Lincoln Nautilus vs Lincoln Corsair

Lincoln Nautilus vs. Lincoln Corsair: Unique strengths, tangible distinctions

Comparing the Lincoln Nautilus and Lincoln Corsair at Our Chico Dealership

At Ed Wittmeier Lincoln, luxury is virtually guaranteed. Two of the most popular models in Lincoln's lineup are the Lincoln Corsair and the Lincoln Nautilus. While both vehicles offer a luxurious driving experience, they have some notable differences that make them better suited for different types of Yuba City drivers.

Design and Style

The Lincoln Corsair is a compact SUV that has a sleek and modern design. It features sharp lines and a sculpted hood that gives it a sporty look. The front of the car has a signature Lincoln grille that adds to its stylish appeal. Inside, the Corsair features a spacious and luxurious cabin that is equipped with a range of high-end features such as leather upholstery, ambient lighting, and a panoramic sunroof.

On the other hand, the Lincoln Nautilus is a mid-size SUV that has a more classic and traditional design. It features a large, bold grille and a more conservative body style. The Nautilus also has a spacious and luxurious interior that is equipped with premium materials such as leather upholstery and real wood trim. However, the interior of the Nautilus is more focused on comfort than on modern design.

Performance

When it comes to performance, the Lincoln Corsair offers a range of engine options that allow drivers to choose the level of power that they want. The standard engine is a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder that delivers 250 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque. There is also an optional turbocharged 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine that delivers 295 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque. Both engines are paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission.

The Lincoln Nautilus, on the other hand, comes with a standard 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine that delivers 250 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque. There is also an optional 2.7-liter twin-turbocharged V6 engine that delivers 335 horsepower and 380 pound-feet of torque. Both engines are paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission.

When it comes to fuel economy, the Lincoln Corsair is the more efficient of the two. The standard 2.0-liter engine delivers an EPA-estimated 22 mpg in the city and 29 mpg on the highway, while the optional 2.3-liter engine delivers 21 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway.

The Lincoln Nautilus, on the other hand, is less fuel-efficient than the Corsair. The standard 2.0-liter engine delivers an EPA-estimated 21 mpg in the city and 26 mpg on the highway, while the optional 2.7-liter engine delivers 19 mpg in the city and 26 mpg on the highway.

Safety

Both the Lincoln Corsair and the Lincoln Nautilus come with a range of safety features that are designed to keep passengers safe on the road. These features include a rearview camera, automatic emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, and lane departure warning.

That said, the Lincoln Nautilus has a slight advantage when it comes to safety features. It comes with standard adaptive cruise control, which is an optional feature on the Corsair.

Interior Space

While both the Lincoln Nautilus and Lincoln Corsair seat five passengers, the Nautilus does have the slight edge for interior space. At 37.2 cubic feet of cargo space, it's ahead of the 27.6 cubic feet in the smaller Corsair. That said, the passenger space is nearly equal between the two, and the smaller size of the Corsair may be easier to manage in the city.
