The 2025 Lincoln Nautilus is set to arrive this fall with a starting price of $53,000, Lincoln announced. This marks a $990 increase over the redesigned 2024 Nautilus, which was available for a brief model year this spring. Aside from a new color, the only notable change is that the brand's BlueCruise hands-free driving system is now standard for four years.
This five-seat crossover offers interior space comparable to most midsize SUVs and continues to offer two robust powertrain options: either a 2.0-liter turbo-4 producing 250 hp and 280 lb-ft of torque, or a 310-hp hybrid system with a larger turbocharger that boosts fuel economy from 24 mpg to 30 mpg combined. Last year's Nautilus hybrid was priced $1,500 higher, but Lincoln has not specified if this surcharge will carry over to 2025.
The Nautilus competes with the Volvo XC60 that offers a plug-in hybrid option, Genesis GV70, BMW X3, and Audi Q5.
Every Nautilus comes equipped with automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, active lane control, blind-spot monitors, parking sensors, and a surround-view camera system. Lincoln covers the Nautilus with a 4-year/50,000-mile basic warranty and lifetime roadside assistance. Hybrid components are backed for eight years or 100,000 miles.
The digital marvel also carries over as standard. It features a 48.0-inch display screen that curves at the base of the windshield, effectively replacing an instrument cluster and head-up display. The base Premiere also includes an 11.1-inch touchscreen with wireless smartphone pairing, and standard conveniences such as heated and cooled power front seats, ambient lighting, driver seat memory, a heated power-adjustable steering wheel, and a power tailgate.
The 2025 Nautilus Reserve is priced at $62,120 and adds leather upholstery. The Lincoln Rejuvenate sensory chill system is part of the $10,000 Reserve option package.
The Black Label tops the Nautilus lineup at $76,060, featuring massaging seats, 22-inch wheels, an impressive Revel 28-speaker audio system, heated rear seats, a panoramic sunroof, and adaptive dampers.
Made in China, the 2025 Nautilus is expected to arrive in the fourth quarter of this year.
