    Lincoln Unveils the 2020 Corsair in New York

      ... Latest entry to round out Lincoln's remade crossover lineup...

    At the New York International Auto Show today, Lincoln unveiled the 2020 Lincoln Corsair.  The Corsair is a small crossover that takes over for the MKC in Lincoln's lineup and joins the new Lincoln Aviator, Lincoln Nautilus, and Lincoln Navigator

    Lincoln says the Corsair has "Visually soothing design" and offers a sanctuary for drivers.  Effortless power comes standard.

    large.All-New-2020-Lincoln-Corsair_Interior-01_72-DPI.jpgCustomers can use their phone as a key to enter the cabin, and should their phone go dead, they can use the standard exterior keypad and then the interior touch screen to enter and start driving.  If the customers phone is lost or stolen, the digital key can easily be deleted.  The key saves a profile of up to 80 driver preferences to be automatically adjusted when a specific driver enters the vehicle. 

    Lincoln designers obsessed over interior quietness, providing things like a double wall dashboard to create extra space between the engine and driver.  This is further enhanced with standard Active Noise Cancellation.  Six unique symphonic chimes inform the driver of various status in and around the vehicle.  The chimes were recorded by the Detroit Symphony Orchestra.  When you do want sound, there is a 14-speaker Revel sound system tuned specifically for the Corsair.

    Power for the Corsair comes in the form of either a 250 horsepower 2.0 Ecoboost with 275 lb-ft of torque, or a 2.3 liter Ecoboost with 280 hp and 310 lb-ft of torque. Power is sent to the wheels via a new 8-speed automatic to either the front or all wheels.

    Lincoln Co-Pilot360 is standard and comes with automatic emergency braking and Pedestrian Detection, Blind Spot Information System, a Lane-Keeping System, rear backup camera and auto high-beam lighting.  Co-Pilot360 Plus is an option that adds Adaptive cruise control, Evasive steer assist, Reverse brake assist, and Active Park Assist Plus. 

    The 2020 Lincoln Corsair will be built in Lincoln's Louisville Assembly Plant in Louisville, Kentucky, and will be arriving in dealerships this fall.

    I think the interior looks fantastic other than the HVAC pod shape that looks like it came off a last gen Escape.  I am not a fan of the push button shifter but that is on all Lincolns.  Really pretty looking interior though and definitely among the best of the 20 or so small SUVs out there.  

    Good power out of the engines too, I like that there are 2 engines and this should move well unless it is obese.

    This should be popular. Good work. Not a fan of the standing up tablet but that’s getting typical. 

    Great base engine specs. Cadillac doesn’t seem to get that. Should make this Lincoln zoom

    The nicest CUV in its class, easily.  Makes the Cadillac TX4, or whatever it's called, look like the cardboard box the Corsair was shipped in.  And take a look at those power figures... this is luxury car power.

    Just a matter of opinion from my end. Just not as enamored with it as you clearly. 

    I’m just speaking of the color. I love seeing colored leathers!

    It is a nice Nautical theme color contrast but not sure I would want it for years of driving. Would rather have a nice Moca interior. Much warmer.

    Interesting...I kind of like the blue, but don't care for the gray.  If it were all blue, that might be interesting.   I see they are doing the white trim like on the blue interior Navis...

    Motor Trend won't allow me to save images in a format that I can upload but scroll through the pictures and find the blue/teal leather interior.

    The "chimes" recorded by the Detroit  Symphony Orchestra were completely aimed at people like me who love that type of stuff but think no one else does.

    It's also a nice separation from Ford for those who don't really care about the cool-factor.

    Nice power figures, but I just can not get with the looks.. as I am not able to get with the looks of its two CUV/SUV higher ups. 237 hp/258 lb⋅ft from the XT4 in a 3660lb vehicle vs the Corsair at 280/310 is a nice advantage in power, but only depending on the weight of the Lincoln, which will most likely be about 100-150 lbs heavier. OBJECTIVELY SPEAKING.. the Blazer, for instance, proved that even with more HP,  the Flex ST wasn't exactly much faster in any dynamic.

