This fun to drive mid-sized sedan remains a winner as it blends luxury, performance, efficiency, and features all into one neat package, the 2012 Lincoln MKZ.
Much like most of the Lincoln line up the MKZ was updated not to long ago and hasn't changed much for the 2012 model year. Possibly the best part of the Lincoln MKZ is that the standard gasoline engine MKZ starts off at the same price as the Hybrid engine.
The experts at CarProShow.com called the Lincoln MKZ Hybrid a "game changer" due to its price point and great fuel mileage of nearly 41 mpg. Last year the Lincoln MKZ Hybrid was the most fuel efficient luxury car on the market, and that is likely still the case although official 2012 model number are not all out yet. Should the MKZ fall from its top spot it will surely remain in the running. The spacious luxurious interior of the MKZ and MKZ Hybrid are winning over buyers left and right and those that opt for the Hybrid engine are seeing real savings at the gas pump.
