Great vehicle once you get used to all the options. But at certain highway speeds there seems to be a thumping / rattling noise that I cannot find... Anyone else hearing this type of noise almost like something loose under the vehicle? Took it in to have checked and of course the noise wasnt happening and even on the test drive, but yep its still there...

I love to drive this hybrid suv , it’s fun and responsive , amazing technology more loaded than my previous continental black label , soft steering wheel and incredible suspension, the size is perfect for a small family of 4 , you can schedule a tutorial via video call to learn how to control the technology which it’s impressive all options.

Horrible drive quality

The transmission feels like it’s struggling. Going from 0-30 it struggles and shifts so many times. The car is the worse driving car I’ve ever owned. The suspension is also terrible - it is literally a bouncy ride the whole time. Whoever sent this vehicle out of production as finished should be fired. I do not recommend. Sad because we love Lincoln cars but they have failed horribly on this one.

We have a 2019 Navigator that has rendered excellent service. I have owned Q56 and Denali SUV and several Lexus LS. The Navigator is the best. So after researching the prospective 2024 Nautilus we decided to trade in my wifes Volvo for a Reserve model. For the Pros; the car is beautiful, extremely comfortable, quiet, plenty of power, lots of cargo room, great turning radius, nice audio, and really effective driver assistance, (once you figure out the controls). The Cons; piano shifter, (don't like it on the Navigator either), the instrument panel is too dark and is subject to glare from the flat dashboard in front, assisted driving engagement controls are not marked on the steering wheel, the tech is overly complicated and is very inconvenient and dangerous to have to study the touch screen while driving. We still like the car and maybe in a couple of years we will learn how to operate it. It is a very good buy for a young person.

Red Reserve II with Hybrid upgrade, $65k out the door. It feels luxurious, rides nice and has some cool technology. It also falls short in a few places. The Shortcomings The driver seat sits up too high. Because of the 4 foot dash, you need to sit high so you can see out the windshield. But it's too high for someone tall-waisted like me. The two tiny dome lights are too bright and distracting. To get them dimmed, you have to turn down the adjustment so far that the rest of the dash is too dim. The brakes sometimes grab hard when you first start driving. This startled me. The techie vent controls are mentioned often as being ridiculous. In general, the controls on the smaller screen such as AM/FM, map view options, change radio stations, go to Calm mode, etc. are hard to see, prone to a touching error and distracting to the point of causing an accident. The standard floor mats and carpet are poor quality. The warning tones, such as seatbelt not fastened, are abusive. The Good Stuff It looks fantastic. I get compliments are the time. The 4 foot screen is impressive. The interior feels luxurious (except the carpet). It gets good mileage (31 or so on the highway as advertised) It has a fluffy ride yet accelerates well. The road noise is minimal. The seats are comfortable. The sound system (Rebel) is great. The dedicated volume button is good. The dedicated camera button is good. The intermittent wipers work well. Blue Cruise is awesome. I didn't think I'd use it but I do. It allows me to focus on upcoming traffic rather than staying centered in the lane and staying right at a particular speed. The Google maps integration is fantastic. You have 2 maps and great audio. The seats are roomy in front and back and the storage area is large. I like the braking coach. It tells you when you're breaking efficiently (or inefficiently). I've taken it on (2) 3-4 hour trips and the trips were satisfying and didn't make me tired. Overall, I am happy with my decision. For trips, the Blue Cruise is a game-changer and I love the looks, the regular gas and the great mileage. UPDATE: I've owned the Nautilus Reserve II hybrid for 9 months. I love it. It turns heads. It gets good mileage (29/31). The interior is luxurious. It is roomy. The ride is soft but I'm getting older so that's ok. It accelerates fine with the hybrid. The 48in screen impresses. The blue cruise works great. On the weaker side, the seat sits a little high. The brakes are a little grabby when you press hard. The vent controls are dumb. But overall, I still love getting into the car. I get compliments on the styling all the time. The integration of google maps is awesome. For example, I planned a trip on my desktop at home, doing many searches for the hotels, points of interest, etc. As we took the trip, the navigation system sometimes popped up the next destination "automatically", as if it knew the next stop. I got out of a sporty sedan for this and it's been a good transition for me.
