Powerful, luxurious, attractive, safe vehicle
Terrific value, amazing sound system, and gets high safety ratings as well. Unfortunately 2020 will be the last model year as fewer customers are buying sedans.

Queen of the Road in New York City. Luxury in the heart of Manhattan
Great readability, gas mileage ratio is not so good, around 20 miles per gallon. Interior design is luxurious, sound system is tops. The backup camera, side warning system and camera is fantastic. I love that my text messages are read aloud. I have spoken to the Lincoln help desk while driving

I love my car and I recommend it.
It is a good vehicle I recommend them. If one day I have to buy another car brand is very comfortable. Roll super good on the street. I am in love with my car I feel very safe in it. So far I have no problems with it of any kind. It is really a good choice to buy a new car.

Great surprising luxury car.
Low profile tires get damaged in the potholes of NJ. Car is powerful and drives well. Adjustable suspension and all wheel drive makes it surprisingly fun to drive. No major problems with this vehicle. Sync system reacts slowly when weather is cold. Otherwise. Trouble free driving.

The Lincoln MKZ is a nice automobile.
The car has not had any problems. So far it is been a very dependable car and the mileage has been a lot better than I expected for a vehicle in the mid size class it is roomy and comfortably accommodates three passengers in the rear. The car performs well on wet surfaces and has automatic traction settings, which makes for effortless driving.

I think just the space and the smoothness make it nice.
The speakers are amazing and it drives really smoothly. I generally go on trips that can be 3.5-5 hours long and it's great to drive with friends who can sleep while I drive. It also gets up to speed relatively quickly. So far it's driven very well. No major problems to speak of.

The 2019 Lincoln MKZ reserve ii.
The 2019 Lincoln MKZ reserve ii is an excellent ride, has sports-car performance, and very stylish looks. My sticker price was 46k, and if you can afford it, it is worth it. I was disappointed to learn that 2020 will be the last year of the MKZ and lincoln’s other sedan, the continental.

2019 Lincoln MKZ reserve ll.
The vehicle has very good technology, including park assist and adaptive cruise control. Built in android auto that works very well. It has luxury features such as ac seats, leather and massage seats. The vehicle drives well and is very comfortable. Service and apps are easy to use and convenient.

A lemon of a car: the Lincoln MKZ.
I do not like it very much, I would call it a lemon of a car, and I tell my family members that everything is ok except that my digital screen is broken after only a couple years of use. It saves gas good though but really that is not that much of a reason to love it.

Pros from Owners

likeFilled Adriene T.

It is a hybrid. I like that it is part electric. It has quick pick up, dual controls for heat/air, seat warmers, Lincoln roadside assistance. The lease is affordable. Most cars on gas need to fill up gas every 4 days traveling to and from work approx 45 miles total, I fill my car approx 8-10 days making this economical as well as having a cleaner car for the environment.

Cons from Owners

dislikeFilled Adriene T.

I do not have any cons. I did a lot of comparisons with cars, example: price, mpg, style, customer reviews. I am very happy with my purchase. I like the way it handles and is a smooth drive. I also like driver alerts built into the system.
