2018 Lincoln MKZ Reserve

Model Highlights

The Lincoln MKZ is available with one of several different engines. The 4-cylinder option is a 2.0L turbocharged unit that makes 245 hp, more than enough for most drivers while maintaining a respectable 31 highway mpg. For those looking for even more efficiency, a hybrid powertrain is available that pushes a very impressive 40 combined mpg. The optional engine is a 3.0L twin-turbocharged V6 with direct injection. In its basic guise it makes 350 hp, enough to make the MKZ quite quick. If a buyer should opt for all-wheel drive in conjunction with the V6, they will be treated to an extra 50 hp, bringing the grand total up to 400 hp. Basic, standard equipment on the Lincoln MKZ with the 2.0L turbo is extensive and includes 10-way heated front seats with a memory function for the driver's side, A 10-inch LCD gauge cluster, Ford's SYNC 3 infotainment system, SiriusXM Satellite radio, 2 USB ports and an audio jack, dual-zone temperature control, a remote starter, 18" machined aluminum wheels, paddle shifters behind the steering wheel, and a rear-view camera.
