New Lincoln Nautilus | Engine Specs & Towing Capacity

To start with what’s under the hood, the 2023 Lincoln Nautilus offers two different engine options. The base model comes with a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine that's capable of a horsepower of 250 and a torque of 280 lb-ft. Alternatively, you can opt for the 2.7-liter V-6 turbocharged engine, which sports a horsepower of 335 and a torque of 380 lb-ft. The Nautilus can tow up to 2000 pounds when equipped with the standard engine, but it increases up to 3500 pounds with the bigger engine.

With a considerable towing capacity, the 2023 Lincoln Nautilus can handle a variety of towing tasks with ease. If equipped with the standard engine, you can comfortably tow smaller trailers, jet skis, or even a compact camper. When upgraded to the 2.7-liter V-6 engine, the Nautilus's towing capacity increases significantly, allowing you to handle heavier loads. This makes it ideal for towing larger recreational vehicles, boats, or horse trailers. Always remember to check the weight of your load to ensure it's within the vehicle's towing capacity for safe and efficient towing.

New Lincoln Nautilus | Fuel Economy

Next on the list of new features is fuel economy. Lincoln tops the charts with the Nautilus, offering an EPA-rated fuel economy of 21/26 mpg city/highway with the base engine. These numbers are sure to make a statement for those looking for a balance between size, power, and fuel efficiency.

New Lincoln Nautilus | Interior Features

Interior wise, the Lincoln Nautilus offers a comfortable and spacious cabin that can accommodate a comfortable ride for up to five passengers. The Black Label interior builds on the Reserve and features Venetian leather and higher grade materials to elevate the riding experience. This luxury SUV provides ample storage and cargo capacity ranging from 37.2 cubic feet with the rear seats up and 68.8 cubic feet with the seats folded down.

For on-board tech, Lincoln Nautilus has got you covered, starting with the massive 13.2-inch touchscreen infotainment system that's standard on Tickford branded vehicles. This touchscreen, placed horizontally, connects with the Nautilus' advanced vehicle dynamics system, enabling personalized fuel efficiency, performance, and safety settings based on the owner's preferences.

New Lincoln Nautilus | Trims Available

The 2023 Lincoln Nautilus is available in three basic trims - Standard, Reserve, and Black Label. Each of the trims comes with its own unique set of interior and exterior features which offer drivers pleasing different levels of luxury. The Black Label edition features handpicked wood trims and Venetian leather seats that give the interior a lovely look.

New Lincoln Nautilus | Safety Features

Moving onto the safety features, the Nautilus offers standard safety features like automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning, lane-keeping assist, blind-spot detection, and rear cross-traffic alert, with more upgrades available if desired.

The rear cross-traffic alert is a safety feature that operates when the vehicle is in reverse. It uses sensors to monitor for vehicles approaching from the left or right rear, which may be outside of the driver's field of vision. When an approaching vehicle is detected, it provides visual and auditory alerts to help prevent collisions while backing out of parking spaces or driveways. This advanced driver assistance system is particularly useful in busy parking lots and when visibility is limited.

In addition to the standard safety features, the 2023 Lincoln Nautilus offers a number of premium add-ons that can further enhance vehicle safety. The Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with stop-and-go and lane centering provides a stress-free driving experience on highways. The ACC system uses radar and camera technology to adjust your speed based on the car ahead, allowing you to maintain a safe distance without constant braking and accelerating.

The Enhanced Active Park Assist is another impressive feature that helps with parallel and perpendicular parking. It uses ultrasonic sensors to locate an available parking space and automatically steers the vehicle into the space. You only need to operate the accelerator and brake pedals while the system takes care of the steering.

Furthermore, the Nautilus is available with a 360-degree camera which provides a bird's-eye view of the vehicle, assisting in tight parking situations and avoiding unseen obstacles. For nighttime safety, the SUV can be equipped with the Auto High-Beam Headlamps. This system automatically switches between high and low beams as it detects incoming traffic, ensuring optimal illumination in different driving conditions. 

Lastly, the Driver Alert System observes the vehicle's movement compared to the lane markings and provides alerts to the driver if it detects signs of fatigue or distracted driving. These additional safety features make the 2023 Lincoln Nautilus one of the most secure vehicles in its category, providing drivers with peace of mind on every journey.