    Your welcome,

    I totally agree, I like the separation with the cool chimes. Cadillac should dump the GM traditional noise makers and have a luxury inspired sounds.

    no. I'm using chrome is it a browser issue?

    No, I use chrome, opera and firefox and they all have it. Maybe it is a permission thing since I have writer privilege for the site. @Drew Dowdell could answer that best I believe.

    If you're a premium subscriber $1.75 a month or $15 a year, that restriction gets removed and so do almost all of the ads.  Plus.. it helps the site out a little bit with the cost of running the place.

    • Except Jon...NOBODY is fighting for this constitution republic.   Lots of words talking about fighting for this constitution republic. But NO actual action...  Crickets... Oh wait...clown suits...   THIS is how its actually done in countries that are NOT afraid... And look...no guns are used if gun violence is frowned upon...    The clown suits have done nothing...and if it was mildly successful...the clown suits have...stopped. Like I keep on saying... CRICKETS... 
    • A compendium of California car chronicling - say that three times real fast ... Entering Topanga Canyon, but still inside an L.A. zip code, was this Beverly Hillbillies type of truck set against the dry vegetation in the foothills and canyons. Hey, come back here! Seen going toward Ventura and Santa Barbara was this vision.  I think the convertible works very well with the shapes below the beltline.  The notch on the Riv coupe was a little more challenging.  If we got to grow up around cars like this, we were very lucky! Seen while getting fuel and donuts was this older Chevy beauty.  It's not just me who loves silver and red/burgundy.  I don't know if this was true to factory, but it didn't matter.  However, it had that simple and durable 283 c.i. V8 and a 2 or 3 speed automatic.  I believe it was a 1962 Bel Air per my brief conversation with the owner. Wow ... that's the last-gen Riv and the place I saw it surprised me.  That's in South Central L.A.  You wouldn't have wanted to go in there when I was a kid.  That's a new housing block they built.  The other thing is that the 105 Freeway cuts through the base of South Central and you can get on and off easily with its bigger ramps. I saw this 1998 Olds Intrigue and remember how much I wanted one when they were released.  It all worked itself out ... some 10 years later! Hollywood Boulevard spotting, practically in front of the famed Chinese Theater ... some older "cherry" Chevy full size coupes and God knows what that black vehicle was.
    • Im not so sure about that.  fox "news" and trump propaganda has played a huuuuge role in deceiving these people.  And that level of deception ONLY deceives the weak, stupid and racist.     Not in denial.  Most of these maga filth are enablers, BECAUSE trump promises acceptance of racism, these vile uneducated  human beings  are ok in getting phoqued by the oligarchs of the usa BECAUSE the non-white population of the usa is getting phoqued WORSE than they are.   Any trump supporter is an ignorant soul.   Some trump supporters are racist and enable the corruption BECAUSE trump promises bad things to happen to non-whites.  These people are smart enough to understand the 'wink wink' language of trump.    But racism is bred by ignorance... They enable the corruption but are too stupid to understand ALL the consequences that pertain to trump's corruption. Jim Beam is closing down its main distillery in Kentucky factory for a year.   https://robbreport.com/food-drink/spirits/jim-beam-shutting-down-one-of-its-distilleries-in-1237417543/  https://apnews.com/article/jim-beam-bourbon-distillery-shutdown-kentucky-a8303cd04005a9108ff43690faad421b   Tariffs are a beautiful thing...  And the idiot americans bought into it.  CANADIANS (not Canada...and if you are smart, you will KNOW the difference and the meaning as to why I present it this way...) has boycotted american liquor.    Not realizing the consequences of tariffs and ESPECIALLY the insulting 51st state rhetoric.   The american idiots BELIEVE the excuses that its not the Canadian boycott that is causing a small down in kentucky booze sales but millennials not drinking because millennials believe drinking=bad...   jim beam... 55 million gallons of booze less in sales.  Didnt know that millennials NEEDED to drink THAT much of alcohol.  SHYTE!!!  Boomers and Gen Xers are phoquing alcoholics...  