Ford. And, believe me, it looks even better in person.
But it's underneath that counts, right? So, let's get into some hybrid details.

With its 2.5L I-4 hybrid engine mated to an electric motor, the MKZ hybrid provides a combined 191 horsepower. More important, the MKZ's hybrid powertrain achieves 41 mpg in the city, and 36 mpg on the highway, while offering up to 700 miles on a single tank of gasoline - making it the most fuel-efficient luxury sedan in America.
Of course, it's not just the most fuel efficient luxury sedan in America, it's the most fuel efficient sedan, beating out both the Toyota Camry hybrid and the Hyundai Sonata hybrid, as well as any Lexus hybrid offerings in the same class.
Yet, the powertrain isn't the main reason to consider the MKZ hybrid, at least not for luxury vehicle fans.
Instead, it's luxury ammenities such as Hand-crafted eco-conscious Bridge of Weir leather, olive ash wood trim from sustainably sourced forests, heated and cooled front seats and the SYNCŪ voice-activated communications system.
Finally, the Lincoln MKZ hybrid is fitted with the SmartGauge with EcoGuide. With two high-resolution, full-color LCD screens important data such as fuel economy, fuel economy history, odometer, engine coolant temperature, and trip data, including current and time-elapsed fuel economy and miles to empty is readily available.
Without question that Lincoln MKZ hybrid makes a strong case for the best, and most cost-effective, sedan in its class - not to mention it's a hybrid.
