Bought it with 20K miles, off lease vehicle. Averaging 40mpg since purchased. Only issue was seat heater fan made noise when cold, was replaced under warranty. Vehicle rides great with electronic suspension. Has little more wind noise than I would expect at B-pillar. Why would you drive some little electric or hybrid car when you can drive one of these and get 40mpg. Car now has 63k on and will need new rear brake pads. Will replace rotors at the same time with new original equipment because they are are rusty from low usage with Hybrid braking. OE is still probably best for anti rust long term. Traded car at 95k miles for 2014 same car. Had no more problems with car. Wanted to get one with active cruise, brake warning and lane keep. Bought 2014 with 45k miles. The 2014 had been averaging about 2 mpg better fuel mileage than 2013. Not sure why.

Bought my new 13 Z four months ago and it's great to drive, comfortable and quiet. I have the hybrid and it offers a smoother ride than the EcoBoost version. My MPG was under 37 MPG and I just had the update done at AutoNation in Clearwater on Friday and I'm now averaging 42 MPG:-) In addition, they fixed a recall item on the fuel pump (something like that) and I've got to admit that the car rides different (better all the way around) and it's pretty cool to be pushing 80 MPH and be on electric:-) Maybe it took Lincoln a bit more time to get it right, but they did.

Very Good, but not Great

Purchased this car 4 weeks ago. On a 4-hour highway trip averaged 38 mpg. Same in town. Car is very comfortable to sit in for long distances. Interior is classy and exterior paint looks great. Complaints include fuel efficiency leaves display difficult to determine how efficient you are at that moment. Windows look great, but difficult to see oncoming traffic when backing up on a slight curve. Most disappointment was/is with Lincoln itself. They offered a $1000.00 rebate if your car was from a competing manufacturer, but not if you were a loyal Ford owner! I've never been penalized for loyalty.

First time buyer of a hybrid and we are totally satisfied with Lincoln. The car averages 37 miles per gal and the ride is very nice. The braking is fine and road handling is also nice. The panaramic sun roof gives an almost convertible feeling. Great idea and well the worth the wait to get it.
