New York Auto Show Preview: 2013 Lincoln MKZ

• 4 of 5

Like the Fusion, the new 2013 Lincoln MKZ will feature a broad powertrain selection. The base engine is a 240-horsepower, 2.0-liter EcoBoost inline-four with projected 33 miles per gallon on the highway, and an optional engine is the 300-horsepower, 3.7-liter V-6 paired to an all-wheel drive system returning around 26 mpg on the highway. Finally, the MKZ Hybrid will return for 2013 with even better fuel economy thanks to the new 2.0-liter Atkinson-cycle engine. Lincoln did not announce expected fuel economy for the 2013 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid, but for comparison, the 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid with the same powertrain returns 47 mpg in the city and 43 mpg on the highway far exceeding the 41 mpg city/36 mpg highway ratings of the 2012 MKZ Hybrid
