Ford Motor Co. is touting the 2011 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid for "offering luxury customers a premium hybrid sedan at the same base price as its conventional gas sibling, with an MSRP starting at $35,180."

The fact that the car is a hybrid with a certified mpg of 41 is not the only "green" claim Ford is making of the new car. The interior features swirl walnut and olive ash wood trims. Both woods "are eco-friendly as well. The veneers come from well-managed forests, as defined by strict environmental, social and economic standards, and from other rigorously controlled sources," Ford said.

The car will be available at Ford dealers this fall.
