Pros

Standard all-wheel drive
Generous list of standard comfort, convenience and safety tech
Available hybrid powertrain

Cons

Piano-key shifter buttons can be annoying
Looking over, not through, the steering wheel at the gauges

What's new

Redesigned for 2024
Larger inside and out
Massive 48-inch digital instrument panel
Kicks off the second Nautilus generation

Overview

When Lincoln announced the end of production for the previous-generation Nautilus, we figured the eventual replacement would be electric. Instead, we get a new midsize two-row SUV with an available electrified hybrid powertrain and a standard technology suite to rival any competitor, gas or electric. But the unavoidable star of this show is the new digital instrument panel and display, measuring 48 inches and stretching all the way across the dash. Because 4 whole feet isn't quite big enough — actually, because it's tucked out of reach at the base of the windshield — that display is controlled by an easier-to-reach 11.1-inch touchscreen above the center console.

Cost to Drive^{Cost to drive estimates for the 2024 Lincoln Nautilus Premiere 4dr SUV AWD (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 8A) and comparison vehicles are based on 15,000 miles per year (with a mix of 55% city and 45% highway driving) and energy estimates of N/A undefined in Ohio.}

Edmunds spotlight: BlueCruise hands-free driving

Ford's BlueCruise — formerly branded AutoGlide on Lincoln vehicles — is standard on every 2024 Nautilus. The system allows for hands-free driving on most controlled-access highways in the U.S. so long as the cameras and sensors it relies on can see the lane markings and traffic around the Nautilus. A camera watches the driver to ensure the driver's eyes are on the road. The Nautilus will launch with BlueCruise 1.2, which automatically changes lanes in response to the driver activating a turn signal and will reposition the vehicle in its lane to maintain a comfortable buffer between the Lincoln and traffic in adjacent lanes. It's standard, but BlueCruise isn't free. After a 90-day trial period, Nautilus owners have to pay for a four-year service plan to keep the technology active unless they've chosen an option package that includes it. The service plan comes standard with the top-tier Nautilus Black Label.

Competitors to consider

The Nautilus competes in a class that is overflowing with excellent choices. Shoppers interested in traditional elegance would do well to check out the Mercedes-Benz GLC, while those looking for a more aggressive style might be interested in the Acura RDX. The Genesis GV70 offers an appealing balance of grace and athleticism and is available as an EV to boot — although you'll pay a premium for that version. Other electric SUVs worth a look include the Lexus RZ 450e, Tesla Model Y and Volvo XC40 Recharge.

Which Nautilus does Edmunds recommend?

Fully loaded, the Nautilus gets pricey. But even the base trim boasts an impressive list of features, although we'd add the Premiere II package. The included four years of BlueCruise are worth more than half the cost of the upgrade, which means you're getting a bargain on the panoramic sunroof, heated rear seats and upgraded sound system.

Lincoln Nautilus models

The 2024 Lincoln Nautilus is a two-row luxury SUV available in three trim levels: Premiere, Reserve and Black Label. A turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder with 250 horsepower and 275 lb-ft of torque is standard in all three; it's paired with an eight-speed automatic. A hybrid setup based on the same turbocharged 2.0-liter is optional on every trim. It bumps output to 310 horsepower and uses a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT). All-wheel drive is standard with both powertrains.

Gobs of luxury and tech features are standard on every Nautilus. The entry-level Premiere trim includes:

19-inch wheels

Satin-chrome grille trim

In addition to a 90-day trial of the BlueCruise hands-free highway driving technology, every Nautilus comes with Lincoln's Co-Pilot360 2.2 as standard equipment. This suite of advanced driver assist features includes:

Forward collision warning with automatic braking (warns you of an impending collision and applies the brakes in certain scenarios)
Lane keeping assistance (steers the Nautilus back into its lane if it begins to drift over the lane marker)
Blind-spot warning (alerts you if a vehicle in the next lane over is in your blind spot)
Evasive steering assistance (enhances the forward collision mitigation system with steering-based collision avoidance)
Rear cross-traffic warning (alerts you if a vehicle behind you is about to cross your path while you're in reverse)
Safe exit assist (can prevent a rear passenger from opening a door into traffic approaching from behind)
Front and rear parking sensors (alert you to obstacles that may not be visible in front of or behind the vehicle when parking)
360-degree parking camera system (gives you a top-down view of the Nautilus and its surroundings in tight parking situations)
Automated parking system (steers into a parking spot with little or no driver intervention)
Rear automatic braking (applies the brakes automatically to avoid an imminent collision with an object behind the vehicle)

The Premiere II option package adds:

I am a previous Acura, Audi and BMW owner. I also recently owned an Aviator, which I really enjoyed but the 2024 Lincoln Nautilus is hands down the best vehicle I have ever owned. The technology is state of the art. The vehicle is simply stunning looking especially in the Jet appearance package with the 22 inch wheels. The quality of finish is exceptional.

