The all-new Lincoln Nautilus has earned the Grand Auto Winner title in the Automotive category of the 2024 Popular Science Best of What’s New Awards. Recognized for its seamless connectivity and state-of-the-art interior design, the Nautilus showcases Lincoln’s vision of modern luxury and user-focused technology.
Each year, Popular Science editors evaluate thousands of innovations and products, selecting the top 50 winners across ten categories. These selections highlight advancements that redefine their respective industries, and the Nautilus has been acknowledged as a significant achievement in the automotive space. The publication summarized it best: “Simply put, the Nautilus is a mobile communication centre with luxury seats.”
A Sanctuary with Purposeful Design
The interior of the new Nautilus redefines the modern driving experience, offering a spacious and calming environment designed to enhance every journey. At the heart of this reimagined space is Lincoln’s philosophy of “sanctuary”—an escape from the outside world that blends comfort, technology, and purposeful design.
The cabin is meticulously crafted to provide a sense of tranquility. It features high-quality materials, clean lines, and soft ambient lighting. A thoughtful layout optimizes spaciousness, ensuring drivers and passengers feel comfortable and relaxed. Lincoln designers have carefully considered every element—from the placement of controls to the ergonomics of the seats—to create a seamless, intuitive experience.
A Panoramic Digital Experience
The centrepiece of the Nautilus interior is the Lincoln Digital Experience, a 48-inch panoramic display that spans the dashboard. This ultra-wide screen is designed to integrate effortlessly into the cabin, wrapping around the driver’s line of sight to deliver information and entertainment with clarity and ease. The display simplifies access to essential features while maintaining an uncluttered, modern look.
With the Lincoln Digital Experience, connectivity is intuitive. The interface offers access to music, podcasts, and video content, which can be managed with minimal distraction. When the vehicle is in Park, drivers and passengers can explore apps, video streaming, and gaming options through the Google Play Store. This next-level connectivity transforms the Nautilus into a mobile entertainment hub, perfect for extended road trips or moments of relaxation.
Thoughtful Technology Meets Comfort
True to its reputation, Lincoln has ensured that the Nautilus's technology enhances comfort rather than complicates it. The cabin has advanced features such as customizable ambient lighting that adjusts to your mood or preference and premium seating with massage functionality.
The Nautilus also introduces a new Revel Ultima 3D Audio System, delivering an immersive sound experience with 28 expertly placed speakers. Whether it’s a favourite playlist or a podcast, the audio system ensures a rich, enveloping soundstage that makes every drive feel effortless.
Recognition for Excellence
Winning the Popular Science Best of What’s New Award clearly indicates the all-new Lincoln Nautilus’s ability to bring together luxury and technology in perfect harmony. With its serene cabin, intuitive digital interface, and innovative features, the Nautilus continues to set new standards for what modern SUVs can offer.
