Lincoln Overview

It’s one of the auto industry’s biggest ironies — Lincoln founder, Henry M. Leland, founded Cadillac before leaving in a huff and setting up his crosstown rival in 1917. Originally, it was set up to build Liberty aircraft engines. In 1920, the Lincoln Motor Car Company, named after Abraham Lincoln, was incorporated and the first car was released. At the time, it was reported to cost 10 times that of a Ford. When an economic slump hit, Lincoln went into receivership. Ford’s $8-million purchase saved …

    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

    Gasoline-only trims are the Premiere and Reserve, starting at $52,295 and $59,295 respectively. Expensive options and wheel packages can conspire to push the latter well into the mid-$70,000 bracket. As for the hybrid, it starts at $62,685 though selection of every single option pack will push the total over 80 grand.

    Sitting just under the mighty Navigator on Lincoln’s totem pole of vehicles, the Aviator enjoys the gift of platform with its roots in rear-wheel drive, meaning it benefits from good (read: expensive) German-like proportions compared to some rivals which use front-wheel drive underpinnings.

    2026 Lincoln Aviator Competitors

    There’s no shortage of rivals in the luxurious three-row SUV segment, though the Aviator sets itself apart slightly with a rear-wheel drive architecture. The dull-as-dishwater Cadillac XT6 is technically a competitor, though machines like the Volvo XC90 and Acura MDX are far better options added to the shopping list.

    What’s new with the Lincoln Aviator for 2026?

    Fresh off a 2025 refresh, the 2026 model year understandably doesn’t see many changes. There are tweaks to the coverage and pricing structure of its BlueCruise autonomous driving tool but that’s about all.

    2026 Lincoln Aviator Performance

    Under the hood is a twin-turbocharged V6 engine which makes 400 horsepower and 415 lb-ft of torque when fed a diet of premium fuel. This mill does technically share some roots with the brawny Ford Ranger Raptor, so feel free to brag amongst yer buddies about this SUV’s capabilities. Examples for the Canadian market get all-wheel drive as standard.

    2026 Lincoln Aviator Efficiency

    According to the feds at NRCan, the Lincoln Aviator should return approximately 13.8 L/100 km in a city environment, 9.5 on the highway, and 11.9 combined. A 76-litre fuel tank means this vehicle could make a good road trip companion.

    2026 Lincoln Aviator Safety

    In terms of crash test results, the 2026 Lincoln Aviator achieves a Good rating in the side impact category, a four-star rollover rating, a frontal crash rating of five stars, and an NHTSA overall rating of 5.0 aided by the presence of 12 (front, side, curtain, knee) airbags.

    2026 Lincoln Aviator Reliability

    Consumer Reports gives the Aviator just 22-of-100 for predicted reliability, a score largely based on that outlet’s real-world customer experiences from past years.

    This vehicle was completely overhauled just one model year ago, so it’ll be at least another couple of years before it earns the mighty pillar-to-pillar screen acreage that’s been popping up in other Lincoln models. Still, that 13.2-inch infotainment tombstone should be enough screen for most, as should the 12.4-inch gauge cluster. Snappy leather upholstery looks and feels sumptuous, with Lincoln going all in on the ‘quiet luxury’ ethos thanks to active noise cancelling, clean controls, and warning tones recorded by none other than the Detroit Symphony Orchestra.

    Having undergone a complete makeover for 2024, the Lincoln Nautilus receives just some appearance tweaks and a new connectivity package for 2026. In Lincoln’s SUV-only lineup, this midsize five-seater sits between the larger Aviator and smaller Corvair. It’s available with a gasoline engine but can be optioned with a hybrid powertrain.

    2026 Lincoln Nautilus Competitors

    This is a very crowded segment, and rivals to the Nautilus include the Audi Q5, BMW X3, Cadillac XT5, Genesis GV70, Lexus RX, Mercedes-Benz GLC, and Volvo XC60.

    What’s new with the Lincoln Nautilus for 2026?

    A new Lincoln Connectivity Package is included, with a four-year trial, which adds 5G connectivity, a Wi-Fi hotspot, audio and video streaming, web browser, voice assistant, and entertainment. For exterior colours, Grey Matter Metallic Clearcoat comes in, while Lustrous Grey Metallic and Diamond Red Metallic clearcoat paints are out. For cabin colours, Hot Chocolate is available on the Reserve trim; Black Onyx and Med Light Space Grey are stand-alone shades; but Light/Dark Smoked Truffle and Black Onyx/Allura Blue are gone.

