akirby Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 Exterior changes are minor but a slight improvement. That blue color is stunning. That is definitely not sync 4. Must be the new Google system. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good catch akirby, the Lincoln press release says "Two new exterior colors are also available – Crystal Red and, new to Lincoln, Whisper Blue". That supports what you mentioned about the relation between the Area 51 exterior color on Ford Maverick and Bronco Sport and Whisper Blue on 2023 Lincoln Corsair.

T-dubz Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 (edited) Looks really good. The new grille gives it more presence. Interior looks nice too. My only gripe is the loss of physical buttons for AC and radio, but if both of those can be controlled by the steering wheel, it’s no big deal (hopefully that’s the case) Edited September 12, 2022 by T-dubz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pffan1990 Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 This is a very good update. Makes it look much better than now. I love the red interior look! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is Sync 4, just a different version I guess. https://media.lincoln.com/content/lincolnmedia/lna/us/en/news/2022/09/12/2023-lincoln-corsair-reveal.html European Ford Focus has the same screen size and Sync layout.

akirby Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 I see what they did - they moved the climate controls from the console to the bottom of the screen. They’re permanent. I wonder how you navigate without the function buttons on the bottom of the screen (audio, nav, etc). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ice-capades Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 (edited) 2023 Lincoln Corsair Pricing Increased Across The Board https://fordauthority.com/2022/09/2023-lincoln-corsair-pricing-increased-across-the-board/ The refreshed 2023 Lincoln Corsair was just revealed this morning, breathing new life into the luxurious compact crossover after it received a redesign for the 2020 model year. With updated styling inside and out, along with a host of new technology features, it was pretty much expected that the 2023 Lincoln Corsair would cost more than the outgoing model, particularly amid numerous price increases incurred by other 2023 model year vehicles – and that’s precisely the case here, too.

tbone Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 Very nice update. My mother is ready for a new vehicle in this size category, and I’m going to strongly encourage her to go this route from her current Cadillac. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The interior is the same but with more hard buttons and more room. But no PHEV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Mother is not what I would consider to be technologically savvy, however everything about her XT5 interface seems to be overly complicated and somehow she seems to manage that well, lol. So what I’m saying is she could probably handle the newer interface, but for some reason she can’t seem to figure out her dang iPhone??♂️ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew L Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 From Autoblog: " Trim and colors get a step up for 2023, as the dash trim can now be had with a backlit applique that features a perforated star pattern — it’s meant to look like a constellation on your dash." You can see this here: I do like this it's a nice touch. Still sad to see the 2.3T go though. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, in true FoMoCo fashion, maybe they'll streamline Nautilus by dropping the 2.0 and 2.7 EB and make the 2.3L EB the only engine option.

They are going to streamline the lineup by dropping the Nautilus all together. Lincoln isn’t allowed to have more than 3 decent vehicles in the lineup at anytime or it might actually succeed in the market.

slemke Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 14 hours ago, silvrsvt said: Not a bad update-the grill screams Audi to me though Better than Lexus. The Audi Q5 is one of the leaders in the segment, so why not go with similar styling. It looks really good. The hands free driving option is claimed to be a segment first. Hopefully the updated exterior, interior, and technology are enough to keep it selling. The powertrains are carryover minus the 2.3. The base 250hp 2L ecoboost lines up well, but the 266hp PHEV is far short of the 362hp Audi. Use the rear motor from the Mach E rated for however much power can be extracted from the battery pack. Be one way to give it a rear wheel drive feel…at least for the 30 miles the battery pack is rated for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blwnsmoke Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 (edited) One would think this should be in the Lincoln forum. Regardless, I just went to the Build and Price to build one.. Can't get the Blue with the Red interior. Every other color.. sure but Blue, nope. Ughh!!! $65,000 fully loaded.. Wow for a Corsair.

You would be correct but it seems like we get more eyes on this board then the Lincoln one, so thus why it was posted here 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
