Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle
This model showed up three years ago, bearing an actual name instead of the ‘gone and gladly forgotten’ alphabet soup with which Lincoln used to saddle its cars. Bearing more than a passing resemblance to its much more expensive brothers, the Corsair is the smallest of four models currently on sale in Lincoln Canada showrooms.
2026 Lincoln Corsair Competitors
Playing in the smaller end of the pool, the Corsair does battle with cars like the Acura RDX, Lexus NX, Volvo XC40, and Audi Q3. Cadillac surrendered this space when it killed off the XT4 and let the XT5 rot on the vine without updates.
What’s new with the Lincoln Corsair for 2026?
No significant changes are expected for the Corsair this year. Look for a potential reshuffling of colour options and interior trim pieces - but yer neighbours will be hard pressed to tell if you got a leftover ‘25 or popped for a span-fire new ‘26. It is unclear if the Corsair will live past its current model cycle.
2026 Lincoln Corsair Performance
The brand denotes its plug-in hybrid trims with a Grand Touring moniker, though world politics could make it difficult to find one on the ground these days. That aside, its electrified guts and 2.5L engine tag-team each other to make 266 combined horsepower. On the other side of the paper are trims with a 2.0L turbocharged engine making 250 ponies and 275 lb-ft of torque. All-wheel drive is standard across the board in this country.
2026 Lincoln Corsair Efficiency
Owners of a gasser Corsair should expect roughly 11.2 L/100km efficiency in town, 8.3 on the highway, and 9.9 combined. Opting for the plug-in hybrid supplies an estimated 43 kilometres of electric-only range when conditions are right; combined with its gasoline-powered part of the equation, NRCan rates the Grand Touring at 6.9 L/100km in the city, 7.4 on the open road, and 7.1 combined.
2026 Lincoln Corsair Safety
The crash test dummies at the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety base some of the Corsair’s scores on results it got for the Ford Escape since both vehicles share most underpinnings. This means the crossover gets top marks in the tough small overlap front test. Like many of its peers, the Corsair gets a Marginal rating on the updated side impact test, an new exam which places more weight in a higher impact zone than the old test.
2026 Lincoln Corsair Reliability
The dweebs at Consumer Reports places the Corsair smack dab in the middle of the road on its measure for predicted owner satisfaction. However, they blow raspberries at it for predicted reliability, doling out a 34-of-100 score which seems based at least in part on the configuration of certain in-car infotainment controls rather than outright breakdowns.
2026 Lincoln Corsair Interior
While this luxury crossover may share some underpinnings with its lesser Blue Oval cousin, Lincoln has done a great job of making the Corsair completely different than anything in a Ford showroom. Its cabin is well appointed and options like 24-way Perfect Position seats are some of the most comfortable thrones this side of Germany. Jazzy red upholstery can (and should) be spec’d rather than dour black or grey.
2026 Lincoln Corsair Dimensions
Total length of this vehicle is 181.4 inches or 4,676 millimetres; if you’re looking for a familiar yardstick, this places it within a few hairs of the popular Lexus NX. Width with the mirrors folded is 76.2 inches (1,935 mm) while height checks in at 64.1 inches (1,628 mm).
2026 Lincoln Corsair Canadian Pricing