    2026 Lincoln Nautilus Performance

    Both the Premiere and Reserve trims start with a turbocharged 2.0L four-cylinder engine that makes 250 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque, and is mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. Both can be optioned with a hybrid powertrain that also uses a 2.0L four-cylinder, but the combination makes 310 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque, and is mated to an automatic continuously variable transmission (CVT). All models have standard all-wheel drive (AWD).

    In their review of the 2025 Lincoln Nautilus, Nadine Filion and David Booth said, “It’s a fairly standard 2.0-litre four-cylinder EcoBoost but, except for start-up, it proved exceptionally smooth in the Nautilus. Oh, in the mid-January’s cold snap, it sounded rough…but once warmed up, it was as silent and vibration-free as four-bangers get. The eight-speed transmission also shifts pretty darned smoothly. All told, it’s a mite more sophisticated than we’ve come to expect from small(ish) Lincolns of late. It is also more than reasonably powerful…But the turbocharger reacts with minimal lag, throttle response is excellent and, since it is smooth and vibration free as I mentioned, you don’t mind keeping your foot in it. Lincoln says it take about seven seconds to get to 100 kilometres an hour; it feels faster.”

    2026 Lincoln Nautilus Efficiency

    Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) rates the 2026 Nautilus with 2.0L engine at 11.3 L/100 km city, 8.1 highway, and 9.9 combined, for an estimated annual fuel cost of $2,970. The hybrid obviously undercuts that, at 8.2 city, 7.5 highway, and 7.9 combined, for an estimated $2,370 per year. Both take regular-grade gasoline.

    2026 Lincoln Nautilus Safety

    The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) gave the 2025 Nautilus its top five-star crash-test rating. The 2025 version also earned the highest Top Safety Pick+ designation from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) once it earned the top “Good” in crash tests, including the updated moderate front overlap, which now assesses potential injury to a rear-seat passenger, as well as to those in front; and “Good” for its headlights and front pedestrian crash prevention.

    Standard driver-assist technologies include emergency front braking, front and rear parking sensors, 360-degree camera, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, highway driving assist, evasive steering assist, lane-keep assist, post-collision braking, tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS), and Lincoln BlueCruise hands-free driving assist.

    2026 Lincoln Nautilus Reliability

    Consumer Reports gave the 2025 Nautilus a predicted reliability rating of just 24/100, saying it expects it to be “less reliable than the average new car,” based on “limited data” from the 2024 model and on Lincoln’s brand scores. It didn’t take an individual award in the J.D. Power 2025 U.S. Vehicle Dependability Study, which looks at three-year-old vehicles, but Lincoln as a brand ranked 19th among all automakers, seven steps below the industry average.

    2026 Lincoln Nautilus Interior

    Features on the Nautilus Premiere include a 48-inch centre screen, cargo management system, 60/40 split-folding rear seat, comfort front seats with driver memory, ambient lighting, power-adjustable steering wheel, and rain-sensing wipers. The Reserve adds leather-trimmed heated and ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, automatic air refresh with digital scent, and panoramic sunroof. It can be optioned with 24-way adjustable massaging front seats.

    In their review of the 2025 Lincoln Nautilus, Nadine Filion and David Booth said, “I’ve always liked Lincoln seats so much that I wanted them as furniture in our living room. So, for me, those fantastic seats were not a surprise. I slide into them like into a hot tub, not only because of their ferocious warming elements, but because they offer some incredibly strong ‘recovery’ massages. Also, a special bravo for the calf supports that can be raised individually — left and/or right. Voilà, a nice and welcomed break when you’re using the cruise control. I’m telling you, if Lincoln would sell a fauteuil like this as home furniture, it would be my choice.”

    2026 Lincoln Nautilus Dimensions

    The 2026 Lincoln Nautilus has an overall length of 4,907 mm (193.1 inches). Front-seat headroom is 1,005 mm (39.5 in), while the rear seat is 1,012 mm (39.8 in). Legroom in front is 1,105 mm (43.5 in), and those in back get a generous 1,095 mm (43.1 in) of leg space. Cargo volume is 1,030 litres (36.3 cubic feet) with the rear seats up, and 2,020 litres (71.3 cu.ft.) when they’re folded.

    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.

