The MKZ Hybrid's powertrain features a 2.0L four-cylinder engine paired with an electric motor, producing a total of 188 horsepower, and is FWD only. All models come with a push-button gear selector and an 8-inch touchscreen running the MyLincoln Touch infotainment system, which includes features like voice control and smartphone integration.
