Lincoln has a tech-filled luxury hybrid that challenges the midsize luxury crossover leader.
The Nautilus hybrid is a smooth and efficient companionLuxury crossover SUV buyers coming out of a decade-old Lexus RX should turn their attention to Lincoln. My mom is and you might want to as well.
My mother, who has a 2013 Lexus RX, feels like Lexus has lost its way both in terms of design and refinement. She’s rarely wrong.. Redesigned with an understated yet elegant design, a fuel-efficient hybrid powertrain and easy-to-use controls have put it on my mother's shortlist as a possible RX replacement.
But there’s disappointment with the BlueCruise hands-free system, the tech is glitchy, and the steering controls are borderline intolerable despite being set up for the future.For a minute my mother was hot to trot on the idea of the Cadillac Lyriq. Going electric appeals to her mentality of “Let’s save the planet for my grandchildren.” Your grandchildren thank you, Mother. Charging infrastructure aside, the Lyriq’s simply “too loud” visually, according to my mom.
for the audio and cruise control functions. Worse, those touch-sensitive controls aren’t labeled and can change functions based on situations. When the driver’s fingers touch the buttons on the steering wheel the corresponding functions present themselves on the 48.0-inch screen on the dashboard. This is only one step better than the similar setup in the Lexus RX, which has the functions displayed in the heads-up display, which can’t be seen while wearing polarized sunglasses.
Lincoln took the Nautilus and transformed it into a formative competitor to what has long been regarded as the segment benchmark: the Lexus RX. With Lexus’ missteps in design it would be a mistake for consumers to ignore their Lincoln dealership. My Mother rarely makes mistakes and will be taking a Nautilus for a test drive.
