2012 Lincoln MKZ Review
By KBB.com EditorsIf you're looking for a mid-size, middle-class, medium-priced sedan with trappings of luxury, then the 2012 Lincoln MKZ has your number. To its credit, the Lincoln MKZ offers a competent drivetrain wi
If you believe the design and construction of a luxury car begins with its platform, the Ford Fusion-based 2012 Lincoln MKZ may not be for you.
Despite the competence of the 2012 Lincoln MKZ sedan's Ford-Fusion underpinnings, it will likely not be confused with luxury cars that were engineered to that calling from the beginning. We like the V6 powertrain and its performance, and the 2012 MKZ certainly drives with competence and predictability, but other mid-size luxury entrants offer superior driving experiences. It's competent and smooth enough, if not exciting, and more enthusiastic drivers will undoubtedly shop for something else, while those who do test-drive and choose the MKZ wil

"We have a 2012 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid with 17,000 miles (purchased near the end of 2011). I can't tell you how impressed we continue to be with this car. We average 44 mpg, with it being a regular occurrence for us to obtain 60-70mpg+ in our daily errands around town. We even manage to hit that coveted "99mpg" mark in regular fashion as we drive from one errand to another in town (usually on warm weather days). Getting the most out of a hybrid means changing how you drive. Get up to speed quickly (while not "jackrabbitting") and then pulse with the accelerator or use the cruise control on even surfaces. "Pulsing" the acclerator (using it for brief periods of time to get back up to and/or maintain speed and then take foot off accelerator while the car coasts/cruises down the road) works very well. The interior and exterior styling is pleasingly elegant, with the leather seats a plush experience, the wood trim attractive, and the heated/cooled seats a delight. The sound system is excellent. We love the headroom, opting to not have a moonroof allowed me (6'2" tall) to have plenty of space between my head the and the interior's roof. The ride is remarkably smooth, even with the hybrid's "Low Rolling Resistance" tires, and the cabin is very quiet when cruising down the highway. Overall, we keep mentioning to each other how this Lincoln MKZ Hybrid has outperformed all our expectations in ride, comfort, styling and fuel efficiency (we get 700+ miles per tank!) We love our Lincoln MKZ Hybrid!!!"
