"  The 2011 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid offers a more luxurious experience than we found in the similar Ford Fusion. It&amp;#039;s practical and fun, with a lively, near-silent ride. The MKZ also boasts Ford&amp;#039;s excellent SYNC system, which uses voice commands to seamlessly integrate tech features, from music to traffic alerts. Despite the MKZ&amp;#039;s heavier chrome accents and more luxurious interior, it&amp;#039;s very similar to the Ford Fusion Hybrid. Most of the Fusion Hybrid&amp;#039;s plusses and minuses apply to the Lincoln MKZ as well. The MKZ is sporty to drive, but still offers a quiet ride. It accelerates smoothly and quietly, with balanced handling that doesn&amp;#039;t sacrifice comfort on bumpy roads, and boasts impressively responsive braking for a hybrid. Our only qualm was the MKZ&amp;#039;s somewhat slow-reacting transmission; we noticed a bit of a delay when we tried to accelerate quickly. The MKZ&amp;#039;s SYNC in-car connectivity system performed well in GHRI tests, offering smooth hands-free calls, music controls, and other voice-activated commands. You won&amp;#039;t be short on data with the vehicle&amp;#039;s host of displays, including an optional LCD in the center console and a pair of customizable screens on the dash, which display everything from the car&amp;#039;s eco performance to the engine&amp;#039;s power output and fuel economy, in addition to an animated plant that grows new leaves to reward good driving habits. The MKZ was also rated highly for its spacious cabin, which was comfortable for short and tall testers alike. This Lincoln Hybrid doesn&amp;#039;t offer quite the same value that the Fusion Hybrid does, but the luxurious driving experience is still commensurate with its higher sticker price. Fuel Economy (city/highway/combined): 41/36/39mpg  Size Class: Midsize  Drivetrain: Gas Hybrid  Base Price: $34,645 "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