    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

    Gasoline-only trims are the Premiere and Reserve, starting at $52,295 and $59,295 respectively. Expensive options and wheel packages can conspire to push the latter well into the mid-$70,000 bracket. As for the hybrid, it starts at $62,685 though selection of every single option pack will push the total over 80 grand.

    Having undergone a complete makeover for 2024, the Lincoln Nautilus receives just some appearance tweaks and a new connectivity package for 2026. In Lincoln’s SUV-only lineup, this midsize five-seater sits between the larger Aviator and smaller Corvair. It’s available with a gasoline engine but can be optioned with a hybrid powertrain.

    2026 Lincoln Nautilus Competitors

    This is a very crowded segment, and rivals to the Nautilus include the Audi Q5, BMW X3, Cadillac XT5, Genesis GV70, Lexus RX, Mercedes-Benz GLC, and Volvo XC60.

    What’s new with the Lincoln Nautilus for 2026?

    A new Lincoln Connectivity Package is included, with a four-year trial, which adds 5G connectivity, a Wi-Fi hotspot, audio and video streaming, web browser, voice assistant, and entertainment. For exterior colours, Grey Matter Metallic Clearcoat comes in, while Lustrous Grey Metallic and Diamond Red Metallic clearcoat paints are out. For cabin colours, Hot Chocolate is available on the Reserve trim; Black Onyx and Med Light Space Grey are stand-alone shades; but Light/Dark Smoked Truffle and Black Onyx/Allura Blue are gone.

    2026 Lincoln Nautilus Performance

    Both the Premiere and Reserve trims start with a turbocharged 2.0L four-cylinder engine that makes 250 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque, and is mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. Both can be optioned with a hybrid powertrain that also uses a 2.0L four-cylinder, but the combination makes 310 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque, and is mated to an automatic continuously variable transmission (CVT). All models have standard all-wheel drive (AWD).

    In their review of the 2025 Lincoln Nautilus, Nadine Filion and David Booth said, “It’s a fairly standard 2.0-litre four-cylinder EcoBoost but, except for start-up, it proved exceptionally smooth in the Nautilus. Oh, in the mid-January’s cold snap, it sounded rough…but once warmed up, it was as silent and vibration-free as four-bangers get. The eight-speed transmission also shifts pretty darned smoothly. All told, it’s a mite more sophisticated than we’ve come to expect from small(ish) Lincolns of late. It is also more than reasonably powerful…But the turbocharger reacts with minimal lag, throttle response is excellent and, since it is smooth and vibration free as I mentioned, you don’t mind keeping your foot in it. Lincoln says it take about seven seconds to get to 100 kilometres an hour; it feels faster.”

    2026 Lincoln Nautilus Efficiency

    Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) rates the 2026 Nautilus with 2.0L engine at 11.3 L/100 km city, 8.1 highway, and 9.9 combined, for an estimated annual fuel cost of $2,970. The hybrid obviously undercuts that, at 8.2 city, 7.5 highway, and 7.9 combined, for an estimated $2,370 per year. Both take regular-grade gasoline.

    2026 Lincoln Nautilus Safety

    The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) gave the 2025 Nautilus its top five-star crash-test rating. The 2025 version also earned the highest Top Safety Pick+ designation from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) once it earned the top “Good” in crash tests, including the updated moderate front overlap, which now assesses potential injury to a rear-seat passenger, as well as to those in front; and “Good” for its headlights and front pedestrian crash prevention.

    Standard driver-assist technologies include emergency front braking, front and rear parking sensors, 360-degree camera, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, highway driving assist, evasive steering assist, lane-keep assist, post-collision braking, tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS), and Lincoln BlueCruise hands-free driving assist.

    2026 Lincoln Nautilus Reliability

    Consumer Reports gave the 2025 Nautilus a predicted reliability rating of just 24/100, saying it expects it to be “less reliable than the average new car,” based on “limited data” from the 2024 model and on Lincoln’s brand scores. It didn’t take an individual award in the J.D. Power 2025 U.S. Vehicle Dependability Study, which looks at three-year-old vehicles, but Lincoln as a brand ranked 19th among all automakers, seven steps below the industry average.

    2026 Lincoln Nautilus Interior

    Features on the Nautilus Premiere include a 48-inch centre screen, cargo management system, 60/40 split-folding rear seat, comfort front seats with driver memory, ambient lighting, power-adjustable steering wheel, and rain-sensing wipers. The Reserve adds leather-trimmed heated and ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, automatic air refresh with digital scent, and panoramic sunroof. It can be optioned with 24-way adjustable massaging front seats.

