Lincoln MKZ is No 1 in Best Value Hybrid Car


Island Lincoln, your trusted Florida Lincoln car dealer in Merritt Island, is pleased to inform that the 2012 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid has been ranked No 1 amongst the Best Value Hybrid Cars by Vincentric, a company providing data, knowledge, and insight to the automotive industry by identifying and applying the many aspects of automotive value.

Lincoln’s efforts to cut hybrid technology costs and pass those savings to the customers seem to be paying off here. Vincentric’s summary of their findings notes that “the range between the best and worst savings was significant, with the 2012 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid saving buyers $7,001 while the 2012 Chevrolet Tahoe Hybrid cost buyers over $8,065 more to own (than comparably equipped conventional vehicles).” The fuel prices used in this ranking were calculated using a weighted average over the previous five months.

The Lincoln MKZ Hybrid fuel-efficient luxury sedan is available at the same price as the base gasoline-powered MKZ model and represents the style and substance of the future of Lincoln, delivering more features and lower starting price. Its standard equipment includes a 2.0-liter EcoBoost engine, SYNC with MyLincoln Touch driver connect technology, Lincoln Drive Control, unique push-button shift, remote start, LED headlamps and taillamps, 60/40 split rear seat and a class-exclusive retractable panoramic roof.

Vincentric’s acknowledgement places the Lincoln MKZ Hybrid above several well-known other hybrid models such as the Mercedes-Benz S Class Hybrid, Lexus HS 250h, Toyota Prius V and C, Ford Fusion Hybrid, Kia Optima Hybrid, Porsche Cayenne Hybrid, Honda Insight and Hyundai Sonata Hybrid.