Here is another... The CEO of jack daniels said that boycotting Canadians are not a problem because Canadian sales are ONLY 1% of jack daniels sales... Well... https://www.kentucky.com/lexgoeat/bourbon/article313389656.html   "Jack Daniel’s parent says profits down 14% for quarter. $59M in losses this year" "Fiscal 2026 outlook is expected to remain challenging, the company said, “with low visibility due to macroeconomic and geopolitical volatility as we face headwinds from consumer uncertainty,” among other factors. Organic net sales and organic operating income are expected to continue to decline for the full year, the company said." Read more at: https://www.kentucky.com/lexgoeat/bourbon/article313389656.html#storylink=cpy   1. The jack daniels ceo laughed and scoffed at Candians boycotting them.  A CEO of a big business like the whiskey business and a big company like jack daniels should NEVER laugh at 1% sales losses...   2. Morons believed the LIE that Canada is ONLY 1% of jack daniels sales... 3. The ceo is a MORON himself following trump as he should have known better of the consequences of pissing off an ENTIRE nation...  4.  MORE lay offs in the kentucky area in the whisky business...  ALL of them maga a$$hol3$!!!   Not a sinlge brain cell between ALL of them NOT realizing the consequences and believing the deception of fox "news" and trump's words... YES!!! Do NOT be surprised.  THAAAAT many americans are THAAAAAQAQT phoquing stupid.  1. Since the 1960s or at least the 1970s...education has been defunded in your country. 2. Since at least the 1970s, ignorance has been worshipped in your country.   And ESPECIALLY the last 15 years.  Nah...just their vile bitterness and racism and as long as the non-white folk suffer more than them.  The hatred of these uneducated filth is truly a sickening site. So much so, that whatever trump tells them, they will believe it.  Canada became an enemy of the usa somehow, and these phoquers licked all that shyte up.  Canada has stayed away from visiting your loser country and all the touristy areas in your country are begging Canadians to come back.   So much ignorance involved as they do not understand why Canadians are not visiting and will not visit for a very long time.  But they did vote for trump knowing he was hell bent on destroying Canada.  And in these touristy places KNOW that Canada is what pays there dreams and wishes...  But these touristy places ALSO lay blame to Canadians as to why we are NOT visiting and blame us for their financial downfalls...  Not too bright as people if you ask me... It does not look like it... This mess you guys have put yourselves in is going to last a while longer.  A LOT while longer. Why? There is NO phoquing push back from ANYBODY in your useless country...  In Bangladesh...the people are revolting... https://news.un.org/en/story/2025/12/1166642  In Greece...the Greeks revolted when there was a train crash in 2023 that killed many and didnt like the authority's explanations as to why it happened...but as recent as this month... https://freedomnews.org.uk/2025/12/15/farmers-revolt-in-greece/ farmers are revolting... The authorities are threating farmers with criminal intent...yet Greek farmers are revolting... Why? FREEDOMS AND DEMOCRACY AND ALL OF THAT CRAP!!! After more than ten days of nationwide mobilisation, farmers’ protests last week escalated into open confrontation and clashes with riot police. Protesters have faced arrests and upgraded charges, while in Crete authorities are threatening to prosecute farmers under accusations of forming a “criminal organisation.” From the mountains of Macedonia and Epirus to the plains of Thessaly and Aitoloakarnania, and from olive-growing Messinia to tourist-heavy Crete, thousands of low- and lower-middle-income farmers have taken to the roads. National highways have been shut down, cutting key transport routes and effectively splitting the country into parts. Tractor convoys are marching through major towns and cities, border crossings, ports and airports have been occupied for hours, and state institutions have been targeted with militant interventions. The farmers’ movement has moved decisively beyond symbolic protest.       In the usa...crickets... There are MANY times where americans could have avoided this mess they find themselves in.  We COULD start in January of 2020.    crickets.... We could start with the 34 or so felonies he was convicted of but NO sentencing... crickets... We could start with the mar-a-lago court case when trump hoarded all those classified files and the case was not even addressed in court because trump bought himself out of that... crickets... Epstein files... crickets... Yeah...the whole lot of you are stupid and ignorant if you ask me...   COWARDS more than anything else as well!!!
