In the past year, we\u2019ve seen a lot of good vehicles die as manufacturers pivot around tariffs and changing consumer demands. But one of those vehicles, the Lincoln Corsair,<\/a> didn\u2019t stay dead for long.<\/p>\n

The small luxury SUV is making a comeback for the 2027 model year. That model will feature some upgrades to its standard model and, like the Lincoln Nautilus<\/a>, it will be made in China. Which means it\u2019s going to get hit by tariffs while making its way into the country. As a result, the MSRP has shot up pretty significantly. The base model will cost over $7,000 more than the 2026 equivalent, and the \u201cReserve\u201d trim costs $6655 more than its 2026 version. However, you are getting a little more for your money,<\/p>\n

The Corsair is hybrid-only now<\/h2>\n

While previous versions of the Corsair were cheaper, the lower-cost versions used ICE powertrains. The 2027 version of the Lincoln Corsair is hybrid-only and packing a 305-horsepower 2.0-liter turbocharged high-output hybrid engine.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s worth pointing out that, while the entry-level pricing has shot up, the two 2027 trims that have been unveiled are cheaper than the only 2026 Corsair Hybrid. Which was the \u201cGrand Touring\u201d version and started at close to $56,000.<\/p>\n

All-wheel-drive now comes as standard on the Corsair too, further elevating those base trims compared to previous versions. Other things included in the base version are BlueCruise 1.5,<\/a> and four years of the Lincoln Security package (which includes navigation, voice assistant, video streaming, and unlimited in-vehicle WiFi).<\/p>\n

On the more expensive \u201cReserve\u201d trim, you get 24-position front seats with heating, ventilation, and Lincoln\u2019s frankly excellent Active Motion massage system.<\/p>\n

So while you are paying close to 20% more for the cheapest Lincoln Corsair, you\u2019re getting a lot more for it. More trims may be introduced down the line, but it\u2019s likely Lincoln will increase the number of \u201cluxury\u201d options rather than bringing back a cheaper ICE-only model.<\/p>\n

There are some cosmetic tweaks on the 2027 Lincoln Corsair<\/h2>\n

The changes to the 2027 Lincoln Corsair haven\u2019t just happened under the hood. The vehicle has received an arguably overdue overhaul to its appearance too. Lincoln has reworked the Corsair\u2019s hood and front fascia, with new headlights that extend back into a redesigned grille and a more sculpted hood overall. The rear has also received a redesign, with updated tail lights that feature integrated lettering.<\/p>\n

Lincoln has pulled five new colors from Ford\u2019s vault for its 2027 model year, with customers able to choose from \u201cNocturnal Blue, Tinted Copper, Chroma Flame Red, Manhattan Green, and White Platinum.\u201d Wheels come in 18, 19, and 20-inch variants, and three new wheel designs have been added to the portfolio. Buyers can also opt for the \u201cJet Appearance Package\u201d again, which blacks out various chrome trim elements around the vehicle.<\/p>\n

Inside, the cabin has a new one-piece seat designed to be softer than its predecessor. You can opt for a \u201cStellar Sun\u201d interior theme too which features bright orange leather from the looks of things. Black Satin Ash wood applique clads parts of the interior if you opt for the Reserve trim.<\/p>\n

Lincoln says orders for the 2027 Corsair have opened, and deliveries are due to begin in early 2027.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
