Inheriting the genes of Lincoln's iconic design, the locally-produced Corsair features curve-adaptive LED headlights and a pronounced Lincoln star centered on the now-familiar grille. At the rear end, the signature but slimmer taillight cluster stretching across the tailgate accentuates the vehicle's width.

In terms of the interior, the China-built Lincoln Corsair stays true to the outgoing model. The most eye-catching facility must be the 12.8-inch console-mounted display which is equipped with SYNC+, an in-vehicle infotainment system built specifically for Chinese consumers. Moreover, the lacquered panel at the leather-wrapped air conditioning area is designed to meet consumers' classy tastes.

The ANC (active noise control) system and the Michelin Primacy SUV tires are standard features across the all-new Corsair variants. Other standard niceties include the heated front seats and cruise control system, etc.
