Lincoln Nautilus 2024 debuts with major redesign, new hybrid option


2024 Nautilus Lincoln bigger, flashier and pack a new pack mixture powertrain options. Take a look inside this two-row midsize SUV, and you’ll notice it has a brand new look and feel that’s never been seen on any other vehicle. Lincoln so is the product.

Starting with the new exterior, nautilus Create an entryway with a large grille — depending on the trim you choose, four distinct models are available. Regardless of the styling, new daytime running lights run across the grille and connect to the headlights. Lincoln played safe with the sculpted lines along the sides, but the door handles are newly integrated and line up with the door trim itself. The power buttons on the inside of the scissors activate them. The rear mimics the front with full-width taillights. Hidden air vents keep the rear of the car clean and uncluttered. Both models seen in the photo have 22-inch wheels, but 20-inch and 21-inch wheels will also be available.

A new line of powertrains sees a greener shift of things. The base Nautilus engine is still a 2.0-liter turbocharged, 4-cylinder, but Lincoln says it’s a new design, like what you’ll find on the Nautilus. Update Lincoln Corsair. It makes 250 horsepower and 275 pound-feet of torque, mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. All-wheel drive is standard across the lineup, even for the base model. As for the engine upgrade, Lincoln ditched the twin-turbo V6 for a hybrid option. The hybrid engine combines a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with an electric motor and a continuously variable CVT transmission. Lincoln says the system’s total output is 310 hp, and while that’s 335 hp less from the upcoming V6, we’re really not too upset about the slight drop in power for a mostly SUV like without this sporty look. Lincoln tells us the hybrid system is similar to in Ford Maverick And Ford Escapebut with a more powerful electric motor (134 hp) and an enhanced powertrain.

The utility of Nautilus has increased compared to before. Lincoln says the new Nautilus is running on a vehicle platform that isn’t currently shared with any other platforms Ford or the Lincoln model sold here, and the final idea was to create a much larger car. With an extra 2 inches in length and 2 inches in width compared to the old model, Lincoln has significantly expanded rear seat space and cargo space.

Lincoln makes furniture much more advanced technology. You’ll immediately notice the full-width display at the top of the dash, which is actually two 23.6-inch screens smashed together. The screen section in front of the driver is reserved for the traditional instrument cluster layout with the in-car navigation taped to its right. The screen that extends all the way to the passenger side is fully customizable, allowing you to put a number of things on it like media playback, clock, weather, etc. We asked Lincoln if it plans to allow it. people stream movies or TV shows through streaming services on those screens, but was told it was too early for development to confirm anything like that. However, it does say that any type of content you watch or interact with (like games, etc.) will be locked if you’re on the go. It is worth noting that there will be no HUD due to the placement of this display. The lower-than-normal flat-top steering wheel is also considered a highlight of the display, as the larger wheel cuts off the driver’s view of the screen. We sat in the driver’s seat, and even with the wheels cut, it still obscured a large portion of the available viewing space.

You can customize the top panel via the usual infotainment system in the traditional position. This 11.1-inch screen is also where Apple CarPlay/Android Auto will show up if you want to run those apps. Lincoln is calling the new infotainment system a “Digital In-Car Experience,” and it’s based on Android Automotive software.

As for the rest of the interior, Lincoln is taking a page out Mercedes playbook with something called Lincoln Rejuvenate. similar to Mercedes‘ The ‘Comfort Energy’ programmes, the ‘Lincoln Rejuvenate’ programs combine a range of luxury car features in an attempt to relax. Press the button and the car will bring the fragrance into the cabin, start a seat massage program, play specially designed music, project soothing graphics on the full screen display and project a burst of light with pulsed light. around. Different fragrances are a new feature of Lincoln, and there will be three to choose from including Mystic Forest, Ozonic green and Violet Cashmere.

Of course, the Lincoln Black Label program will continue for the Nautilus, but a new theme will join this SUV called the Redwood. It’s meant to remind you of the Redwoods of California, but Lincoln was quick to assure us that it didn’t use real Redwood trees to decorate the interior of the car, opting instead for American walnut wood that can be used. brown and complement red. seats, dashboard and door trim. Chalet Black Label theme mainly consists of two tones of cream and black color are also available, along with a long list of other non-Black Label color combinations.

Similar to CorsairThe new Nautilus will provide BlueCruise 1.2, automatic lane change assist along with hands-free driving capabilities. As you’d expect, a range of driver assistance systems will also be standard on the Nautilus, but BlueCruise 1.2 will be standard on some trims and optional on others.

We don’t have a price for the new Nautilus yet, but Lincoln says it will go on sale here as early as 2024. Still, even without a price, Lincoln said customers can order it today via the website. of the company.
