2024 Model Redesign Year

This luxurious two-row midsized SUV boasts an optional hybrid powertrain and a wide display screen that wraps around the front of the cabin. The base engine is a 250-hp, 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder. The optional hybrid powertrain adds another 60 hp and delivered an impressive 30 mpg overall in our testing. The cabin is quiet and the ride seems comfortable at first, but it gets unsettled easily on rough roads. Handling is short on agility but secure. The cabin looks swanky and is well put together.

But the oblong steering wheel feels strange in your hands, and the center infotainment touchscreen is too low. Plus, it's annoying that you have to go through the screen to adjust the dash vents. The ultrawide driver's screen looks impressive but is daunting to use. Rear-seat room is generous. The excellent BlueCruise active driving assistance system is available.

2024-Present

2024 Model Redesign Year

The Nautilus is redesigned for 2024. In addition to styling updates, the two-row midsized luxury SUV boasts an optional hybrid drivetrain and a wide display screen that wraps around the front of the cabin. The base engine is a 250-hp, 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder paired with an eight-speed automatic, and standard all-wheel drive; the optional 310-hp hybrid powertrain can be ordered on all trim levels and is mated to a continuously variable transmission. Two-tone paint and a blacked-out trim package are optional. All of the latest active safety features come standard. Ford's excellent BlueCruise (formerly called ActiveGlide) active driving assistance system is available as a subscription.

2019-2023

2019 Model Redesign Year

The Nautilus is a refreshed version of the MKX SUV for 2019. Engine choices are either a powerful 2.7-liter V6 turbo or a 2.0-liter four-cylinder turbo. An eight-speed automatic transmission is standard. We found that the Nautilus with the more powerful engine delivers effortless power, a comfortable ride, a quiet cabin, and agile handling. The cabin is swanky, and the infotainment system is relatively easy to use. The only knock against this SUV is its unintuitive, fussy push-button gear selector.

The unimpressive fuel economy of 18 mpg overall that we measured in the MKX should improve slightly, thanks to the new transmission. Lincoln has added new safety features, including a lane-centering feature and evasive steer assist that allows the SUV to steer around a vehicle stopped in front if the system determines a collision is likely and can't be avoided by braking alone. The Nautilus got an improved infotainment system called Sync 4 for 2021.
