Lincoln Corsair Overview

We're obviously big fans of the Lincoln Corsair. Before we compare it with the popular Acura RDX, we'll go over some of the best features that we love.

Sequential Lighting

The Lincoln branding has been all about modern luxury. The sequential lighting and signature Lincoln welcome light welcomes you whenever you get into your Corsair, inviting you in for a drive.

Redesigned Exterior

The new Lincoln exterior designs are sleek and agile, cutting through wind resistance and making a bold statement along the way.

Luxurious Interior

Inside the Lincoln Corsair, you'll be greeted with leather upholstery, high-gloss black trim, and an 8" infotainment Lincoln SYNC 3 central touchscreen commanding the center console.

Creature Comforts

The dual-zone climate control allows the driver and passenger to customize their experience and comfort at the touch of a button. Speaking of comfort, the 10-way multi-adjustable seats are supportive and comfortable even during the longest road trips.

Plenty of Space

Take advantage of the split-folding rear seats. When folded down with ease, you have access to 58 cubic feet of cargo space.

Engine Options

We love the ability to choose your drivetrain with two engine options. The standard engine is a 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder, making 250 horsepower with 280 lb.-ft of torque, averaging 22 mpg city and 29 highway. You can upgrade to the 2.3L turbocharged inline-four that ups the horsepower to 295 and torque to 310 lb.-ft. This engine nets an average of 21 mpg city and 27 highway. Both engines are paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission and the choice of front- or all-wheel drive. The larger engine comes standard with all-wheel drive.

Co-Pilot360

The Lincoln Co-Pilot360 1.5 Package allows you to transform the way you drive and experience your SUV. There are standard driver-assist features like emergency braking but with a plethora of luxury upgrades, such as:
  • 360-Degree Camera
  • Active Park Assist 2.0
  • Evasive Steering Assist
  • Reverse Brake Assist
  • Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop-and-Go and Lane Centering
  • Speed Sign Recognition

Lincoln Corsair vs. Acura RDX

Engine Options

The Acura RDX only offers one engine - a 274 horsepower turbocharged inline-four, making 280 lb.-ft of torque and up to 22 mph city and 28 mpg highway. Meanwhile, the Lincoln Corsair has two turbocharged engine options, depending on your needs.

Infotainment

The RDX comes standard with a 10.2" infotainment screen but uses a touchpad interface at the bottom of the center console instead of an intuitive touchscreen. The Lincoln Corsair has an 8.0" standard infotainment screen with Lincoln Sync3 running on it. You have the available option to upgrade to the 12.3" screen to truly command your drive. The Corsair also comes with an available 14-speaker Revel audio system with SiriusXM satellite radio, real-time traffic and weather updates, and Apple CarPlay/Android Auto.

Driver Assists

The Acura RDX offers many driver safety features and assists, such as adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning, and more. However, these features exist on nearly every modern vehicle. Meanwhile, the Lincoln Corsair includes the Lincoln Co-Pilot360, providing additional driver safety features and assist, such as rear parking sensors, post-collision braking, lane-keep assist, pedestrian detection, speed sign recognition, and more.
