Lincoln has been working in the C-sector space for over a decade, seeking to bring big-car luxury to a small platform and package. The spacious Lincoln C concept of 2009 explored this theme, and hints of Lincoln interiors to come were found in that car, especially the broad two-tiered instrument panel and the wide, open cabin and panoramic roof; and the experience of the C project has surely informed the bringing of the premium ambience of Lincoln’s larger SUVs into the five-seater Corsair, which completes Lincoln’s latest product line renewal.

Though it will be related to the next-generation Ford Escape, a more car-like vehicle (Kuga, in Europe), the Corsair is squarely in the SUV/crossover sector and clearly tied-in with its larger counterparts, the full-size Navigator and mid-size Aviator. It’s no less of a luxurious Lincoln, despite its compact dimensions.
