Ford will unveil its first Lincoln Hybrid at the New York International Auto Show (NYIAS). The Lincoln MKZ Hybrid will be built on the same platform as the Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan Hybrid.

It will look the same as the non-hybrid model, but will have new badging to indicate its hybrid nature.

The big question is whether or not people will opt for the more expensive Lincoln model over the Fusion Hybrid. But then, people have to make that decision to buy the MKZ over the non-hybrid Fusion in the first place.
