How we verify Lincoln Nautilus performance data

We include only independently published road-test results from automotive publications. Manufacturer-claimed 0–60 times are excluded unless clearly labeled. When multiple publications test the same Lincoln Nautilus trim, each run is listed separately — weather, tires, surface, rollout, and instrumentation all affect results.

Lincoln Nautilus performance FAQs

6 questions
The quickest Lincoln Nautilus on record is the 2021 Lincoln Nautilus Black Label 2.7T, which runs 0–60 mph in 5.7 seconds and clears the quarter-mile in 14.30 seconds at 95.3 mph.
The slowest recorded Lincoln Nautilus is the 2024 Lincoln Nautilus Black Label, which takes 7.5 seconds to reach 60 mph and runs 15.70 seconds in the quarter.
Averaged across all 13 verified runs, a Lincoln Nautilus reaches 60 mph in 6.51 seconds and completes the quarter-mile in 14.92 seconds at roughly 94.3 mph.
We have verified test data for 4 model years. Each year shows every recorded run, the publication that measured it, and the trim-level details.
Every figure is sourced from published road tests by Car and Driver, Motor Trend and Motor Week. We don't use manufacturer claims — only independently timed runs — so the numbers reflect what the car actually does.
0–60 and quarter-mile results depend on driver technique, ambient temperature, tire condition, road surface, altitude, and testing instrumentation. A published figure is a single sample, not an absolute — which is why we show the range of verified runs rather than one number.

0–60 and quarter-mile times vary with driver, weather, tire temperature, and wear. We collect every verified run we can find — so you see the range of what a Lincoln Nautilus can do, not a single marketing claim.
