2021 Lincoln Nautilus gave a clean interior design for 2021 to align the mid-size SUV with the rest of the company’s product line. The new dashboard design includes a larger 13.2-inch infotainment screen with the latest version of the Ford Sync 4 operating system.

In conclusion, Fancy Black Label models can now be ordered with two new built-in themes (Chalet and Flight), while standard and stock versions are available with Sandstone or Black Ebony. The only notable exterior change is an optimized lower front bumper.

Engine, Transmission, and Performance
The base engine of the Nautilus series is a 2.0-liter four-cylinder turbo engine that produces 250 horsepower. Is equipped with an eight-speed automatic transmission and is available for front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive.
Our original four-wheel-drive test vehicle achieved a 6.8-second time from zero to 60 mph, moving the V-6-powered Lexus RX350 in 0.1 seconds, but with a 0.2-second delay on the Cadillac XT5. We also tested the optional 335bhp 2.7 liter V6 turbo and it delivered a quick 0-100 km/h time of 5.9 seconds.

The Reserve and Black Label models and the Select all-wheel drive have three steering modes (Comfort, Normal, and Sport) for an added level of personalization.
Lincoln Nautilus Interior
Lincoln Nautilus cabin is furnished with beautiful materials, more luxurious leather, metal, and wood finishes. Almost everything on our Black Label and original test vehicles has been covered with soft leather, and the roof lining on Black Label models is covered with faux suede.
Even though the Nautilus shares the platform with the Ford Edge, buyers are unlikely to be suspicious. While the vehicles are equally spacious, the Lincoln cabin offers more style and substance in the form of optional 22-position adjustable seats, a standard digital instrument panel, and gearshifts.
System Infotainment and Connectivity
With the exception of the 12.3-inch touchscreen, all 2021 Lincoln Nautilus models have a 13.2-inch touchscreen infotainment display. The latest Ford Sync 4 infotainment software is easy to use and offers the latest features, including live updates.
Compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, an 11-speaker audio system and 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot are standard, navigation and a wireless smartphone charging station.
