Specifications
The Lincoln Z is powered by Changan Ford's CAF488WQC 2.0-liter turbocharged gasoline engine, with an output of 243 hp (181 kW; 246 PS) and 376 N⋅m (277 lb⋅ft) of torque, giving the car a top speed of 225 km/h (140 mph). The Z uses an 8-speed automatic transmission.

Early in 2024, the engine of the 2024MY Lincoln Z was upgraded to CAF484WQC1 to improve the vehicle's efficiency, and the Lincoln Z hybrid version equipped with the CAF484WQH1 engine and HF55 hybrid transmission were introduced.[9]
