Perfect Position Seats (Reserve III and Black Label only)

I will be posting several How To videos produced by Lincoln describing several different features of the 2024 Nautilus. This one is just showing off all the pretty aspects of the new Nautilus. There is no information provided.

I just configured a Black Label Nautilus on the Lincoln website to confirm the features I ordered and noticed the delivery/destination charge has risen from US $1395 to US $1595. I believe this is only for new orders and not existing orders. Since my vehicle isn't built yet I'm hoping this is the case.

Just got word from my dealership my vehicle is scheduled to be built the week of 2/26. My order is now a priority code 1 so hopefully it gets moved up a bit.

I just spoke to my sales rep. My Nautilus is scheduled to be built the week of 2/26. I placed my order on 11/21 to the 5 - 6 months to delivery seems to be accurate.

IKR. My 2021 Corsair GT has an 11 gallon gas tank while the ICE version is 16. Unless I'm driving on a road trip I only fill my tank every 6 weeks to 2 months. Maybe that will be the case with the Nautilus too. I do find it odd that the city MPG is 30 while the highway MPG is 31. It's usually about 10% higher in the city than highway. There will be a lot to discover about the driving dynamics of this vehicle. My dealership has 63 Nautilus that are in transit. I'm definitely going to give one a test drive prior to mine arriving.

When I ordered my 2024 Nautilus my sales representative said it would take up to 6 months to receive the vehicle. This takes into account the 2 weeks of shipping from Shanghai, China to Portland, Oregon then by rail to central Ohio. Keep in mind the order bank opened in April 2023 so there are plenty of people ahead of us. I ordered mine in November.

According to the owners manual specifications the gas tanks for the ICE is 20.3 gallons and the FHEV is 20.1 gallons.

With a 20 gallon tank that gets you 600 miles of range. Not bad!

Attached are sample window stickers for both the ICE and FHEV versions of the 2024 Nautilus. These window stickers have been shared on this forum and others. windowsticker.pdf window-sticker non-hybrid.pdf

Here is the 2024 Corsair Dealer Order Guide. It hasn't been uploaded to the Dealer Order Guide tab. 2024 Corsair order guide.pdf

It is $2.72 per gallon for regular in central Ohio. It is predicted to go below $2.00 by Christmas. I use the Gas Buddy app which lops off 3 cents per gallon. I also have the Gas Buddy fuel card that is linked to my bank account. By using it I can get up to 25 cents per gallon off the posted price. I can also use a stations customer loyalty card to use accumulated discounts from them.

According to the dealer order guide, the printed owners manual will no longer be provided with your vehicle. It is available digitally through the Lincoln website, the Lincoln Way app or the vehicle touch screen. https://www.lincoln.com/support/vehicle/nautilus/2024/owner-manuals/ You can order the owners manual from Helm: You can order Owner's Manuals from 1940 to the present through Helm. The cost is US $35. It is currently listed out of stock but you can sign up for email notifications when it becomes available. http://www.helminc.com/ You can call Helm at: 1-800-782-4356. I have attached the currently owners manual and warranty information below. 2024_Lincoln_Nautilus_Owners_Manual_version_1.2_EN-US.pdf US_Lincoln_Car_LTtruck_Warranty_Guide_v2_9.7.23.pdf

When will the 2024 Corsair dealer order guide be uploaded?

Someone in the 2024 Lincoln Nautilus Facebook page posted a copy of a window sticker of a vehicle that is in transit to their dealership. It was the standard 2.0 L I4 engine. I posed the question if he had seen one for the FHEV but haven't received a response yet. window-sticker.pdf

My understanding is there is a larger electric motor in the North American model, 100 KW vs. 80 KW. This would explain the difference. I think this was done due to the 2.7L engine being dropped. I've also seen in some YouTube videos the Chinese version door handles are much lower on the door and mimic Tesla door handles. They are flush to the body until you wave your hand across. The door handle extends outward.

I placed an order for a FHEV White Platinum Black Label Nautilus on 11/21. Within an hour I received a confirmation email from Lincoln. Now, the wait begins.

