The 2022 Corsair is Lincoln's small luxury SUV. It scores well for comfort and luxury but has other aspects that don't fully meet luxury-class standards.

2022 Lincoln Corsair Reserve 4dr SUV AWD (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 8A)
What's not to love? The comfort, the features, the color and the ride...all fantastic! The leather interior is beautiful and the feel of the leather is even more wonderful than we imagined. We bought the Reserve model so there are more added features. We have taken two roadtrips averaging 30 to 31 MPG with the 2.0 liter engine. Engine, transmission and suspension are all great. We … researched several luxury models and this one came to the forefront. It's elegance at an affordable price.
For Now, The Best Of Both Worlds

2021 Lincoln Corsair Grand Touring 4dr SUV AWD (2.5L 4cyl gas/electric plug-in hybrid EVT)
While the EV is on its way to being the standard, the internal combustion engine maintains its hold on vehicles used for longer journeys ... as my wife pointed out, who wants to stop at a 7-11 for an hour or so every 200-300 miles? We already own a VW ID.4 with a range just under Tesla's, and we do what we can to contribute to environmental recovery.
Toward that end, the Lincoln Corsair … Grand Touring fills the bill nicely. It's a plug-in hybrid (we already have the 220 setup) which gets about 30 miles before switching over, so local driving isn't a contributor to the vile Houston air quality. Charging it isn't an issue ... just a simple overnight connection. I've had it on the freeway, and the 4-cylinder engine is more than adequate ... won't win any acceleration awards but does the job smoothly and quietly.
The interior is pure Lincoln luxury (the 301A package is definitely worth the price), loaded with tech. If there's anything I'd change, it would be moving the push-button shifter a bit closer to the driver's reach.
Update: six months and about 5k miles later, my thoughts on this vehicle have not changed a bit. It's an exceptional SUV which performs as advertised ... smooth comfortable ride, more than adequate acceleration, luxury throughout. If you can find one, definitely take it for a spin. You'll be pleasantly surprised.
Well, after over a year of ownership, the vehicle continues to impress. Other than minor tweaks, it's pretty much everything I expected. While most of my driving is local, the traditional hybrid format kicks in a few times a month. Between the two formats, I'm averaging just over 160 mpg. The only drawback is receiving less cash back from my Costco VISA, since I rarely visit the gas pumps. Overall, a terrific vehicle, a pleasure to drive, smooth performing, with plenty of zip. I recommend it without hesitation.
Corsair Grand Touring PHEV RULES Class (G2)

2022 Lincoln Corsair Grand Touring 4dr SUV AWD (2.5L 4cyl gas/electric plug-in hybrid EVT)
OMG! So this is my 3rd FoMoCo hybrid product. First was a 2017 Fusion Hybrid Titanium. Then 2019 Lincoln MKZ Reserve Hybrid II, and now this one. I know the powertrain system well. The other two cars were perfect. I only traded the MKZ because of a lemon law claim with a dealer that couldnt repair.
Yes I do miss some things- like an ok option to confirm choices on both sides of the … steering wheel. Also, the engine cover that quiets, quells, or covers up some of the buzz from the ICE engine. I also miss the 120v household style outlet in the backseat. This one gives all the modern stuff, but I'd rather have the plug (solution is to buy a car inverter for those times).
I love the interior. I had to figure out how to darken the lighting, as its kind of spaceship and space age flight theme. I love the wood in the dash. The 'laser' lights in the interior lights are wonderful, but can be too bright at night. I love the 24 way massaging seats, including the thigh support buttons. The heated seats are upgraded too, as they are far warmer and expansive. No other SUV or plug-in hybrid offered them from what I remember. Even the Q5 didnt, but its optioned the same cost $8k more than my G2.
The exterior is great too. I tinted the windows AND the privacy glass. In Elite Blue Metallic, it is lighter than i thought, but the contrast with the tint is amazing and I always walk up proud of the color choice. My other vehicles are usually dark and basic, so this marks a change. I've heard that water runs down the cabin- likely due to the slots for the cargo hatch hinges. I'll just get it handwashed. Not much difference versus $20 for the machine that can scrap and scratch paint. I havent tried the deicing nozzle washers yet and other new external features. I do like having the foot-activated hatch, but I've seen it only go halfway up on its own.
Im 1300 miles in, having ordered it, and I'm fairly impressed. Not only do the other luxuries not offer the massaging seats, the gas mileage is amazing too. I know the 78-e rating, but Im not able to charge up the 12v while at work, so to maintain 58 mpge during the break-in period, I'm satisfied. I expected it to go up and will update the review at 10k miles.
Im now almost at 20k miles. I hate if I start and throw it into drive too quickly, the check engine light comes on lol. If i leave the charge door open, the light comes on. Really, that's about the best I can do. I will get different and better tires when I get to 40k miles. The wireless charger works well. The adaptive cruise and lane centering work well. Massaging seats AMAZING!!
BIG UPDATE!!!
4/6/23 945 pm after driving over ten hours from GA to IL, I pulled into my mom's drive.
4/7/23 115 pm after sitting overnight, i go to the post office. One minute later, I notice the check engine light snuck on. The engine is now warming. 5 minutes later, I pull up at the post office after that short drive. The car tells me the engine is too warm. I let the car sit. 30 minutes later, I pull off, only to pull over again after about 2 minutes. Call around. Find a dealer. Take it there the next morning. The idiot tech said I broke it in a crash. lol. Not so. but its my fault. Will need a new battery for $15k, with a 2-3 month wait time. NOPE!! Drive back to family home. Found another dealer. Properly diagnosed the coolant hose leaked. Not sure why or how. But it was not my impact. Yet I paid for EVERYTHING out of pocket once Lincoln decided at day 44 I was on the hook. I got BBB involved. Paid $2537 on everything. experience cut my side income. made things tight. 6/9 I get the car back. Engine is running warm at times in EV mode, but its not so bad. 9/5 I total the car getting off the exit. I feel like 26 air bags deployed!!! i walked away. WIll be getting a 2021 to replace it. Yes, I'm eager to see it, as many said the 21 GT had better quality than the '22. I do not regret a MOMENT of time in this car. Why else would I scourer the entire US using autotrader to find the one I wanted, the color I wanted, with an extra feature or two to replace the factory ordered Corsair that replaced my brand new MKZ hybrid that had one dumb mechanical issue with the cruise??? I'm must concerned that hose may break again. STILL five stars!! honda and toyota have isolated things like this in a few thousand cars a year too.
By the way, EVERY solitary moment in that car has been amazing!!! Why else would i prefer it over less expensive, used luxury PHEVs that cost $30k vs 40k???

2021 Lincoln Corsair 4dr SUV (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 8A)
The Corsair is a very nice vehicle, the fit and finish were very nicely done. The ride was very compliant and noise was minimal. I love the full length roof glass! There are some things that Lincoln could of upped their game on such as: 1, Don't charge extra for a donut tire, 2, Make the info screen larger. 3. The info display between the speed and rpm is grainy and not very bright … during day. 4,The auto stop/start should have a button of its own and not have to go through the info screen to turn off. 5. Don't charge extra for a cargo cover for the luggage area. 6. Why not a plastic engine cover to keep engine clean? 7. The AC vents in rear are noisy. 8. Why hide the lane keep assist button on the end of the turn signal?
