Offering the options of a 2.0-liter GTDI I-4 or 3.0-liter GTDI V6 engine, along with the power to rein it all in over diverse terrain thanks to available front- and all-wheel drive, the 2017 Lincoln MKZ, in Lincoln Black Label, Premiere, Reserve and Select trims alike, is surely a model to take you places. But it's with 2017 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid, offering long-range fuel economy of up to 41 mpg city/38 mpg highway/40 mpg combined, that day trip transforms into road trip.
A reliable 2.0-liter Atkinson-Cycle I-4 Hybrid Engine makes it all possible, keeping 2017 Lincoln MKZ on the road for the proverbial duration, shelling out up to 188 net system horsepower and up to 129 lb-ft torque at 4,000 rpm, and you can count on what vehicle research and valuation guru Kelley Blue Book lauds as a "smooth ride" topped off by "silent cabin" while you cruise, thanks to Electronic Continuously Variable (e-CVT) transmission and Electric Power-assisted Steering (EPAS). The centerpiece of 2017 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid is its tandem use of a Permanent Magnet AC Synchronous Motor and 35 kW, 1.4kWh lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery, offering long-haul travel capability as well as the ability to recoup a bit of battery power during slows and stops on the road, thanks to regenerative braking made possible by the sedan's power four-wheel disc brakes and Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) and electronic brake force distribution.
Needless to say, Lincoln of Wayne surely sees the promise of 2017 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid for traveling the Wayne, Paterson, Parsippany, Clifton and Montclair areas. Stop by our 1910 Route 23 North showroom to see for yourself with a firsthand test-drive experience.
