Why it stands out

The 2023 Lincoln Nautilus stands out as a midsize, two-row luxury SUV that leans into comfort, style, and a more upscale feel than its mainstream roots might suggest. In its first generation, it paired a classy new name with a refreshed exterior that replaced the split “baleen” grille with a single horizontal layout and chrome latticework, while slimmer LED headlights and turbine-like wheels gave it a more polished look. Inside, the 2023 model benefited from the generation’s well-executed cabin, though the plasticky centre stack and centre console kept it from feeling fully premium.

What makes the 2023 Nautilus especially appealing is the balance it struck between everyday usability and luxury features. It came with Sync 3, a digital 12.3-inch instrument panel, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and a standard suite of driver-assist features, along with heated and 10-way power front seats, leather seating, ambient lighting, navigation, and a power tilt/telescoping steering wheel. Buyers also had access to the optional twin-turbo 2.7-litre V6, which was described as quiet and effortless with 335 hp and 380 lb-ft of torque, while the standard turbocharged four-cylinder was noted as not powerful enough for an SUV this large.

There are still a few compromises to keep in mind. The Nautilus was praised for its smooth ride, comfortable seats, and ample power on long cruises, but its vague steering and soft suspension made it less engaging than sportier rivals. Even so, the 2023 model remains attractive for shoppers who want a refined, comfortable luxury SUV with strong equipment and a distinctive Lincoln identity.
