Overview
The 2016 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid Sedan fares well in the midsize sedan segment. Available at the same price as the standard gasoline variant, the MKZ hybrid carries a base price of MSRP $35,190 and is offered in 2 trims, reaching a price of MSRP $45,605 for its top trim. The engine on service here is a familiar 2.0L inline-4 engine supported by a 1.4K kWh battery pack. Mated to a CVT automatic transmission, it makes 188 horsepower and 129 lb-ft of torque. The combined fuel economy improves from 26 MPG on the standard gasoline variant to 40 MPG on the hybrid variant, making the increase in sticker price worth it. The performance of the MKZ hybrid remains at par with the gasoline variant, with the car accelerating from 0 to 60 mph in 8.9 seconds. Lincoln offers the same 9 colors for the MKZ hybrid. The MKZ mainly competes against the Lexus ES 300h Sedan. Buyers can also consider in-expensive options such as Toyota Camry Hybrid, the Hyundai Sonata Hybrid, and the Ford Fusion Hybrid.
