Review and specifications
2024 Lincoln Nautilus
The Nautilus was redesigned for 2024. In addition to styling updates, the two-row midsized luxury SUV boasts an optional hybrid drivetrain and a wide display screen that wraps around the front of the cabin. The base engine is a 250-hp, 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder paired with an eight-speed automatic, and standard all-wheel drive; the optional 310-hp hybrid powertrain can be ordered on all trim levels and is mated to a continuously variable transmission. Two-tone paint and a blacked-out trim package are optional. All of the latest active safety features come standard. Ford's excellent BlueCruise (formerly called ActiveGlide) active driving assistance system is available as a subscription, and 2025 models and up got a free four-year trial of the system. For 2026, automatic lane change functionality is added to all trims.

Brand context
About Lincoln
<p>Lincoln is Ford’s luxury brand, and most Lincoln models are fancier, quieter versions of existing Ford SUVs. The Lincoln Navigator, for example, is closely based on the Ford Expedition. The Lincoln Corsair, Nautilus, and Aviator make greater departures from their Ford siblings. Some models are available as hybrids or plug-in hybrids. Lincoln SUVs tend to come with standard leather seating surfaces, large screens, and generous sound deadening. That interior high-quality paired with lively powertrains have contributed to some models earning a Consumer Reports’ recommendation. Lincoln stopped building sedans when it discontinued the Continental and MKZ in 2020. As a brand, for new and used car reliability, road-test scores, and owner satisfaction ratings, Lincoln tends to be average. However, Lincoln's maintenance and repair costs are lower than almost all other brands.</p>
