2020 Lincoln Corsair Consumer Reviews

Wife's car. Drives very smooth and quiet Handling is good, 0-60 not bad but not like my 3.5 ecoboost. Love the asher gray, not fond of the black interior. Screen is very clear and useful, memory seats are awesome. Wife loves the 87 fuel vs premium, I expect it would be quicker premium. Overall a nice car, much better than her Infiniti.

I actually bought 2 Lincolns in 2023. One was a Corsair and the other was an Aviator. Both were Reserve 1 trim levels. I hadn't bought recent Lincolns but was familiar with the old school Lincoln Town Cars and Continentals. I was sick of the high frequency and cost of repairs on the imports brands that have become a fad over the past 20 years or so. I also just don't like the way the european, so called, luxury, cars ride and drive. they are hard riding and more what i would call sports cars. I want comfort and luxury and a car that doesn't need to be coddled and brought in for costly repairs and maintenance all the time. Hence, the return to the Lincoln brand. At first I was concerned with some reviewers who seemed have electronic issues with their vehicles. The complaints seemed to be with the higher packaged models with excessive gadgetry. So I bought the more basic option packages to avoid potential glitches. This approach has largely worked out. But not entirely. small annoyances i have experienced have pertained to learning and using the infotainment stuff. For example, the Corsair's sync 4 takes automatic software updates that cause things to have tiny glitches that are usually corrected by subsequent software updates. these happen at night when the car is parked. A few examples are, for a few days, after an update, infotainment screen would present some of the a/c controls in japanese for a few seconds before switching back to English. this seems to have been corrected by a software update a week or two later. that same software update cleared all my preset radio stations on the stereo. I had to reset those. I like the Sync 3 on the Aviator much better than the newer Sync 4 that is in the Corsair as not only does it not do the auto software updates, but the a/c controls still had the physical knob for fan speed and toggle for temperature. In the sync 4 equipped Corsair, they took the a/c controls and put it in the touch screen. I hate that!!! You basically cannot adjust the a/c/heater unless your stopped at a stop light or still in your driveway. with the sync 4 in Corsairs from 23 and up, you have to operate the hvac through the touchscreen only. It stinks. With the Corsair, one way to mitigate the software updates from annoying you is to go into settings and shut off the auto updates which i finally did. I waited till the car was such that it was working the way I wanted and then shut off the auto updates to prevent irritants arising from a future update. Driving wise, it all depends on what your comparing it to. folks coming from a european import will say the ride is luxurious. To me, its okay and similar to a 2009 Ford Taurus X, I had. But its definitely not as luxurious as a Town Car which were downright opulent by comparison. that same comparison could be said for the Aviator as well. That car does, however seem more luxurious and upscale than the Corsair. the leather upholstery seems better in the Aviator than the Corsair and small details make the Aviator seem more upscale. Its not just that Aviator is bigger. To me, the Corsair is a bit more "Ford like" than the Aviator by the way it drives and feels. Its not bad. but its not sumptuous like the Lincolns of the old days. the interior of the Corsair is surprisingly roomy for its size. I am 6 ft tall and easily can fit in the back seat. Even the headroom is generous in the back for me. but i deleted the panoramic sunroof which i would never use and that sunroof probably cuts head space on cars equipped with that. the pickup and performance is more than adequate and, is again, more like the Taurus X, which isn't bad as the Taurus X had a V6 and the Corsair has a smaller 2 liter 4 cylinder, but with the turbo. It averages 24mpg on mixed driving. The Taurus X and Aviator both average about 21mpg on similar type driving. The Aviator does have ridiculous power to the point that if I had teenagers, I would not let them near it. For me i find it unnecessary and excessive. the Corsair has ample power and then some. but its will not take off like a rocket as is the case with the Aviator. In short, for the Corsair, I wished it had a softer more luxurious ride, like old school Lincolns. People coming from imports will judge it better on that score than me. Otherwise the quality seems good. I would give it a 4 out of 5 for that. Lincoln concierge is helpful. but they have limits to what they can do. if you have an issue with a dealer, they can attempt to help you. But they don't have the power to force the dealer to do something. so they basically are like apple care where they can walk you through things on your car or get you roadside assistance, etc. Oh one bad thing that is small but very annoying, is you only are provided with a digital owners manual which can be read from the car's infotainment screen. they make a hard copy. but they charge $70 for the manual!! You pay all this money for their fancy brand of car and they nickel and dime you on the owners manual. I told the concierge, let's say the problem with the car was such that it was dead and the infotainment screen didn't work, how would the owner access the manual? this is akin to a friend of mine who bought an Acura where the car does not come with spare tire. he has had to have his car towed a couple times already when he had a flat and no spare. so I guess thats even worse than no manual with the corsair. but its petty that they don't supply it. they just give you a "cliff notes" version of the manual which is insufficient.

