Thanks for doing this review. Almost no mainstream automotive journalist has reviewed this car. Several years ago the Corsair was on my shopping list. But the PHEV was years late in arriving and didn't offer much over a top trim Escape. Now, it appears it does. However, I just went and looked at inventory on the Lincoln website. Within 100 miles of my Orange County zip code, there are just 35 Corsair PHEV available. That's not much and probably doesn't give you much leverage in buying. I have no idea what Lincoln dealers are doing when it comes to pricing. So, with limited availability and no publicity and no reviews, it's not much of a mystery why these are in the automotive backwater. Still, thanks for pointing it out to us! Update: I bought one! There may not be a lot of inventory, but especially in the range topping Grand Touring III version, they are not selling. I bought one for Invoice. That's right, about $4,000 under MSRP. And got 0% financing through Lincoln for 4 years. Correction to the video: at 5:59 Alex says this has a mechanical AWD system. No. There is no driveshaft. In the rear there is a large aluminum housing connected to the rear wheels, so, without being an engineer, I'd say that's an electric AWD system, not mechanical. The exhaust pipe from the engine runs down the center of the vehicle where you would expect to see a drive shaft. So far, I'm getting far more than the estimated 33mpg. More like 45mpg. Stay tuned.

Yeah the inventory problem for the PHEV Corsair GT is weird because it seems like the ideal daily driver.

I love how the Corsair looks especially on the inside, i definitely think it feels more premium than the NX, not by a lot imo but you can notice it. I do like the tech in the NX more, and the extra hp and range is nice. If I was looking for a vehicle in this segment those 2 would be at the top of my list for sure. It is kind of puzzling that we don't get a heat pump in the Corsair, but i guess thats what you lose for the cheaper price

If you're a fan of Consumer Reports reliability, hold on to your hats... The Corsair ranks higher than the Lexus NX. Yep, CR gave it 5/5 vs 4/5 for the Lexus NX... One quick correction: The Corsair, unlike the regular Hybrid Escape does use an eAWD system with a 50kW motor on the back, but it behaves more predictably than the Lexus eAWD system in our testing.

Two significant aspects of an ownership experience were omitted from this comparison between Lincoln and Lexus: vehicle reliability and the dealership experience. As a previous Lincoln customer and a current Lexus customer, I feel qualified to speak about these. My Lexus vehicles have always been bulletproof with no dealer visits outside of scheduled maintenance. My Lincoln spent much more time at the dealer with issues in addition to maintenance. And treatment at the Lincoln dealer was inferior to that at the Lexus dealer, both in terms of respect for the customer and services provided. At Lexus, service loaners and perpetual any day courtesy car washes are just two appreciated elements of being a Lexus customer. I would never consider shopping anywhere else but at Lexus as a result of my actual experiences with both brands.

One of, if not the biggest, feature Lexus buyers like is reliability. They know odds are very good that their Lexus will be problem-free for a long time (and hold a lot of residual value). Ford and Lincoln on the other hand can be counted on to have endless problems and to be worth pennies on the dollar when you go to sell it in a few years. Lincoln is basically the Wish version of Lexus, but they shockingly charge as much or more to the genuine article.

The 2.0t and 2.3t in the pre-refresh had nearly identical acceleration and passing power. Even fuel economy was almost identical, with the 2.0T being slightly better in the real world. In other words the 2.3T served no purpose since the extra ~40hp/torque made no difference
@ZealofSparta
@ZealofSparta Жыл бұрын
I don't know all of the details but Ford apparently redesigned the 2.0T in the last few years that improved the engine's overall performance while addressing a flaw in the coolant channels on the top of the engine block. Ford did not re-rate the new 2.0T for peak power and torque but my guess is it has better low and mid range torque that made the old MKC's 2.3T more redundant since, I think, the Corsair was the only model using that version of it. So cutting an engine variant to simplify manufacturing and producing a better product by fixing the leaky coolant channel must have saved Ford a solid chunk of money.

After my old company purchased cars for benchmarking, I’d rather be in a Lincoln than a Cadillac. It actually feels different, but as it is now, Cadillac feels like the updated Chevy bolt interior but with low grade leather added. I also hate how squeaky and moveable the plastics are. Like I would get it as a premium brand but Cadillac just isn’t good at luxury yet. They’re good with features like Tesla, but not good at luxury. But go back to 2014 and a Cadillac is way better than a Lincoln at the time as the Lincoln’s tended to just add expensive materials on top of thin cheap plastic. Crazy how the tides have shifted so much.

I bought the Audi Q5 PHEV. I’m surprised Alex didn’t mention it more in his review as the Cosair clearly had the Audi in its sights. The Audi offers better styling in my eye, more performance, better tech and reliability, more range and a better all-wheel drive system. Cosair only beats it on price - for obvious reasons.

Hidden gem for this segment for sure! Agree with your picks at the end, the XC60 is phenomenal if you can spend a little more. I think the Acura slumps on sales due to the goofy/awkward/terrible center stack in front inside a sea of piano black plastic with a side of "ohgodwhy" trackpad. One test drive and it's "lets test drive something else".

You not gonna use track pad, everything is a hard button there. I have 3rd Acura with a touch pad - I don’t even pay attention to it, everything is done smart. You can learn how to use system, but other cars won’t learn how to be fun to drive.

Can anyone speak to the actual real-world MPG of the vehicle, assuming you don't plug it in? Does it act as a normal hybrid (charging a bit as you go and regen braking) if you never plug it in, or does the electric portion only get used if you plug it in? How does this system actually work

It's a good vehicle but it's also hard to find in a parking lot because it's so bland. Looks drives sales in this segment too. Between the two you can make a for more charismatic nx than you can a corsair. Also you are 1asking for conquest sales in a segment where Lexus nx was the only very reliable vehicle for a whole generation[from 2014 to 2021]. They earned thier repeat customers.
