The crossover segment is booming in the USA, and American brands are leading the pack with SUV models from Lincoln, Ford, and Cadillac selling in high numbers. The superior practicality and utility of these high-riders make them very desirable, but adding a certain flair for luxury and comfort means they are simply irresistible.

New Lincoln SUV models

The Lincoln SUV lineup for the US market includes something for every segment, from compacts through to 7-passenger juggernauts. As premium vehicles, they are generally more expensive, with the highest trim levels asking for significant financial investment. In exchange, you receive well-appointed and spacious automobiles with high safety and reliability ratings, loads of modern tech, and the capability to go where many rivals fear to venture.

Corsair - The smallest of the options from the US automakers, it is powered by a choice of two turbocharged four-cylinder engines. Each is quite potent and comes paired with available AWD. For its size, it is remarkably capable, with a maximum towing capacity of 3,000 lbs and a modicum of off-roading ability. Due to its compact nature and refined power plants, it boasts brilliant gas mileage figures, making it an ideal daily car in and around town.
Nautilus - The slightly larger crossover gets access to a new V6 with 335 horsepower and 380 lb-ft of torque, granting it improved performance. Sadly, the interior is not as opulent as the cost suggests, with subpar materials used in certain instances. It does have a good arrangement of technology, though, and it scores well in every safety review.
Aviator - A reinvigorated 2020 Lincoln SUV, it is one of the larger models for sale, with space enough for 7 seats. This size limits its maneuverability, though the 400 hp and 415 lb-ft gives it more than enough oomph to get around quickly, with an even more potent hybrid on offer. The interior is elegantly styled, though not as luxurious as it could be. And, while the trunk is quite capacious, the 3rd row is definitely not suited for adults.
Navigator - The largest and, arguably, best Lincoln SUV on offer, it is available in standard or extended guise. The latter more easily accommodates all three rows of seats, though both are equally as well-equipped. The cost is exorbitant, and its size negatively impacts ride comfort, especially when the over-sized wheels are equipped, even if they do look great.

FAQs

What are the different Lincoln SUVs?

There are various types of Lincoln SUVs and each targets a specific segment, ranging from compact through to full-size. Working up from the smallest, these include the Corsair, Nautilus, Aviator, Navigator, and Navigator L. Naturally, the price climbs the further up the list you go, but so, too, does the overall value. More space, additional standard tech, and overall comfort improves proportionately in most cases.

What is the most affordable option?

While the cost of a Lincoln SUV is generally considered prohibitive, the smaller variants can be acquired for a reasonable fee in their base guise. The Corsair, for example, starts at around $36k, but once you start climbing the trim levels or tacking on extras, this quickly changes. If you are looking for something more advanced in terms of features, perusing the used market may be preferable. Prestigious brands lose a lot of their resale value the moment they are driven off the lot, but they actually retain a lot of their dependability with a fair number of miles on the clock. This means you might pick up a pretty decent deal without needing to fork out nearly as much cash as you would for something new.

Which model should I buy?

This depends largely on a buyer’s specific needs. However, in terms of value for money and universal application, the Aviator is arguably the most useful. It offers a spacious cabin with room for seven passengers, as well as a list of modern gadgets and conveniences, while not asking for quite as much as the enormous Navigator. On top of all this, it is also off-road capable with a decent towing capacity, meaning that the occasional camping trip is not out of the question. And, if you want to save a few bucks in the long run, the MHEV powertrain presents shoppers with improved fuel economy and even more kick than the standard power plant.
