2019 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid CVT)
7 of 12 people found this review helpful

Wanted to try a hybrid, looked at several and came down to lexus and lincoln. Lincoln drove better,for our needs, and controls were easier to use along with cost being lower.Purchased in December and are more than satisfied, it is not a "hot rod" we also own a sports car...it is a great trip car and always is above the 40mpg figure so far. Wife is short and seating position and view out the front was best for her of any car we tried. I REALIZED AFTER WRITING THIS I THOUGHT I WAS REVIEWING THE 2019 MODEL NOT THE 2018 SO SORRY FOR THIS MISTAKE, BUT WE LIKE OUR 2019 MODEL.

I already loved my 2017 Ford Fusion Hybrid Titanium. However, Rez, the new kid, is amazing. I was upside down so I HAD to go new. Love the interior, though I wish mine wasnt black. I do wish the back seat and truck were a little bigger. It seems about 1/2 " smaller than the Fusion Hybrid. I extra love the floor mats. I drive A LOT and wish no shoes or socks. lol I also love the exterior. Its creases and edges ensure it stands out. The other luxury cars seem to all have been molded with the same basic curves. Mechanically, I do wish for a LITTLE more power, as the MKZ is about 200 lbs heavier than the Fusion Hybrid Titanium. I can tell. That weight plus sport driving mode lowered the gas mileage from 45-50 mpg to 42-45 because Rona has me limited to my neighborhood and local county by 15 miles or so. Interior with the panoramic sunroof... the stop and go cruise are flawless. the lane departure works well, and I love the BLIS, which I had on my 2012 Fusion SEL but not the 2017 Fusion Hybrid Titanium. Revel sound system is PHENOMENAL!!! OMG!!! Yes, the XM does go out easy. I think its because its at truck level instead of roof level. Black finish seems to be a lot vulnerable to smudges, but the car looks great. Dealer added an unlimited powertrain warranty at no charge. Its only my 2nd brand new car. I plan on driving it until the wheels fall off. Lincoln reliablity is FAR above average. Like its Fusion mate, very limited recalls. Speaking of wheels, I am unsure WHY the car no longer comes with run-flat tires. I love the auto high-beams, although they get on my nerves sometimes. lol. cooled seats and even the massaging seats are cool. Its not the same system in a $80-85k car, but its kool. I only paid $35k. Got a great finance deal with Ally from the dealer too. Update Sept 2020... So I tried the parking feature. It works well. I did have an issue where the panoramic sunroof track was blocked. At dealer for two weeks. Gave me a non-hybrid MKZ. i still prefer mine. I love the way the heated seats warm ALL the way up the back like a real luxury car. Wish the cooled seats did the same. I test drove the Accord Hybrid Touring. It is a larger vehicle inside AND out. However, I HATED the eco-leather seats. I love the idea of recycled material, but I'm after luxury. The land departure, emergency braking, and other safety features were TOO overbearing. The Lincoln offers a good balance in the default settings. Also, the Accord was LOUD!! Yes, the display looked great. If you have a HUGE family, which I dont, the Accord may fit better with more interior and trunk space. I love the better look of the Lincoln. Its Sexy and well worth the $5k price increase, though the MKZ's are on sale. UPDATE: 3/15/2021 I've now had the car for NINE months. Still completely FLAWLESS!! It puts so many other luxury brands. *** The radio buttons are LED lights. Not the paint that rubs off. *** The panoramic sunroof has a windbreaker like the more expensive Audi. *** The SiriusXM antenna is a LOT sensitive though. *** The massaging, heated, and cooled front seats are casket comfortable and supportive. *** The gas mileage.... yes its heavy, but drive right (65-70 MAX) for 42-48/mpg consistently. This is the dark horse. The only challenge is the stock tires are NOT run-flats. I think I have a scratch or nail in one as it keeps losing air, but wont go flat lol.

This is our second Lincoln MKZ. After purchasing the first one which was a 2011, we are sold on them. Our 2011 had 113k miles and was going strong. We simply got the bug to get a new one. We found Ruby (she is Ruby Red) and we fell in love. The updated features are always nice to have and we have not been disappointed. I doubt that we will ever purchase anything other than a Lincoln MKZ or upgrade in the future.
