In these days of fuel economy consciousness, several hybrid models are offered on the market. Until an all-electric car becomes an accepted alternative to the gas driven versions, the hybrid offers a compromise for which many are looking. Lincoln is one of the car manufacturers that has ventured into the realm with startling results.
The Lincoln MKZ Hybrid is powered by two engines—a 2.0-Liter Inline-4 engine with 16 valves that generates 141-horsepower and 129 pound-feet of torque and an electric engine that generates 118-horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque. When used in conjunction the two engines generate 188-horsepower and 200 pound-feet of torque. The combination of engines elevates the fuel mileage considerably from 24 mpg combined with just the gas engine to 40.1 mpg combined.
