The 2020 Lincoln Nautilus looks great and offers impressive standard features, but doesn’t quite live up to the luxurious standards of its rivals.

Pros
Handsome exterior design
Active safety tech standard
Turbocharged engines
Strong twin-turbo V-6 option

Cons
Lackluster interior
Can’t escape humble Ford roots
Competitors are more luxurious
Hardly dynamically engaging

The value-oriented Select model has been deleted from the lineup for 2020, which now includes just three trims: Standard, Reserve, and Black Label. The mid-range Reserve and top-spec Black Label both come with a power liftgate as standard. In addition, the Reserve can now be had with the Lincoln Co-Pilot Plus package, which adds adaptive cruise control with lane centering, a 360-degree exterior camera system, evasive steering assist, and a self-parking feature.

Pros
Cushy ride, refined powertrains, spacious and well-equipped interior.

Cons
High-end models cost a pretty penny, dinky 8.0-inch infotainment screen, probably too cushy.
