In addition to some nifty new leathers, backlit interior trim is now available on the Corsair. While it isn’t the full whorehouse red interior you’d find on an old Lincoln Mk IV, it offers a deeper, richer sort of red than what’s usually offered in the segment. Should a Corsair customer actually dare to be bold, Eternal Red leather is new on the menu. A warm gray called Smoked Truffle lightens up such a dull theme, while providing a bit of padding for anyone who’d quickly ruin a pure gray interior. While gray interiors are picking up steam, Lincoln has put a twist on the easily-soiled color by making it look slightly pre-soiled. A pale blue called Whisper Blue and Crystal Red join the palette, while things get even more exciting on the inside. Lincoln’s known for offering great colors and the updated Corsair is no exception.

There’s another big tech update going on inside the Corsair: The wireless charging pad is now located in a place where humans can actually reach it. The remaining switch bank on the floating console actually looks like an old radio, with buttons and a knob to control stereo volume accented by a lovely metallic bezel. While automatic climate control is largely a set-and-forget proposition, it would’ve been nice to have redundant physical controls.

It only works on mapped highways and won’t be a cheap option, but nothing else in the segment offers hands-free Level 2 ADAS.Īlso on offer is a massive 13.2-inch infotainment screen, although climate controls are now hidden in the touchscreen.

See, the 2023 Corsair gets Lincoln ActiveGlide 1.2, a rebranded version of Ford’s BlueCruise hands-free Level 2 advanced driver assistance system. Instead of performance, Lincoln now seems to be focusing on advanced driver assistance systems. While choices of a 250-horsepower two-liter turbocharged gasoline engine and a 266-horsepower plug-in hybrid are quite sufficient for the segment, the 295-horsepower range-topper was sneakily potent. The optional zesty 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine has been axed, which is rather unfortunate. If anything, there’s a reason for Lincoln’s smallest crossover to wear a bit of a long face.
