| Road Test |
The 2008 Lincoln MKZ is a traditional entry-level luxury sedan. To remain affordable, the Lincoln shares many components with the Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan, but wraps them in a nicer package. This equation is followed by plenty of manufacturers, including Lexus creating models off Toyota platforms, and Infiniti developing cars out of Nissans.
The MKZ name came into being in 2007, but the model actually originated as the all-new 2006 Lincoln Zephyr. In an unusual marketing move that recognized the competitiveness of the automobile business, Lincoln canned the Zephyr name after it significantly upgraded the model to become what you see as the 2008 Lincoln MKZ.
