Chronology
Predecessor Lincoln MKX

The Lincoln Nautilus is a mid-size luxury crossover SUV[1] marketed and sold by the Lincoln brand of Ford Motor Company. The Nautilus was initially renamed from the MKX as part of a mid-cycle update in 2018 for the 2019 model year, as Lincoln phased out its use of "MK" model names.[2] The name 'Nautilus' is derived from the ancient Greek word nautes, meaning "sailor," as in nautical or astronaut.[3]

The first generation is based on the CD4 platform, and was manufactured at Oakville Assembly in Oakville, Ontario, Canada alongside the Ford Edge, Ford Flex, and Lincoln MKT and manufactured in Hangzhou Assembly in Zhejiang, China by joint venture Changan Ford from 2021 to 2023. The second generation is solely produced by Changan Ford in China, as Ford is retooling the Oakville Assembly plant to produce electric vehicles.[4]

The Lincoln Nautilus was released as the mid-cycle revision of the second-generation MKX in November 2017 for the 2019 model year.[2] Adopting the styling of the newly introduced Continental and Navigator, the Nautilus transitioned from the previous split-wing grille to a large rectangular grille with a large Lincoln star emblem.

The counterpart of the updated Ford Edge, the Nautilus is slotted between the Aviator and the MKC (which was replaced by the Corsair for the 2020 model year) in Lincoln's lineup. A 245-horsepower (248 PS; 183 kW) 2.0-liter EcoBoost inline-four is the standard engine, with a 335-horsepower (340 PS; 250 kW) 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 carried over from the MKX as an option; both engines are fitted with start-stop capability. An 8-speed automatic transmission is paired to both engines (replacing the previous 6-speed).

For the 2021 model year, the Nautilus was once again refreshed with a new interior similar to the new Navigator, Aviator, and Corsair, featuring a larger 13.2" touchscreen and Ford's latest SYNC 4 system.[6] Minor changes were also made to the front bumper.[7]

The second-generation Nautilus was released in 2023 for the Chinese market. It is a mid-size SUV with five seats, available with either a gasoline or a hybrid gasoline-electric powertrain.[12][13] The U.S. market Nautilus was unveiled on April 17, 2023, and went on sale in early 2024, imported from China.[14] The GCC market Nautilus was launched on February 12, 2024.[15]

The interior is characterized by a high mounted dashboard spanning 48-inch display, which integrates both the instrument cluster and forms part of the infotainment system along with a 11.1-inch touchscreen display. The upper display consists of two 24-inch displays mounted directly next to each other, and is controlled by the lower touchscreen display, where the user can drag and drop 'widgets' to configure the display contents. The second generation Nautilus is the first model to feature the new Ford/Lincoln Digital Experience, which replaces Ford SYNC 4/4a and is based on Android Automotive.

The Nautilus has two powertrain options, a gasoline engine with a hybrid version. The standard engine is a 2.0 L turbocharged 4-cylinder making Lua error in Module:Convert at line 272: attempt to index local 'cat' (a nil value). and Lua error in Module:Convert at line 272: attempt to index local 'cat' (a nil value). of torque which is mounted to an eight-speed automatic transmission. The hybrid version combines the same engine with a Lua error in Module:Convert at line 272: attempt to index local 'cat' (a nil value). electric motor through a planetary gearset eCVT to achieve a total system output of Lua error in Module:Convert at line 272: attempt to index local 'cat' (a nil value).. All Nautilus models come with all-wheel drive standard and have transverse mounted engines.[16][17]

The standard Nautilus achieves Lua error in Module:Convert at line 272: attempt to index local 'cat' (a nil value). on the EPA's city, highway, and combined cycles respectively, while with hybrid power it gets Lua error in Module:Convert at line 272: attempt to index local 'cat' (a nil value). on the same rating system.

The suspension consists of a McPherson strut setup for the front wheels and a multilink independent suspension for the rear, with optional adaptive dampers.
