Lincoln is all determined to make certain that its customers are also the most efficient motorists by introducing an updated version of the Smart Gauge that debuted last year on the Ford Fusion hybrid. Similar in design as its previous counterpart the new adaptation of Smart Gauge is a twin 4.3-inch LCD, which will bracket a centrally mounted speedometer, only this time, it will feature a green-gold design, along with long-term efficiency indicators in the form of apple blossoms, which also happens to be the Michigan state flower. Good mileage gets applauded by appearance of small little buds on the screen display which finally blossom into large flowers. Earning all flowers is good since it means saving about $8,000 in fuel costs and 30 tons of CO2 over the life of the car however, earning flowers may not be that easy, since the more you get the longer it takes to get more.
