Used 2020 Lincoln Nautilus SUV Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

The 2020 Lincoln Nautilus is available in three different trim levels: base, Reserve and Black Label. Each comes standard with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine (250 horsepower, 280 lb-ft of torque) and an eight-speed automatic transmission. Moving up through the trim levels unlocks certain option packages and more standard equipment.

Front-wheel drive is standard and all-wheel drive is optional. An upgrade to a 2.7-liter V6 engine (335 hp, 380 lb-ft) is available on the Reserve and standard on the Black Label. All-wheel drive is standard with this engine.

The base Nautilus comes standard with features such as power-adjustable front seats, driver-seat memory settings, heated front seats and simulated leather upholstery. Also standard are an 8-inch central touchscreen with the Sync 3 interface, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay integration, and a 10-speaker sound system. Driver aids include blind-spot monitoring, lane keeping assist, and forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking.

The optional Equipment Group 101A package adds a hands-free liftgate, premium leather upholstery, a universal garage door opener and a navigation system.

The Reserve trim gets you upgrades such as panoramic sunroof, premium leather upholstery, ventilated front seats, and a power-adjustable and heated steering wheel. An adaptive suspension is also included if you upgrade to either the V6 engine or the 21-inch wheels. Available options include the Lincoln Co-Pilot360 Plus package (a surround-view camera system plus more driver aids), a navigation system, upgraded front seats, and either a 13- or 19-speaker Revel audio system.

The top-of-the-line Black Label is similar to the Reserve, but it comes with just about every feature as standard. Lincoln also offers different paint and interior theme options for the Black Label and includes the special Black Label concierge service.

Which Nautilus trim does Edmunds recommend?

The midgrade Reserve gets our nod in the Nautilus lineup because it delivers more of the luxury experience with added features and conveniences. It also gets our recommendation because it's available with the more powerful V6 engine that also comes with all-wheel drive.
