About Lincoln MKZ
The MKZ received a facelift for the 2017 model year. Revealed on November 18, 2015 at the LA Auto Show, the MKZ is the first to adopt Lincoln’s new design language previewed earlier on the Lincoln Continental concept car, featuring redesigned front grille and headlights. The 3.7 L V6 will be dropped in favor of an all-new 3.0 L twin-turbo V6 engine unique to Lincoln, producing between 350 and 400 horsepower depending on the drive-train. Trim levels include the standard model, plus Premiere, Select, Reserve and top level Black Label, which is three special appearance packages, a tradition started with the Designer Editions in 1976. The MKZ offers the “Vineyard” (unique to the MKZ), “Chalet”, and “Thoroughbred” theme appearance packages. In continuing with Lincoln tradition, Bridge of Weir “Deepsoft” leather is used for the Select and Reserve trim packages. (Source Wiki)
