2.5 vs 2.0???

I know almost nothing about engines. I buy a car for its’ comfort, safety and cost of operation. My previous MkZ hybrid had a 2.5 liter engine. This new one has a 2.0. I’m assuming that the louder engine noise I hear from this car is due to a smaller engine. But the interior improvements are exceptional. And The Reserve model is worth the extra money. For example, a heated steering wheel... what’s not to like about that? And cooled front seats: excellent through all our hot months. Rear heated seats! My passengers now can enjoy that as we do in the front. Last of all, the front seat bolsters make a HUGE comfort improvement. And I’m averaging 37 mpg with my trunk heavily loaded. This is, in spite of the window below, my work car; I carry my samples in the trunk.

Far exceeds ones expectation of a luxurious car

The Lincoln MKZ Hybrid is the state of the art for an electric/gasoline engine in a modern day automobile; the future is here today.Just take a test drive and you will experience the reason you should be driving a Hybrid auto.

A Wonderful Car All-Round

The car performs very well under all conditions. We switch to snow tires in Toronto in the winter as it improves handling better than the all-seasons tires that come with the car. My wife's height is approx. 5 ft., and it is easy for her getting in, riding and getting out. I'm 5'10 and not skinny (but also not fat), and I find getting in is snug, and headroom is barely acceptable.

A wonderful hybrid

Thanks to the MKZ hybrid, driving is a pleasure and the cost of driving becomes very affordable. This is my eighth Lincoln and second MKZ. My 2017 is a replica of my former 2014, with the latest improvements from Lincoln. It would be hard to improve on it.

Great Car.

Have had this car for over a month and am very pleased with the purchase. The only small issue is the gas mileage which is rated at 38 in town and we are getting only 37 so not really an issue just FYI. We did get the 41 rating on a recent trip on the highway. The interior is great with great ergonomics and features. It drives and rides better than the Lexus we had before it. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the dealer we used, which was great by the way or the car. Both have exceeded my expectations so far.

Very Reliable, Terrible Visibility

No unscheduled service in 15k miles so far. Very reliable and tight. Poor visibility front and side for parking. Low headroom with moonroof. Not for people over 6' tall.

Beautiful Car, Reliable.

We have the Burgundy Velvet paint and everyone ask us what the color is and comment on how much they like the looks of the car.

Back to back ownership of the MKZ Hybrid

This is my second MKZ and it is fully loaded. I love the technology. I owned a 2013 and it averaged just under 37 mpg. The new styling and suttle improvements have just added to my appreciation of this car. They are superb automobiles. Living in a large metro area, I don?t miss the higher performance engines. No opportunity to use it here and the rare vists to the gas station made the hybrid my only consideration. I love this vehicle.
