The Ford Authority Take
For more than a year now, Lincoln Nautilus sales have been in the green, posting robust numbers to move up to fifth place this time around. It even outsold its crosstown rival, the Cadillac XT5, by 3K units during Q1 2024.
The recent arrival of the next-generation 2024 Lincoln Nautilus can only help sales of the luxury crossover as it goes against tough competition.

The next-gen Nautilus features a huge, cabin-spanning, highly-customizable 48-inch display to make the most of Ford’s next-generation infotainment system; the addition of Lincoln Rejuvenate to “specially curate sensory experiences tied to lighting, screen visuals, and personal preferences such as seating position and massage options,” according to the brand; and a first-ever hybrid variant.

Comments
People voting for Marxists, and purchasing vehicles made in China. You get what you ask for.
You sound medicated.
I was seriously considering buying one until I saw it was built in China. Here I come BMW built in South Carolina.
Officially arrived in March, eh? Still waiting for my 2024 Nautilus and here it is June. We are not used to playing the waiting game. The good news is we don’t have to pay for it until it arrives. Tick Tock.
They Hybrid had a recall and stop-sale for fuel injectors breaking off and trashing the engine.
No it did not! No evidence of a recall on the Hybrid
You could at least Post a picture of the new ,Odell, not the old one.
I like the new model , but won’t buy it because it’s built in China . If Ford
Wants to grow the small sales numbers of Lincoln, they need to build a new Lincoln plant , plus add a few more models, a coupe, a convertible and some cool unique vehicle, plus some cars . All they have is 3 boxy SUVs that all look alike and one China SUV . Pathetic
F the haters, I love mine!
Basically, people don’t care about if it’s made in China or not. Like we’ve been saying since this was first announced.
And not caring about this nation is why it’s in the shape it’s in today.
Too bad that they are made in China!
Ford could afford to build them here but they have decided to make a few more dollars making them in China.
The only vehicles we own are Fords we are also invested in Ford but that may change if this continues.
Don’t support China and desert the American people!
Get rid of your cell phones, clothes and just about everything else that you have that’s made in China.
Unfortunately cell phones and clothing are no longer made in the US. There are plenty of great $80k vehicles made in the US you can buy instead.
Great job Ford! Ignore the haters, they were never going to buy Ford/Lincoln in the first place. They just like to criticize.
We definitely won’t even consider a Chinese made Lincoln let alone buy one.
THe “rejuvenate” feature IS NOT available and did not ship with ’24 models. Perhaps it will be available but it currently is not.
I realize that a lot of components in vehicles made in the U.S.A are made in China. What I can’t understand for the life of me why ford would build a plant in China given the political turmoil between the U.S. and China.
I have been a ford owner my whole life and we have a 2022 nautilus but I will be considering another option in a couple years.
Well Ford didn’t build the plant just to build the Nautilus. The plant is a Changan plant jointly owned by Ford to build cars for the Chinese market (same as the SAIC plant jointly owned with GM building the Buick Envision). But what I don’t understand is that unlike Buick that is widely successful in China (so as much as we don’t like it, it makes economic sense to build the Envision at its largest market) in the case of the Lincoln, I don’t think they are as successful there.
