In this episode, we test out the fuel economy in the all-new 2017 Lincoln MKX. This mid-size luxury crossover is feature-packed with class-leading luxury amenities and state-of-the-art technology that rival its German and Japanese competitors.

Our tester was equipped with a 2.7-litre EcoBoost engine and a six-speed automatic transmission. Our test yielded 140 kms on a half tank of gas and gave an average fuel economy of 16.5 L/100 km.

After using up our tank of gas, we were able to fill it back up for $26.59 for a half tank of gas at a fuel cost of $0.976/litre.
