Lincoln Korea has officially launched the all-new Lincoln Nautilus, the representative mid-size SUV.
The all-new Lincoln Nautilus is a completely transformed model that marks its debut in Korea after four years since its first release in 2019. The model name Nautilus is derived from the Latin word meaning ‘exploration’, reflecting Lincoln’s brand strategy and direction. With this all-new Lincoln Nautilus, Lincoln aims to redefine the concept of a sanctuary and provide customers with a new dimension of digital experience.
The all-new Lincoln Nautilus has evolved the brand’s core concept of ‘quiet flight’ into a more dynamic digital space.
The signature horizontal design elements are applied, with new lamps installed in both the headlights and taillights, completing Lincoln’s characteristic elegant and dynamic exterior along with modern Lincoln lettering on the rear of the vehicle.
Inside the vehicle, a crystal audio knob, piano key shifter, and ambient light inspired by sunlight reflected off water showcase the essence of elegant Lincoln design.
A key change and core feature of the Nautilus in this all-new model is a horizontal large display that spans across both sides of the vehicle, delivering a new visual experience to the driver as soon as the engine starts. The large display, combined with a flat-topped steering wheel, helps ensure the driver’s visibility, providing a safer and more comfortable driving experience.
The all-new Lincoln Nautilus offers a variety of sensory satisfaction through diverse features built on Lincoln’s latest technology.
The centrally located 11.1-inch center stack touchscreen has expanded to a horizontal large display to assist the driver’s comfortable operation. The 48-inch large panoramic screen is designed to allow the driver to easily access a variety of information while driving and can be personalized according to the user’s preferences.
Lincoln’s proposed Lincoln Rejuvenate allows the adjustment of not only screen visuals but also seat positions and massage options to suit personal preferences, enabling the driver to transform the vehicle into a personal space for relaxation and rejuvenation.
The ‘digital scent’ that completes Lincoln Rejuvenate offers a choice from three fragrances: the rich woody scent of Mystic Forest, the fragrant patchouli coupled with the fresh harmony of Violet in Ozonic Azure, and the refreshing and exotic Violet Cashmere, all selectable from the center stack.
The all-new Lincoln Nautilus is equipped with the Level Ultima 3D audio system, one of the most beloved features among Lincoln customers, providing an immersive audio experience with rich textures.
The all-new Lincoln Nautilus is powered by a 2.0L GTDi engine that delivers a maximum of 252 horsepower and 38 kg∙m of torque, paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. The newly improved twin-turbo engine enables more efficient and stable driving.
Moreover, the all-new Lincoln Nautilus features adaptive suspension with 12 sensors that continuously monitor vehicle motion, steering, acceleration, and braking. It also offers five driving modes: Normal, Conserve, Excite, Slippery, and Deep Condition.
Features enhancing passenger and driver safety and convenience have also been strengthened. The all-new Lincoln Nautilus is equipped with Lincoln Co-Pilot 360, which includes a collision avoidance assistance system with emergency braking, adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go, lane centering assist, and lane-keeping assistance to enhance driving safety.
The venue showcasing this all-new Nautilus, called ‘The Space Nautilus’, is structured to match the concept of tranquility and relaxation that the Lincoln brand aims for, and to deepen the sense of immersion and perception within that space.
Comprising three floors, The Space Nautilus features a first floor for presentations introducing the all-new Lincoln Nautilus, while the second floor is a space themed around Lincoln’s brand message for a more sensory experience of the Nautilus.
The third floor implementing Lincoln Rejuvenate is an area designed to awaken the senses of passengers through sight, hearing, touch, and smell and is prepared to allow a true sense of tranquility, which Lincoln strives for, through experiences satisfying various senses.
David Jeffrey, CEO of Lincoln Korea, expressed gratitude for the continuous interest shown in the all-new Lincoln Nautilus since its global launch earlier this year, stating, “I am confident that the all-new Lincoln Nautilus will deliver the true value of ‘ultimate comfort’ that Lincoln stands for to our customers.”
The price of the all-new Lincoln Nautilus is 77,400,000 won (including VAT, applying 5.0% individual consumption tax).
