Lincoln MKZ
With a decidedly modern style, the MKZ doesn't go unnoticed in its segment thanks to lots of equipment and a reasonable price point. The base trim has a 2.0-litre 240-horsepower turbocharged 4-cylinder. On option, there’s a 3.7-litre V6, while a hybrid version boasting fuel economy to the tune of 5.7 L/100 km combined is also available. The versions with the V6 engine come with all-wheel drive.
