The all-new 2024 Lincoln Nautilus exterior
Lincoln debuted its all-new 2024 Nautilus SUV in New York on Monday, April 17, according to a press release from the OEM. Continuing with its brand-wide theme of sanctuary, the two-row midsize SUV was designed and engineered to appeal to its younger, global customers, offering choices in technology, design, and powertrains based on their needs and lifestyles in a digital space. It features an available hybrid powertrain and an optional 2.0-liter turbocharged hybrid engine as well as new connected features including Lincoln BlueCruise 1.2 hands-free highway driver-assist technology.
Interior cabin now features a instrumental panel that spans the vehicle
“For more than a century, Lincoln has been recognized for its exquisite design and craftsmanship, and as we look ahead to the future, we reimagined the cabin experience and what the sanctuary can become for our clients,” said Lincoln President Dianne Craig. “The 2024 Nautilus will elevate our portfolio and offer our global clients an all-new, compelling SUV with connected experiences and features that make it just as fun to drive as it is to relax in.”
Most notable is its interior redesign, which now features an instrument panel stretching from door to door and is controlled by a center console touchscreen. If sensory input is an issue, Lincoln says that the screen to the right can be “muted” in calm mode. New ambient lighting (Lincoln Embrace) and connectivity for Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, and Alexa Built-in help to personalize the experience.
The Nautilus will be available in late 2024
Beyond Lane Change Assist and Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) capabilities as well as its five standard drive modes (normal, conserve, excite, slippery and deep conditions), the Nautilus now has Lincoln BlueCruise 1.2 that makes hands-free driving even better with new features and system improvements to create more of a human-like driving feel, says the OEM. The connected vehicle will continue to receive software updates via its 5G network capability.
Lincoln swaps out its previous V-6 offering for a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine with 250 horsepower to maximize fuel efficiency. All wheel drive is now standard. Alternatively, Lincoln plans to offer a 2.0-liter turbocharged hybrid engine (100kW electric motor) with 310 horsepower.
The all-new vehicle is expected to arrive in North America showrooms in early 2024. Visit lincoln.com for more information.