    In their review of the 2025 Lincoln Nautilus, Nadine Filion and David Booth said, “I’ve always liked Lincoln seats so much that I wanted them as furniture in our living room. So, for me, those fantastic seats were not a surprise. I slide into them like into a hot tub, not only because of their ferocious warming elements, but because they offer some incredibly strong ‘recovery’ massages. Also, a special bravo for the calf supports that can be raised individually — left and/or right. Voilà, a nice and welcomed break when you’re using the cruise control. I’m telling you, if Lincoln would sell a fauteuil like this as home furniture, it would be my choice.”

    2026 Lincoln Nautilus Dimensions

    The 2026 Lincoln Nautilus has an overall length of 4,907 mm (193.1 inches). Front-seat headroom is 1,005 mm (39.5 in), while the rear seat is 1,012 mm (39.8 in). Legroom in front is 1,105 mm (43.5 in), and those in back get a generous 1,095 mm (43.1 in) of leg space.

    Sitting just under the mighty Navigator on Lincoln’s totem pole of vehicles, the Aviator enjoys the gift of platform with its roots in rear-wheel drive, meaning it benefits from good (read: expensive) German-like proportions compared to some rivals which use front-wheel drive underpinnings.

    2026 Lincoln Aviator Competitors

    There’s no shortage of rivals in the luxurious three-row SUV segment, though the Aviator sets itself apart slightly with a rear-wheel drive architecture. The dull-as-dishwater Cadillac XT6 is technically a competitor, though machines like the Volvo XC90 and Acura MDX are far better options added to the shopping list.

    What’s new with the Lincoln Aviator for 2026?

    Fresh off a 2025 refresh, the 2026 model year understandably doesn’t see many changes. There are tweaks to the coverage and pricing structure of its BlueCruise autonomous driving tool but that’s about all.

    2026 Lincoln Aviator Performance

    Under the hood is a twin-turbocharged V6 engine which makes 400 horsepower and 415 lb-ft of torque when fed a diet of premium fuel. This mill does technically share some roots with the brawny Ford Ranger Raptor, so feel free to brag amongst yer buddies about this SUV’s capabilities. Examples for the Canadian market get all-wheel drive as standard.

    2026 Lincoln Aviator Efficiency

    According to the feds at NRCan, the Lincoln Aviator should return approximately 13.8 L/100 km in a city environment, 9.5 on the highway, and 11.9 combined. A 76-litre fuel tank means this vehicle could make a good road trip companion.

    2026 Lincoln Aviator Safety

    In terms of crash test results, the 2026 Lincoln Aviator achieves a Good rating in the side impact category, a four-star rollover rating, a frontal crash rating of five stars, and an NHTSA overall rating of 5.0 aided by the presence of 12 (front, side, curtain, knee) airbags.

    2026 Lincoln Aviator Reliability

    Consumer Reports gives the Aviator just 22-of-100 for predicted reliability, a score largely based on that outlet’s real-world customer experiences from past years. The related Ford Explorer is slightly higher yet also lags its peers. Predicted owner satisfaction is also low but seems predicated more on estimated future value than tangible problems.

    2026 Lincoln Aviator Interior

    This vehicle was completely overhauled just one model year ago, so it’ll be at least another couple of years before it earns the mighty pillar-to-pillar screen acreage that’s been popping up in other Lincoln models. Still, that 13.2-inch infotainment tombstone should be enough screen for most, as should the 12.4-inch gauge cluster. Snappy leather upholstery looks and feels sumptuous, with Lincoln going all in on the ‘quiet luxury’ ethos thanks to active noise cancelling, clean controls, and warning tones recorded by none other than the Detroit Symphony Orchestra.

    2026 Lincoln Aviator Dimensions

    This three-row luxury SUV measures 5,062 millimetres (199.3 inches) long, 2,090 mm wide with its mirrors folded, and stands 1,768 mm tall. There are 466 litres (16.5 cubic feet) of cargo space behind the third row, or 1,131 litres (40.0 cubes) when it is folded away.

    2026 Lincoln Aviator Canadian Pricing

    This model starts at $79,595 for a Premiere model, including most fees. The Reserve, with snazzier wheels and a few more features, starts at $81,695. Checking every option box on the latter brings the total to within a breath of six figures.