2024 Lincoln Nautilus Premiere 4dr SUV AWD (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 8A)

I ordered a Premier I hybrid White Platinum with the cargo accessory and floormat package. I didn't want a sunroof or adaptive suspension since the base 19 inch rims and tires provide a comfortable and quiet ride without the need of adaptive suspension. The base 10 speaker stereo has great sound. If I normally add an option I want it to add to a vehicle not replace something. …

2024 Lincoln Nautilus First Impressions

byCameron Rogers

•4/17/2023

What is the Nautilus?

Consider us shocked that the 2024 Lincoln Nautilus will even exist. When Ford announced the Oakville Assembly Plant — where the current Nautilus is built — would be retooled for electric vehicle production, we didn't know what that meant for the Nautilus midsize SUV and the related Ford Edge.

Instead of attaching the nameplate to a future EV or scuttling it altogether, Lincoln is actually launching a new gas-powered version, which will be built in China. The 2024 Lincoln Nautilus is fully redesigned, and even though the exterior styling is more evolutionary than revolutionary, the tech it offers is nothing short of groundbreaking. Here's everything we know.

What's under the Nautilus' hood?

The standard turbocharged 2.0-liter engine and eight-speed automatic are essentially carried over from last year. The four-cylinder produces 250 horsepower and 275 lb-ft of torque, which is actually 5 lb-ft lower than the current-generation Nautilus. This, combined with the fact that the upcoming model will only be available with all-wheel drive, leads us to believe the new Nautilus will be a touch slower than its front-wheel-drive 2023 counterpart.

Buyers looking for a speedier Nautilus used to be able to specify a twin-turbocharged V6 good for 335 hp. But this is the age of electrification, and thus the upgraded powertrain is now that same 2.0-liter paired to an electric motor. Available on all trim levels, the new hybrid pumps out about 310 hp and is matched to a continuously variable automatic transmission. It may not win a drag race against a current Nautilus with the V6, but it will undoubtedly win over buyers with a preference for efficiency and performance.

How's the Nautilus' interior?

There's one aspect of the Nautilus' interior that is immediately attention-grabbing, but we'll get to that in a moment. This 2024 model ushers in a new Lincoln cabin design language, starting with a two-spoke steering wheel with a flat top, allowing drivers to peer over the wheel to see the digital instrument panel. The engine start button is smartly relocated from its position next to the piano key shift buttons (which return for 2024 with a new crystalline look) to the dashboard. The center console now features only those shift buttons, the volume knob and a few toggles for the safety systems, as the climate controls are now accessible via touchscreen menus. While we'll reserve judgment until we can actually interact with the touchscreen in person, other manufacturers have also taken this approach, and we've generally been unimpressed with the results.

Lincoln hasn't disclosed full specifications just yet, but they have said that the Nautilus will be a couple inches longer and wider than its predecessor. As a two-row midsize, the current model offers abundant legroom — even for four tall adults — but the panoramic sunroof does cut into maximum headroom. Hopefully the new Nautilus gives us a bit more vertical space when fully optioned.

For interior color combinations, Lincoln will offer black and gray, black and blue, and Smoked Truffle, which Lincoln describes as "a two-tone neutral but warm theme." The available Jet Appearance package dresses up the exterior in darkened styling elements and adds copper accents to the black interior. The Black Label trim level sits at the pinnacle of the Nautilus lineup and adds the new Redwood theme to the options list. Everything above the dash is black, while everything below is a pleasant deep saddle brown, with white piping and stitching. Note that despite the name, the veneers used are American walnut, rather than redwood. Taking a page from Mercedes' playbook, the Nautilus will also feature a choice of three cartridges that can diffuse scented air through the climate system.

How's the Nautilus' tech?

The concept of a full-width touchscreen on top of the dashboard was the centerpiece of the Byton M-Byte SUV concept, before that startup flamed out. Luckily, the idea wasn't gone forever, with Lincoln stepping in to fully realize the potential of a massive, dash-spanning screen. It measures 48 inches in the Nautilus and stretches from pillar to pillar. The curved enclosure continues through the doors, giving the impression that it absolutely envelops the front passengers. The horizontally oriented 11.1-inch touchscreen isn't as immediately impressive, but we do like that it features wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and over-the-air updates. The Nautilus' infotainment offerings are rounded out by a 28-speaker Revel audio system.

The Nautilus will also launch with the Lincoln BlueCruise 1.2 hands-free driving system (previously called Lincoln ActiveGlide). This suite of advanced safety features is only available on a few vehicles in the Ford ecosystem, and it allows drivers to take their hands off the wheel on certain highways in certain conditions. The 1.2 update introduces a hands-free lane change, slows for upcoming curves, and cheats to the opposite side of the lane when a big rig pulls next to you.

Edmunds says

While the new full-width display screen is undoubtedly the star of the show, other 2024 Nautilus upgrades make this redesigned SUV one to watch, especially the potent yet (probably) efficient hybrid.
