2021 Lincoln Corsair Review: More Than Just a Ford Escape

Auto123 reviews the 2021 Lincoln Corsair.

Arriving on the market last year, the Corsair is the official replacement of the MKC in the Lincoln lineup. Lincoln is Ford's de-facto luxury division and several models across the two brands use common platforms. The Corsair is one of those, sharing many elements with the Ford Escape. Of course, as with all Lincoln products, finish, quality and luxury are what help the Corsair stand above.

The automaker has chosen in recent years to simplify its lineup. It has only one sedan, the MKZ (2020 model on the Lincoln Canada website); all its other vehicles are SUVs. Of those, the Corsair is the smallest, and above it sit the Nautilus, the Aviator and the gigantic, very luxurious Navigator.

Lincoln means luxury, and the pricing that comes with that. But the Corsair does a fine job introducing consumers to the Lincoln universe for a relatively reasonable base price, $45,200. For our test we drove the Reserve version of the 2021 Lincoln Corsair, offered at $65,950. There is, obviously, a substantial difference in price, and consumers will need to think about what they consider to be truly essential before choosing a version.
