Lincoln MKZ Hybrid
Ford Motor Co., which has already produced the successful Ford Escape and Ford Fusion hybrids, will now offer a hybrid version of the Lincoln MKZ, which it claims will be the most fuel-efficient luxury sedan in America, with EPA-certified ratings of 41 m.p.g. in city driving and 36 m.p.g. on the highway. While the prices for most hybrids hover $2,000 to $5,000 higher than the same model on gas, Ford has priced the MKZ at $35,180, identical to the all-gasoline-fueled versions of the 2011 Lincoln MKZ, and it also has all the creature comforts found in the conventional version.
