    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 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.

      Pretty much. I saw a homepage blip about him years ago, read up on his background, and decided I didn't like him. Then I heard this happened from across the pond. I was looking at some videos with reporters and such to obtain information and the status of the situation.  I thought I wouldn't have to see the actual event.  One news video flipped over to it quickly and it was more powerful and more disturbing than I would have imagined.   I backed up to see some past videos where he is on.  Yeah, I've tossed out a fair bit of stereotyping in my life, but he tossed out so much racism and dislike toward anyone who is not white, religious, conservative, and has a picket fence existence.  And its delivery was consistently vile and condescending. He was yet another podcaster who made his living this way.  He had quite the motor mouth, so he could have gone to law school, taken the bar, and gone to work.  That would have been too much work, given that he only did a year of college and dropped out.  This new way people are making a living doesn't make for much value-added.

      When I saw this, I thought of you guys and how much most of you love Tesla.  This is obviously where they unload these nasty cars. This is what I saw walking from the marine terminal in Southampton to the train station to fly out to warm weather that same afternoon. I was following some Europeans with luggage across the street and a green turning lane was still in effect.  A local started yelling at us from his car in that working class brand of UK talk, including all "you 'effin' idiots."  At least I could understand it.  I need a translator for heavy-duty Scottish talk. The crossing was good.  The ship stayed close to Canada all the way up to Newfoundland and then crossed.  There was only one day of light chop.  There were 2 poolside days in the beginning.  That meant indoor jacuzzis under the glass roof for the rest of the crossing. Of four trips, the cabin was the best I've had.  The composition of the table was marginal compared to previous trips.  I won't go into it or I wouldn't be P.C.  I reverted to the open seating option on a few nights. With all that, I didn't want to get off.  A few others said the same thing.  If the seas are good, it's incredibly relaxing.  You're just lulled into another state and it's mostly a good one.

      Another white cis male. A teen. A teen radicalized by hate.   No whole lotta media coverage either. Do not know how American media is wrapping this one up as the guy in the video says, a baby faced teen with mental health issues...but...   I know I went off bigly before, but there are SEVERAL themes I mentioned that NEED  to be addressed.  Violence begets violence.  Hate begets hate Violence and death is necessary when violence and death is staring you down. Dont mistake this for ANYTHING OTHER than violence and death...     Jon Stewart says violence should NEVER be tolerated. And he would be correct 100000%.  But he also says that is "their" problem.  NO!!!!  It is ALL of YOUS problem.  And the way Trump talks about MY country, Canada, it kinda looks like its MINE and my fellow Canadians' problem too, hence my violent rhetoric.    Violence (gun or otherwise) now has been accepted and romanticized by MANY Americans.   Lies have buried the truth and fascism has settled in. Peacefully because it is of the slowly boiling a frog scenario.  But hate and violence REVEALS itself every step of the way going forward. If you ignore it while waiting the courts to decide your fate, look again, the courts have been ignored by Trump. Some judges have been replaced with Trump sympathizers.  Dont think the US is becoming violent?   He says 1 death is too many. He asks how many deaths is too many? Violence should NEVER be tolerated after naming 50 school shootings the last 25 years but acknowledging there are plenty more to recognize going back further than 25 years...  He asks what the phoque are we (Americans) are doing?   THE PHOQUE ARE YOU PEOPLE DOING???!!!  And if THAT is the sentiment of the right wing morons that WANT war with the left, with Hyundai employees, with transgenders, with Canada and Canadians...then HOW THE PHOQUE ARE THE REST OF YOU GOING TO RESPOND???!!! Peacefully and with the courts???!!! Yeah...every act of war was NEVER won with give peace a chance, kumbaya sit downs.  Im afraid Yoko Ono/John Lennon Give Peace a Chance love songs are just a tad too late for peace to happen.  It kinda worked after the Viet Nam war for a while.  But American society let hate and violence creep into their world again...

      Blame a democrat?  They want to start a civil war with the left yet at the same time complain why there is no empathy for dear ole Charlie and at the same time say that empathy is a made up word with no meaning and empathy is not only a human weakness but empathy is also evil.  Therefore... Is it really horrible  when it comes to death, regardless of how that death was arranged, of misinforming, misleading, false narrative, hate filled  pricks that fuel hatred, bigotry, sexism, racism, homophobic rhetoric designed to divide? For me...it is not horrible when garbage is taken out.  It is necessary.   A society lets people and politicians like Trump and Charlie to spew lies and hatred and divisions happen within that society. Fascism creeps in and takes control.  The truth gets buried and never comes back.  Free speech for me but not for thee is standard practice.  Political violence is tolerated ONLY by those who want to take control.  And in this case, religion is used as a shield.  I find it repulsive when Christianity is used and abused the way it has been by America as a Greek Orthodox practitioner myself.  I also find it repulsive when right wing a55ho77e5 want to silence me by using my kindness, my religion against me as saying I am of the tolerant left and I should NOT revolt back because political violence is not a defining Christian trait and freedoms of this and freedoms of that.  Yet...the right wing BREAKS ALL OF THE RULES.  Hate speech begets hate. Charlie fueled hate. Charlie got hate back. By his own ilk un-ironically. Charlie tolerated violence. School shootings and public executions. Charlie got killed in a school setting by a very public setting. All that he tolerated and was killed by the very thing he preached and praised. By his own flock un-ironically.  And he did not get ANY empathy as even he admitted that empathy is INHUMANE and evil.  Well, colour me inhumane and evil, but I am only following his doctrine.  About religion and violence...Greece is thousands of years old. Greece has seen ALL kinds of political violence in its existence. The Hellenic peoples have seen it all throughout our history on this planet.  About political violence and Christianity being or not being involved. If any of you do not know what was the Ottoman empire, I suggest you read a history book.     As you could see, even if I am not American, (although Im very close in being one), I MOURN the state of the US possibly MORE than some of you that are phoquing afraid to fight for your rights and freedoms!!!    Take BACK your country!!!
