Automotive luxury hits everyone differently. Some people want the latest tech at their fingertips — screens that respond intuitively and systems that seem to read your mind. Others prioritize pure comfort: seats that feel like your living room couch, climate control that adjusts automatically, and materials soft to the touch. Some folks just want something that feels special and exclusive.
The 2025 Lincoln Nautilus checks every luxury box you can think of; its cabin feels more like a high-end lounge than just another car interior. At Stivers Lincoln in Montgomery, Alabama, we’ll reveal what makes this SUV worth your attention.
2025 Lincoln Nautilus – What’s New?
This model year brings some stylish updates to an already solid interior setup. Lincoln added a four-year BlueCruise subscription as standard equipment across all trims, ensuring hands-free highway driving comes with every Nautilus. The new Lincoln Rejuvenate feature is finally here; it’s essentially a spa program for your car that uses lights, massage, and even scents to help you relax.
Visual changes include a new Light/Dark Smoked Truffle interior option, which is exclusive to the Jet Appearance package. This color pairs with the new exterior Whisper Blue Metallic paint, which replaces Blue Panther. These changes build on the major redesign from 2024, keeping the Nautilus competitive with other luxury SUVs.
Design and Aesthetic Appeal Updates
The cabin design focuses on creating a genuinely upscale feel without going overboard. Premium materials cover almost everything you touch. The standard leather seats feature detailed stitching, and soft surfaces dominate the interior panels. The open-pore wood accents and aluminum trim pieces make the cabin feel expensive but inviting. The ambient lighting even lets you customize the mood for different trips.
Material quality sets this interior apart from that of your regular SUVs. Special acoustic glass in the front doors and windshield, combined with active noise control, helps keep the interior quiet. The premium leather comes in several colors, including that new Light/Dark Smoked Truffle option, and the stitching patterns demonstrate Lincoln’s dedication to craftsmanship. All these pieces work together to create an interior that competes with premium luxury sedans while offering SUV practicality.
2025 Lincoln Nautilus Interior Dimensions and Seating Comfort
Space and convenience are also a priority in the Nautilus. Five people fit comfortably thanks to generous dimensions throughout. Front occupants get 43.5 inches of legroom; your rear passengers enjoy 43.1 inches — numbers that beat many competitors in this class. The smart design maximizes usable space while maintaining a cozy, luxurious feel.
The Perfect Position front seats offer exceptional comfort, featuring 24-way power adjustment with power thigh extenders and adjustable head restraints. Active Motion massage turns a long drive into a relaxing experience. Driver seat adjustment ranges from eight to 24 positions, depending on your trim level, allowing you to find your perfect setting.
Lincoln Nautilus Storage Solutions and Cargo Space
Luxury in the 2025 Lincoln Nautilus doesn’t mean sacrificing practicality. The cargo system provides 36.4 cubic feet behind the rear seats. Fold down the 60/40-split rear bench using the Easyfold release, and you expand this to 71.3 cubic feet. These figures ensure the Nautilus is among the most practical choices in its segment.
Hidden storage spots for personal items are strategically placed throughout the cabin, maintaining a clean look without clutter. The illuminated glovebox adds a premium touch while ensuring nighttime visibility. A hands-free power liftgate comes standard, making loading easier when your hands are full.
Lincoln Nautilus Infotainment and Connectivity Changes
The real showstopper is Lincoln’s Digital Experience, featuring a 48-inch panoramic display stretching across the entire dashboard. This massive screen offers four design themes with five customizable panels that show information in large, clear fonts and graphics. It’s four times wider than regular instrument clusters and displays vehicle status, Google Maps directions, and more.
An 11.1-inch touch screen below the panoramic display controls most vehicle systems. Despite its many capabilities, the interface stays intuitive, has brightness that doesn’t overwhelm, and keeps your eyes closer to the road. The system includes wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, plus Google built-in integration for seamless Google Assistant access. Standard 5G connectivity enables faster streaming, navigation updates, and over-the-air software improvements. Two USB ports serve front passengers, with another pair for rear passengers.
Comfort and Convenience for Every Journey
Climate control goes far beyond basic temperature settings. Heated and ventilated front seats come standard, along with available heated rear outboard seats. The automatic air refresh system maintains cabin air quality, and the digital scent feature lets you customize fragrances, including patchouli, cashmere, and fresh linen. The Lincoln Rejuvenate feature on the Reserve and Lincoln Black Label trims provides a multisensory relaxation program that adjusts lighting, seat position, screen visuals, and massage while releasing custom scents from three cartridges in the center armrest.
With the facility to take your hands off the wheel on compatible highways across the U.S. and Canada, BlueCruise hands-free highway driving represents convenience at its finest. This Level 2 autonomous driving system works with adaptive cruise control and stop-and-go functionality, maintaining safe distances and stopping if necessary. The predictive speed assist feature anticipates speed limit changes, ensuring smooth, legal travel. Power adjustment extends to the tilt and telescopic steering column with memory, while rain-sensing wipers and symphonic chimes, instead of jarring warning beeps add refined touches.
Lincoln Nautilus Safety Features
Lincoln’s Co-Pilot360 comes standard with a multitude of features. They include front automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, precollision assist, blind-spot monitoring with cross-traffic alert, evasive steering assist, a 360-degree camera system, rear parking sensors, lane-keeping assist with blind-spot assist, tire pressure monitoring, AdvanceTrac with roll stability control, and electric power-assisted steering. These technologies work together to help prevent and mitigate potential collisions, making the Nautilus a top choice if you’re a safety-conscious driver.
