Engines you might find in a used Lincoln MKZ
If we look at a model year like 2017, you might find the base powertrain for that year under the hood. It was a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that would give you 245 horsepower and 275 pound-feet of torque. Front-wheel drive came standard but you might find a model with all-wheel drive.
A larger twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 would give you additional zoom that could range anywhere from 350 horsepower to 400 horsepower, depending on whether you found a front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive configuration. Either way, you would probably be operating with a six-speed automatic transmission.
In addition, you might find a rare-but-valuable hybrid powertrain with 188 horsepower. That would give you an extraordinary EPA-estimated gas-mileage rating of 41 MPG in the city and 38 MPG on highways around Yuba City and Oroville CA. Regardless, you'd find the suspension gives you a high level of Lincoln luxury no matter what kind of Lincoln luxury sedan you find.

Fuel economy in a used Lincoln MKZ luxury sedan
While fuel efficiency can vary all over the map in a used Lincoln MKZ sedan, you can still save money and live large with commendable fuel efficiency. In a worst-case scenario, fuel efficiency could be as low as 17 MPG in the city and 26 MPG on the highway. Let's face it: 26 MPG isn't bad in a luxury car in today's high-priced times. In a best-case scenario, you might find a hybrid model that would give you 41 MPG in the city and 38 MPG on the highway.
Interior comfort in a used Lincoln MKZ sedan
A Lincoln sedan from a year like 2017 might offer a wealth of attractive interior amenities. If you find a higher-trim version, you might discover heated and ventilated front seats, leather heating surfaces, heated rear seats and even a panoramic sunroof. In Black Label models, the MKZ cabin takes on luxury proportions with the help of unique exterior and interior trims along with distinctive color combinations. The trunk might have around 15 cubic feet of space.
Also keep an eye out for a Lincoln Continental
The Lincoln Continental is arguably the most classic Lincoln model of all. You might, for example, find a Lincoln Continental with a luxurious blend of leather, genuine wood and chrome. A 30-way adjustable Perfect Position seating configuration is another feature you might discover.
