What’s New

• The base trim level is now called Premiere.
• In that case, everything will remain the same in 2024.
• The first release of the 2020 Corsair generation.

The 2024 Corsair is the least expensive Lincoln SUV in their range. Similar to the Ford Escape small SUV, but different from the Ford lineup by having classy looks that hint at its more expensive siblings, a plusher interior with high-end touches like a digital instrument panel, and a wide range of optional features, such as an adaptive suspension system that makes the Corsair ride smoother. A turbocharged four-cylinder engine comes standard, but you can also get a plug-in hybrid with an electric range of about 27 miles.

BlueCruise, Ford, and Lincoln’s hands-free driving help system is now available, which is another big improvement over the Ford Escape. On most split U.S. roads, this technology lets you drive without taking your hands off the steering wheel, but there are some extra requirements. It’s not a self-driving system, but it can make driving easier and less painful in some ways. BlueCruise is only offered on the most expensive Corsair models, which is a shame, and after four years, you have to pay for a subscription for it to keep working.

There are a lot of rivals in the compact luxury SUV class, such as the Cadillac XT4, which is Corsair’s crosstown rival, and companies from other countries. The Genesis GV70, the luxurious Mercedes-Benz GLC, and the reasonably priced Acura RDX are some of Invoice Pricing top picks. The Corsair could be better in this group, but it’s still worth looking at if you want a plug-in hybrid or want to be able to drive your next SUV without using your hands.