From what I can tell, Lincoln is sending out prototype vehicles to dealers all over the country for 1 day previews. They are in various trim levels from the Premier like I saw up to the Black Label. I can say, if I were forced to buy the Premier II I wouldn't be unhappy. It is a very nice vehicle.

Here is my review of the 2024 Nautilus after seeing it at my dealership. We could sit in it but not start it or drive it.

Thank you for the clarification. I knew they couldn't be sold but I also thought they couldn't be brought into the country without those items. I learned something new.

I was able to go to my dealership today and see a 2024 Lincoln Nautilus in the Premier II trim and hybrid engine. Even this base model was quite impressive. The EPA hasn't published ratings on their website yet but are expected to do so in January 2024. With a 20 gallon fuel tank that would give a considerable amount of range. The front display is mesmerizing. The right half of the display is customizable with 5 different views, 3 of which can be displayed at any one time. The center touch screen is a nice size and very responsive. According to the Lincoln representative, the operating system for this model has switched from SYNC to Google for the operating system. The response time was much quicker than SYNC on both booting up and changing screens and settings. The front vents can only be adjusted using the touch screen. You can manually move them around on the 11.1" touch screen or choose presets to close, move toward the body, move away from the body or to oscillate. The vents in the rear seats are manually adjustable. The rear seat space was more than ample. In my photos the front seats are pushed back as far as they can go. My test subject in the photo is 5'11" so you can see how much leg room there is. There are 2 USB-C ports each on the back of the driver and passenger seats. There is a 110V outlet at the bottom of the rear console. The arm rest in the center of the rear seats opens up for a small storage space that would probably only hold a cell phone. There is a flip out cup holder in the arm rest too. The front console isn't huge but would suffice. It has 2 USB-C ports and a power point inside it. Just forward of the console is a tamboured door that covers 2 cup holds, a USB-A and a USB-C port and the excellently positioned wireless phone charger at the front. There is a large crystal dial that is the volume control. There are hard buttons surrounding the dial for auto hold, hazard lights, drive modes, etc. The squarish steering wheel made it easy to view the massive front display. There is no HUD available but I honestly don't think it would add anything. There was plenty of room between the bottom of the steering wheel and my legs even with the seat position at its highest level. The base Premier has the Lincoln Premium Stereo with 10 speakers. Moving up the Premier II gets the Revel 14 speaker sound system, Lincoln BlueCruise 1.2 for 4 years, Digital Scent, Panoramic Vista Roof, the 110V outlet, heated second row seats and hands free liftgate. At Reserve I you get the adaptive suspension. Reserve III and Black Label you get the Revel Ultima 28 speaker sound system and 24 way perfect position massaging sears. I'm very impressed and will be ordering one in the near future. My salesman said the transit time once shipped to central Ohio would be around 70 days.

There are a couple of things going on. Oakville is winding down production of the 2023 Nautilus and will build it out by the end of December. China began building the 2024 Nautilus in mid-September. As of this morning, the EPA still hasn't issued MPG ratings for the 2024 Nautilus. Likewise, NHTSA and IIHS have not issued crash test ratings. Until these two key pieces of data are available, there will be no window stickers for the vehicles and this would keep them from clearing customs. Since the plant in China is near their east coast, vehicles will go via cargo ship to the US and Canada on our west coasts. Once in North America, the vehicles will have to ship via rail and finally by convoy to the dealerships. I would anticipate the shipping to take several months dependent upon your location. Everything I have read said they will be available in the first quarter of 2024.

I currently drive a Corsair Grand Touring. It has the eCVT in it. I'm quite impressed with everything about it. This is technology Ford licensed from Toyota. I would expect they would continue to use this until Ford can develop something in house.

According to Automotive News Future Product Pipeline, the ICE version of Escape production will end in 2025 and be replaced by a similar size EV. Corsair ICE production will also end around the same time. The Future Product Pipeline shows a Lincoln C-segment EV code CX802 being produced at Oakville. This information may not be entirely accurate since the new UAW contract appears to be well on its way to ratification. It would make sense the Lincoln EV would be produced at Louisville along with the Ford sibling.

I'd schedule a visit to the dealership and take a service tech on a drive so they can hear it isn't functioning. Otherwise, you could get the dreaded "couldn't duplicate". This is a federally mandated safety feature so they will jump on it.
