Used 2022 Lincoln Nautilus for Sale nearMontgomery, AL

How much does the 2022 Lincoln Nautilus cost?

Prices have softened 14.01% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 1,659 listings available, which gives you a solid pool of inventory to compare.

Is the 2022 Lincoln Nautilus a good car?

Yes — the 2022 Lincoln Nautilus earns a 4.6/5 user rating and a 7.83/10 expert rating. The model scores 8/10 across Look and feel, Performance, Cost effectiveness, Technology, and Safety.

Drivers consistently praise the stylish design, smooth ride, quiet cabin, and advanced technology. The feature content also points to a comfortable, well-equipped luxury crossover with strong value for the equipment you get.

The trade-offs are worth keeping in mind: the base engine is underwhelming, the ride can feel woozy in Comfort mode, and the back seat is cramped. For you, that means the Nautilus makes the most sense if you want a refined, tech-rich luxury SUV and can live with a few dynamic compromises.

Listings with good or great deals make up 30.9% of the market, so there are still some attractive opportunities if you shop carefully.

Is the 2022 Lincoln Nautilus reliable?

Owners rate it 4.6/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

User feedback points to a dependable, trouble-free ownership experience for many drivers, with repeated praise for the quiet cabin, comfort, and overall quality feel. The expert evaluation also describes the Nautilus as aging gracefully, which supports the idea that it remains a solid long-term choice if maintained well.

Lincoln’s standard safety and driver-assist equipment also helps reinforce confidence in everyday use, and the available tech package adds more assistance features on higher trims. For used buyers, the main long-term risk is that higher-mileage examples may show the effects of luxury-feature complexity, so condition and maintenance history matter.

What should I look for when buying a used 2022 Lincoln Nautilus?

Accident-free inventory is solid at 86.2% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still check the history report on every candidate, even if the listing looks clean. Prioritize a thorough inspection of the cabin electronics, driver-assist features, and suspension behavior, since this model leans heavily on comfort and technology. Focus on overall condition, because the most appealing versions are also the most expensive and you want the equipment to match the asking price.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The standard model gives you the core luxury look and feel, while Black Label adds the most upscale interior themes, luxury floor mats, and a more decadent presentation. Base-trim shoppers should pay close attention to which comfort and appearance features are missing before deciding whether the lower price is worth it.
• Powertrain: The standard setup uses a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder with 250 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque, while Black Label brings a twin-turbocharged 2.7-liter V6 with 335 hp and 380 lb-ft. The V6 is the stronger choice if you want more passing power and a more effortless feel.
• Safety package: Every model includes Lincoln Co-Pilot360 1.0 with forward-collision warning with pedestrian detection, automatic emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, and automatic high-beam headlights. Black Label adds Lincoln Co-Pilot360 1.0 Plus with adaptive cruise control, lane-centering assistance, evasive steering assist, a surround-view camera system, parking sensors, and semi-autonomous parking assist.
• Infotainment: You get a 13.2-inch touchscreen with Sync 4, over-the-air updates, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, Lincoln Connect, a Wi-Fi hotspot, and SiriusXM 360L. Higher-spec examples may also include connected navigation, wireless charging, and the 19-speaker Revel audio system.
• Fuel efficiency: The twin-turbo V6 is rated at 21 mpg in combined driving and 25 mpg on the highway, with a maximum highway range of 450 miles.

Which 2022 Lincoln Nautilus trim should I buy?

The 2022 Lincoln Nautilus is offered in 3 trim levels: Nautilus, Nautilus Reserve, Black Label.

Here's the short version:

• Nautilus: This is the entry point, and it gives you the core turbocharged 2.0-liter engine, standard front-wheel drive, and the main luxury-tech experience without stepping into the pricier trims. It makes sense if you want the lowest starting price and can live without the extra power and premium touches.
• Nautilus Reserve: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it keeps the standard powertrain but adds more upscale equipment and can be paired with all-wheel drive. If you want a more complete luxury experience without jumping all the way to Black Label pricing, this is the trim to target.
• Black Label: This is the most luxurious version, with the twin-turbo V6, standard all-wheel drive, exclusive interior themes, and the fullest equipment list. It suits you if you want the plushest Nautilus and are willing to pay for it.

Black Label also gets the more advanced Lincoln Co-Pilot360 1.0 Plus safety package.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2022 Lincoln Nautilus?

This is a moderate market for selective buyers, so you can shop with some leverage if you stay disciplined.

• Deal availability: 30.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 1,659 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 14.01% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 86.2% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $29,825, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2022 Lincoln Nautilus's resale value?

The current average of $29,825 sits slightly below last year's $34,683.

That price movement suggests the Nautilus has already absorbed a meaningful amount of depreciation, which can help future resale stability if you buy at the right price. If you purchase near the lower end of the current range and keep the vehicle in strong condition, you may be better positioned when it comes time to sell.

The model’s mix of comfort, technology, and luxury appeal should continue to support demand among used buyers who want a refined crossover. Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.6/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2022 Lincoln Nautilus safe?

The 2022 Lincoln Nautilus earns a five-star overall rating from NHTSA, with a four-star rating for rollover resistance.

It earns an 8/10 safety score from our experts.

Every Nautilus includes Lincoln Co-Pilot360 1.0, which brings forward-collision warning with pedestrian detection, automatic emergency braking, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, and automatic high-beam headlights. Higher trims add Lincoln Co-Pilot360 1.0 Plus with adaptive cruise control, lane-centering assistance, evasive steering assist, a surround-view camera system, parking sensors, and semi-autonomous parking assist.

The main caveat is that the IIHS has not assessed the Nautilus for safety, so you should lean more heavily on the available NHTSA results and the vehicle’s actual condition when shopping used.

Should I buy a 2022 Lincoln Nautilus or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2022 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2022 if:

• 30.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 86.2% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 14.01% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.6/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2022 brings a refined cabin, strong tech, and an aging-gracefully character that still feels upscale.

Consider the 2021 if:

• At $25,351, the 2021 costs less than the current year's $29,825 average.
• It emphasizes traditional luxury comfort and easy-to-use standard tech.

The bottom line: If you want the better-balanced buy, the 2022 is the stronger pick because it combines a lower market price than last year, solid inventory, and a well-rounded feature set. If your priority is spending less up front, the 2021 is the value play and still delivers the Nautilus’s core comfort-first personality.
