Lincoln rates the gas engine, a 2.0-liter turbocharged four, at 250 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque on premium fuel, paired with an eight-speed automatic. All-wheel drive is standard, so there is no front-drive Nautilus to sort through and no traction decision to make at the order sheet.

The Nautilus carries a 20-gallon fuel tank, and a hybrid powertrain is available with its own page here. For towing, a Class I Trailer Tow Package is dealer-installed rather than factory-fitted, and the towing page below covers the rating and its conditions.

• 2.0L turbocharged four: 250 hp and 280 lb-ft
• Eight-speed automatic transmission
• All-wheel drive standard on every trim
• 20-gallon fuel tank
• Available hybrid powertrain
• Five wheel options from 19 to 22 inches

The 48-inch panoramic display remains the centerpiece of the cabin, running the full width of the dashboard and anchoring the Lincoln Digital Experience. Lincoln calls it class-leading. Google is built in for voice, maps and apps, and it updates over the air.

The Lincoln Connectivity Package comes standard with four years of activated connectivity covering navigation, apps and an unlimited Wi-Fi hotspot. Audio steps up through the range, with the 14-speaker Revel system standard on the Reserve and the 28-speaker Revel Ultima 3D standard on Black Label.

• 48-inch panoramic display across the dashboard
• Lincoln Digital Experience with Google built-in
• Google Maps and Google Play Store on board

Every 2027 Nautilus includes four years of BlueCruise 1.5, the version that adds smooth automatic lane changes to Lincoln's hands-free highway driving. It works on the divided highways Lincoln has mapped and prequalified as hands-free Blue Zones, it requires an active plan or trial, and the driver keeps watching the road and stays ready to take over.

New for 2027, the Lincoln Security Package is standard on all three trims with four years included, covering Start Inhibit, Theft Alerts and Stolen Vehicle Services through the Lincoln app. Lincoln Co-Pilot360 Drive 2.0 handles the driver-assistance side, with adaptive cruise control that includes Lane Centering Assist and Stop-and-Go.

• Four years of BlueCruise 1.5 included
• Automatic lane changes on prequalified highways
• Lincoln Security Package new for 2027, all three trims
• Start Inhibit and Theft Alerts via the Lincoln app
• Stolen Vehicle Services with a dedicated line
• Adaptive cruise with Lane Centering and Stop-and-Go

The Nautilus seats five across two rows and gives the second row 43.1 inches of legroom, a figure Lincoln kept front and center for 2027. Cargo runs 71.3 cubic feet behind the first row and 36.4 behind the second on the Premiere, with the Reserve and Black Label at 68.8 and 35.2 because of how their interiors are configured.

Three interior treatments change for 2027. A lighter Afterglow theme is available on the Premiere and Reserve, the Reserve adds Hot Chocolate, and Black Onyx has been updated with a full-black lower panel against a lighter upper cabin. Black Label brings two new themes of its own, Eminent Hour and Elysian Light. The Renew Package on Reserve 200A pairs Lincoln Rejuvenate with 24-way Perfect Position front seats with memory and massage; Rejuvenate runs only with the vehicle in Park.

• 43.1 inches of second-row legroom
• Cargo up to 71.3 cu ft behind the first row
• New Afterglow and Hot Chocolate interior themes
• Black Label themes Eminent Hour and Elysian Light

The 2027 freshening is easiest to read from the front. A bolder and wider grille sits under a redesigned hood, the fenders are more sculpted than before, and new signature lighting carries the theme from the headlamps all the way to the slimmer taillamps, which now put the Lincoln badge in the center.

Two colors are new: Nocturnal Blue, a rich frosted blue, across the range, and Frosted Fig, a plum-purple, exclusive to Black Label. Five wheel options span 19 to 22 inches depending on trim, and the Jet Appearance Package is now available on the Premiere, the Reserve and Black Label alike, adding a glossy black grille and exterior accents with 20- or 22-inch wheels.

• Bolder, wider grille and redesigned hood
• New signature lighting front to back
• Slimmer taillamps with centered Lincoln badging
• New Nocturnal Blue available across the range
