The proof is in the details, and, as with all Lincoln models, the Lincoln Corsair boasts numerous distinguishing elements and impressive curb appeal. From first glances to last looks, there’s much to see and appreciate about the Lincoln Corsair. You and your passengers will be welcomed with a virtual hug upon entering its spa-like cabin, complete with symphonic chimes, sequential lighting, and lavish amenities.
Distinctive Exterior
Others will know you’re driving a Lincoln from the moment you pull into view, thanks to its bold front grille and refined LED headlights and taillights.

Lincoln Corsair vs. The Competition
When comparing the Lincoln Corsair and the Acura RDX, you’ll notice many similarities. Still, the differences between them are more glaring, especially for what the RDX fails to provide. While the Lincoln Corsair offers a hybrid powertrain and hands-free driving through Lincoln BlueCruise, neither option is available from Acura. The much-larger touchscreen in the Lincoln is a bonus that just happens to come standard.
Lincoln Corsair | vs | RDX |
|---|---|---|
| Available | HYBRID POWERTRAIN | Not Offered |
| 13.2 inches | STANDARD TOUCHSCREEN | 10.2 inches |
| Available | HANDS-FREE DRIVING | Not Offered |
Lincoln has long been one of the leaders in the luxury class, a title that BMW continues to aspire to. Perhaps their disparity may lie in how each brand defines the term. Clearly, riders in both rows will prefer the additional legroom in the Lincoln Corsair. Lead on, Lincoln.
Lincoln Corsair | vs | X3 |
|---|---|---|
| Available | HANDS-FREE DRIVING | Not Offered |
| Available | HYBRID POWERTRAIN | Not Offered |
| 43.2/38.6 inches | LEGROOM (FIRST/SECOND ROW) | 40.3/36.4 inches |
What defines true luxury? Seamless technology, serene comfort, and power that moves with purpose. The Lincoln Corsair embodies all three, delivering a design and performance that elevate every drive. Compared to the Lexus NX, the Lincoln Corsair offers more space, more standard hybrid horsepower, and a more commanding connection between driver and destination.

| 13.2 in. | STANDARD TOUCHSCREEN | 9.8 in. |
| 266 HP | STANDARD HYBRID NET HORSEPOWER | 240 HP |
| 43.2/38.6 in. | LEGROOM (FIRST/SECOND ROW) | 41/36.1 in. |
