2023 Lexus NX 450h+ Vs 2023 Lincoln Corsair GT - Best Of Both Worlds? - Redline: Comparison Test

[@theredline]

Talk about near perfect rivals! Hybrid’s and Plug-In Hybrids are in such HUGE demand in the market currently. While many manufacturers are throwing tons of cash on the hood to move EV’s, Toyota/Lexus and other brands with hybrids in their portfolio are cashing in on high demand. Let us know if you are not ready to purchase a fully electric car but would gladly consider a hybrid or plug-in hybrid below!

My 5'-6" wife test drove both. She felt the visibility was much better in the Lincoln.

[@connerthecat4758]

It's kind of impressive that Lincoln was able to get less electrical range, less power, AND less total (gas+electric) range. Maybe a few less seat options and more battery pack would be wiser.

[@gieb6428]

I have a 2022 Corsair. I get 41-46 all electric miles. I have had the car charge up for a combined total range of 636 miles. The Corsair phev has more horse power than you would normally use. All this with all those seat options! Many manufactures list their electric range lower than reality, Ford is one of those manufactures. I considered the Old Looking Lexus but I purchased the Lincoln

Lincoln total win., Lexus red interior. Yikes, sad, Exterior Front, I like both. Lexus is on the sport side, but paying extra to get rid of the black by the wheels, negative at this price range. Back end, Lincoln. Lexis turn signal is square? Really. with the other design elements. Major miss on design detail. I have a MKZ Hybrid, my 2nd. no squeaks on the interior. No issues with Android Auto in the version 3, I'm in. Might be a Bad Apple issue with the computer lag in the Lincoln. LOL. You didn't try an Android. Interface might act differently. I use both systems Apple and Android, the interface varies with application. Panoramic Roof. Plus. The glass roof adds more weight than what Lexus has, so that eats up on range. Some of your comments are Lexus oriented. Folks should try both and decide for themselves, what works for them.

I have a 2022 Corsair Grand Touring. There are no squeaks and rattles. I test drove a Lexus NX hybrid and it just wasn't a luxury car. It rode much rougher and was much noisier than the Lincoln. If I wanted a nice upscale sporty car, the Lexus would be nice. But I wanted a luxury car, so I bought the Lincoln.

[@markfoster4993]

Lexus hands down. I've driven both Lincolns and Lexus' over the years. At about 75,000 miles you begin to see the remarkable difference, not coincidentally just about the time the warranty expires. For long term reliability, unequalled quality at every level, engineering superiority (squeezing more mile out of the battery, and from the gas) you will not beat Lexus. Even if you do a comparison with MB you you will find the Lexus superior. And finally, if you ever do resell the Lexus, count on getting about 20% higher resale than the Lincoln or MB.

[@redman8767able]

I’m 6 feet tall and the Corsair is not small at… in fact, I have to pull my seat up closer to the steering wheel… that NEVER happens. Usually my seat is further back. This is my second Lincoln and the cabin is always cramped when it comes to the passengers in the back… not in the corsair. People fit comfortably back there… people 6 feet and above.
