the breakdown Lincoln is considering its own off-road SUV. It would use the current Bronco's body-on-frame base. A debut is expected in three to four years. Luxury off-roaders are a big business. You’ve got longtime staples like the Range Rover and Mercedes-Benz G-Class, with newcomers from Audi, BMW, and even Genesis supposedly on the way. Not one to be left out of the mix, Lincoln reportedly wants to build its own high-end off-roader. According to a report from Autoweek, Lincoln is considering its own off-road vehicle based on the current Ford Bronco. The Lincoln off-roader would use the Bronco’s capable body-on-frame platform, competing directly with luxury off-roaders from Land Rover, Lexus, and Mercedes-Benz. Lincoln Nautilus The report suggests that Lincoln’s off-roader won’t stray too far from the current Bronco, with the luxury brand’s familial face and a few softer cues draped over the SUV's boxy body. The latest Navigator would inspire most of the SUV’s visual cues. Even though Ford is reportedly planning a next-generation Ford Bronco for 2031, Lincoln’s off-road SUV would likely stick with the current model, which has been on sale since 2021. The body-on-frame platform would undoubtedly receive updates to better align with Lincoln's overall character. In terms of size, Lincoln's off-roader could align well with the current Defender. The current Bronco four-door is 189.4 inches long, while the four-door Defender is 197.5 inches long. Compared to other Lincoln models, the latest Nautilus is 193.2 inches long. The powertrain remains a mystery, but we don’t expect Lincoln to adopt the Bronco Raptor’s powerful twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 (although, you never know). The standard Bronco’s 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine or 2.7-liter V6 would be more likely candidates. When could we see Lincoln's off-roader in the metal? Don't expect it for another three to four years, at least. Motor1's Take: Sure, a Bronco-based Lincoln may sound like a silly idea on the surface (remember the Lincoln Blackwood?), but the reality is, luxury automakers are more interested in off-roading and overlanding than ever before. So, a Range Rover rival from Lincoln actually makes a lot of sense… assuming they can pull it off. We want your opinion! What would you like to see on Motor1.com?
