2017 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid consumer reviews

Don't buy a hybrid with a 2 liter engine if you want speed off the line. That being said, I really like my 2017 sedan. I bought it toward the end of 2020 with mileage of less than 30K, and I'm still happy with my purchase, having driven 45K plus in the past three years. I never considered a Lincoln, much less a hybrid, until my husband told me how much he liked Lincolns as business rental cars. He was not disappointed with the MKZ. I miss having a moon roof, but other luxury features are not lacking -- for the rear passengers, the usb ports, the venting, and the roominess are all positives. The surprising amenity in the front is the forward center console. It has two open compartments, accessible from either seat, no digging under the armrest for maps, tissues, gum, etc. There are lighted cup holders and more ports for docking electronics, all of which have covers to give a sleek appearance. The door pockets are also well-designed, with cup holders there as well. There are enough different displays available to satisfy preferences for what a driver considers useful when driving. I like to monitor fuel economy, and there are two or three that include that feature. The idiot icons are not intrusive, but they can be insistent. Interior placement of the hood, trunk, and fuel door releases are not intuitive, but I did eventually become accustomed. Seat memory was always difficult. I needed the tutorial every single time I had to reset it. I love the exterior column-mounted keypad for unlocking/locking at the fueling station when I leave my purse inside the car for security. The LIncoln logo after dark when you approach the car is a nice touch. The trunk, which seems to be a drawback for some, is not so for me. It has lots of space, although the configuration may be daunting to those who travel with large pullman cases. It's rather like playing Tetris, and a pullman case will fit if positioned properly, but leave the second behind, and go with duffels and smaller cases and/or garment bags. It's ideal for city travel and highway travel. I drive both, and my mileage is 41+ on average. I've taken it to Colorado, Minnesota, and Maine, but I'm otherwise a flatlander. That might account for the stellar number. I have seen it as high as 50 under the right conditions! And yes, I know the cost of replacing the hybrid battery is pricey, but I consider it a known expense that will increase the useful life of my Lincoln. I have replaced tires, the 12-volt battery, and I've had only routine maintenance. I've had no problems or issues with it. It's been completely reliable, and my dealership service has been exemplary. I'd be very happy to drive it indefinitely. I consider the hybrid the best of both worlds--gas and electric.

This is my second certified pre-owned Lincoln MKZ hybrid. I still have the first one, 2012 with 115,000 miles. Not one repair. The only costs associated with this vehicle have been routine maintenance and one set of tiresNo breakdowns no mechanical defects excellent fit and finish I could not be happier with these Lincoln hybrids. I feel they are the best value on the US automobile market today.

Thanks to Covid haven't done much driving with it but when I do I enjoy it.Not as much power as our Fusion Titanium had but the ride is so much nicer and the gas mileage is awesome too.

Driving carefully, I can obtain 45 mpg easily, but even better under some circumstances. This MKZ is quieter and smoother than the 2013 MKZ I previously owned. Great ride, great fun, and excellent fuel mileage.

Terrific. I have owned 2 Lexuses, 1 BMW, 1 Volvo, 1 Mercedes and one Lincoln. This is as good as any. Price/value exceeds them all.

The MKZ Hybrid offers the smoothest ride of any car I've driven. It's like driving on a cloud. The reserve trim has a bevy of features that leave you refreshed after a drive. I live in Texas and the vented seats were a godsend. It has good legroom in the rear as well as rear usb ports for passengers. A used MKZ hybrid is a great bargain, I got a used 2017 for $22500 with 23000 miles.

Love the looks of this car inside and out. I needed a hybrid for work, or else I would’ve bought the 3.0. The hybrid is slow and not much horsepower. Also, the hybrids have very very small trunk space because the battery is back behind the backseat. But, awesome gas mileage. I have a heavy foot and get about 35.6 mpg. So, that’s worth it for me to have bought the hybrid.

The MKZ Hybrid is simply the epitome of Lincoln design and craftsmanship, with a sensible engine and great comfort and performance. Not to mention 39.5 MPG on the highway and 35 in town.

This is the third MKZ we have owned and 2nd Hybrid. Absolutely love this car. Has everything on it we wanted. Very stylish, comfortable and just can't say enough good things about this vehicle.

I was looking for a hybrid, and I have always been a Ford family owner. So, I upgraded to a Lincoln. Couldn't be happier! Met all my requirements...
