2026 Nautilus

Scratch off #2 also. Version 1.5 has features 1.2 does not, like Automatic Lane Changing. It also handles narrow lanes better and has better speed stability through curves (there's a couple of threads complaining about that on here). It can also sustain itself longer through trips, without needing driver assistance.
Oh Brother...!
Throw me into the Yangtze River why don't ya....!
You 2024+ Nautilus owner's are a rough crowd !
 
Replacing it with an Aurora theme though? As a fan of my Allura Blue interior I'd like to see that. I'm not sure if it can be worthy of replacing the Redwood Theme as that really did look nice, but at least it's something new and interesting.

I agree....decades ago interior fabric and color offerings were seemingly endless. I like that Lincoln is bringing back a few new options other then the standard black, beige & gray!

You and me both! It's one of the reasons I found it so funny that Lincoln made you pay EXTRA to get a black interior this go around (Jet package). TBH, I liked the Jet package on the outside but there was just NO way I was going to get a black interior!
 
Surely SOMEONE has the 2026 Nautilus ORDER GUIDE?!?!

I've found several reviews and specs for it, but as of now, no Order Guide.

Production of MY 26 Nautilus begins today. Surely someone has the new ORDER GUIDE!!!
It seems to be a closely guarded secret. I'm guessing the dealers may have it, but I don't think it has been posted online. At least not where I usually get the 'guides'.

Perhaps they are concentrating on moving out the 2025 inventory. As attrition of the 2025's reaches a point, order guides and orders will be available, as well as room for inventory on dealers lots to park the incoming 2026's that will be coming in.
I am sure there must be plenty of MY25 inventory that has to be moved to make room for MY26!
Wonder how many MY25's are yet to shipped out of the CCP. It will be interesting to see how a 30% tariff plays out.

More of an enigma to me is what is going on with the Oakville plant. I cannot imagine they will be sticking to all electric, I would hope not!

I had a dream I got a call from my Lincoln dealer that the new 2027 Oakville Plant Nautilus was on his lot. He invited me to come in to see it & take it for a test drive!
I asked about particulars...and after he finished, he added..."Oh, I almost forgot, it is equipped with a 2.7l Twin Turbo.
I awoke suddenly after he mentioned that.
Alas....a dream without action is just a dream...but still, it is nice to dream.

Maybe we might see a Michigan built MY27 Nautilus? On second thought, maybe I should just stop dreaming about all this...!
 
It's unusual to not have the Order Guide out at this point in time. It has slways preceeded the beginning of the production start date. Clearing out current inventory has never been an issue.
As for the Oakville plant, they will be producing F-Series Super Duty Pickups in 2026 amid delays in electric vehicle production. It is expected to employ up to 3,200 hourly workers.

That is good news! I wonder if the 3.2k hourly employees is an uptick from pre-closure, the same, or less? I am thinking should be more since production will be spread across different lines/models...
 
I find the hybrid fine and since i have been using premium as an experiment it is noticeably peppier in transitions at lower speeds.
 
The Lincoln website now allows you to build a 2026 Nautilus.

Fewer exterior color options.

Fewer interior color options.

An option for a 'Windshield Sun Screen' as a dealer-installed option, with no real explanation what that is.

Higher prices.

That's on the U.S. site only. As usual, the Canadian site will likely have that ability in 3 weeks or so.
