Expert Reviews

Expert reviews:

Lincoln has given the Nautilus a thorough interior redesign for 2021, bringing the mid-size SUV in line with the rest of the company's lineup. A new dashboard design incorporates a larger 13.2-inch infotainment display running the latest version of Ford's Sync 4 operating system. Lincoln's now-pervasive piano-key shifter replaces last year's push-button setup.

PROS
Comfort-tuned suspension,
nicely-outfitted cabin,
large infotainment display.

CONS
Top Black Label model's eye-watering price,
lacks athleticism,
not as fuel efficient as other similar SUVs.
