Lincoln brings back the Corsair as a pricier Chinese import
Lincoln has unveiled the facelifted 2027 Corsair Hybrid, now built in China, with a $7,310 price increase and a 305 hp powertrain. The move reverses an earlier plan to stop importing vehicles from China and brings the crossover to US showrooms early next year.

Lincoln has introduced the facelifted 2027 Corsair Hybrid, a model that now arrives from China with a significantly higher price tag. The crossover, which replaces an American-built predecessor, starts at $46,495 before a $2,295 destination fee. That marks a $7,310 jump over the 2026 model, which began at $40,735 with a $1,495 delivery charge.
The decision comes less than two weeks after Lincoln announced plans to stop importing vehicles from China, making the Corsair the second model in the lineup, alongside the Nautilus, to be sourced from the country. The facelift brings the Corsair visually in line with the outgoing Nautilus, featuring a wider grille, slimmer headlights that flow into the nose, a new hood, and a revised lower intake. The rear gains a new bumper, a hidden exhaust, and updated taillights with integrated Lincoln lettering.
Buyers will have access to new 18-, 19-, and 20-inch wheel designs and five fresh paint options: Chroma Flame Red, Manhattan Green, Nocturnal Blue, Tinted Copper, and White Platinum. However, the US-spec model does not receive the high-tech cabin offered on the Chinese variant. Overseas versions feature a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and a 27-inch panoramic display combining infotainment and a front passenger screen. American buyers instead get a more conventional interior with a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and a 13.2-inch infotainment system, along with carryover switchgear and a dated steering wheel.
Standard equipment includes dual-zone automatic climate control and heated soft-touch seats with 10-way power adjustment. An assortment of options is available, including heated and ventilated front seats, a heated steering wheel, a universal garage door opener, rain-sensing wipers, a head-up display, and a 14-speaker Revel premium audio system.
Power comes from a turbocharged 2.0-liter hybrid engine producing 305 hp, connected to a continuously variable transmission and standard all-wheel drive. The model also comes equipped with BlueCruise 1.5, which enables hands-free driving and automatic lane changes. The 2027 Corsair Hybrid is scheduled to arrive in America early next year.
