The Ford Authority Take
Lincoln Corsair sales saw a not-insignificant increase during Q3 2023, as the automaker has seemingly recovered from the production stoppage for the refreshed crossover, which was the result of software issues with their digital instrument clusters that prevented them from being shipped to dealers.
Assuming that supply is able to keep pace with demand, we expect that the refreshed 2023 Lincoln Corsair will continue to drive interest in the luxury crossover later on in the calendar year. The new model features a number of attractive changes, including revised exterior styling, a redesigned interior, standard Sync 4 infotainment.