Purchased this '24 Corsair in July '24. Current mileage 6000. Shortly after purchasing began to have problems with the electronics. Cruise control and all sensors would stop working and dealer not able to fix the problems. In March '25 repair advisory indicated a permanent fix would be issued by end of April. Fix didn't work out and additional advisory indicated for July. Lincoln customer service is a joke as they're no help at all. BEWARE OF LINCOLN. No support if you have issues.

We were so happy to buy a new beautiful red 2022 Corsair in November 2022. The car rides very smooth. Unfortunately, it had many issues - and none of the issues could be resolved by the dealer. Lincoln Consierge Service is a joke, don't buy into that hype - it's nothing. I found that Lincoln Consierge could not help me, the dealer couldn't help me, I got to know the roadside assistant guy that would come to start my car - he knew me by name and we became friends, his name is Kevin. I shouldn't have to know the third-party vendor they use for roadside assistance. I called one last time for help, Consierge wouldn't step up their game and help, and so I traded it in. These have huge depreciation. There's tons of unsold 2024's still on the lots in May of 2025, plus the 2025's are stacked up too. Do not buy one.

I've admired the Corsair for awhile now and was hooked by the 2023 model in Infinite Black with the "eternal red" interior. It's super elegant looking...a nicely understated red. Reminded me of the lux sedans of the 80's with red "corinthian leather" (the other guys, I know). Got a great deal on a leftover 2023 'program' car with the collection 2 option package, non-hybrid model. It doesn't leave you wanting for much, (aside from a cargo cover, perhaps). Only in week 2 of ownership, but I'm really impressed with it...ride, quietness, acceleration. So many features. Takes a bit to learn, but once you master the input screens along w/the steering wheel based controls, you are good to go! It definitely conveys luxury and comfort...a handsome vehicle.

I bought a 2023 Reserve AWD loaded model (Collection III). Wow, Lincoln is building remarkable SUVs that seem to be under the radar, probably because the luxury crossover market includes several compelling options. The bottom line is that the Corsair can hold its own against all competitors. Test drive a higher end trim and see what I mean. The KBB review nails the vehicle dynamics -- not a sportster but ample acceleration and actually enjoyable to drive. The engine and 8 speed auto seem to work together seamlessly. The large touchscreen introduced for 2023 is impressive and the Revel sound system is fantastic. In addition, the Corsair looks amazing inside and outside. An outstanding American competitor that is backed by an excellent warranty. Plus, Lincoln is offering very good incentives on the 2023 models left on dealer lots.

I LOVE my Lincoln Corsair Grand Touring (hybrid). I got 41 mpg and I only charged it at night at home. When I traveled, or went to work an hour away, I never charged it. I had it for 8 months and then someone T boned me and totaled my car. The 911 people at the scene were so impressed with how well the corsair protected me. They see all kinds of cars and accident scenes, but 3 of the 9 emergency personnel came over to talk to me about my car. All air bags went off. I am getting another corsair just like my last one. So comfortable, sporty, great safety features, and my passengers love the Massagers in the front seats.

This vehicle has been nothing but a headache for me since the day I purchased it. There are problem after problem causing the vehicle to be in the repair shop just about every month. The car has many problems with the electrical and electronic system. If you want to drive a lemon, purchase this one and you will see. Don't waste your money on this SUV. I think a Hyundia will be a much better buy.
