2024 Lincoln Corsair

Redesigned for 2020, the Corsair is a pleasant compact luxury SUV. It replaced the MKC and is much improved. The standard 2.0-liter turbo provides plenty of motivation, so we don't think the optional 2.3-liter turbo is necessary. The Corsair rides very comfortably and is quiet inside. Handling is very responsive and secure. The front seats aren't everyone's cup of tea due to their uneven support. The rear seat is roomy in its rearmost position. Fit and finish are impressive, and adding flair, the center stack appears to be floating in the air. The infotainment screen is easy to use, but the push-button gear selector is unintuitive. Many advanced safety features come standard, including forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, blind spot warning, and rear cross traffic warning. A plug-in hybrid model with roughly 25 miles of electric range joined the line for 2021. Note that adaptive cruise control was a separate option but became standard for 2024. Lane centering assistance became standard in 2025. 2026 is the final year of production for the Corsair.

Brand context

About Lincoln

Lincoln is Ford’s luxury brand, and most Lincoln models are fancier, quieter versions of existing Ford SUVs. The Lincoln Navigator, for example, is based on the Ford Expedition, and the Lincoln Corsair is based on the Ford Escape. Some models are available as hybrids. Lincoln SUVs tend to come with standard leather seating surfaces, large screens, and sound deadening. That interior quality paired with lively powertrains have earned some models Consumer Reports’ recommendation. Lincoln stopped building sedans when it discontinued the Continental and MKZ in 2020. As a brand, for new and used car reliability, road-test scores, and owner satisfaction ratings, Lincoln tends to be average.
