A look at 2024 Lincoln Grand Touring Plug-in Hybrid Vehicles

The Lincoln brand has always been known for luxury and innovation. Nowhere is this more evident than in the American luxury automaker's plug-in hybrid vehicle lineup. Lincoln was one of the first premium brands to introduce PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle) technology to its luxury sport utility vehicles when it introduced the Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring a few years ago. Now, Lincoln offers two electrified sport utility vehicles, the Aviator Grand Touring and the brand-new Lincoln Corsair Grand Touring. 

Both Lincoln plug-in hybrid models give buyers looking for a premium SUV in the Barrie region a unique alternative to the competition. This article will explore what differentiates Lincoln plug-in hybrid SUVs for the 2024 model year.


What Are Lincoln Grand Touring Plug-in Hybrid Vehicles?

2024 Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring


As mentioned above, Lincoln plug-in hybrid SUVs are designated by the Grand Touring nameplate. Both the Aviator Grand Touring and the Corsair Grand Touring feature a standard plug-in hybrid powertrain. As we will see below, both offer the ability to recharge their generous battery at either 120V or 240V, delivering a useful all-electric range while preserving the freedom of a traditional gas-powered luxury vehicle.

The Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring features a unique powertrain. The engine combines a twin-turbocharged 3.0L V6 gas unit with an electric motor powered by a 13.6-kWh battery. This impressive combination delivers 494 hp with an outstanding torque rating of 630 pound-feet. By comparison, the gas-only Aviator Reserve model delivers 400 hp and 415 pound-feet of torque. 

The difference in performance can certainly be felt on the road, but when comparing the Aviator Grand Touring to its competition outside of Lincoln, we truly see how this model stands out. Very few of its direct competitors offer such ample torque, and the Aviator Grand Touring outshines most, if not all, of its rivals when it comes to passing performance and initial accelerations.

On the other hand, the efficiency of the Aviator Grand Touring is unmatched. The 13.6-kWh battery provides a generous range of around 36 km. That means you can drive on electric power alone without ever needing to use any fuel during short-distance travel. If you regularly commute within 30 km to get to work, you could do the entire week without having to use any gas. Even if you commute 50 or 60 km, the fuel economy benefits of doing a portion of your commute on electric power alone are significant.

Even more impressive is that the 2024 Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring, besides its more efficient and powerful powertrain, offers the same level of luxury, refinement, and versatility as its gas-only brother. The dimensions inside are identical, giving you the same headroom and legroom across all three rows. The Aviator Grand Touring offers room for either six or seven passengers, depending on the configuration, and it offers the same 1183 L of total cargo space behind the second row. With all three rows in place, you enjoy 519 L of remaining cargo space.

The 2024 Lincoln Corsair Grand Touring is the only plug-in hybrid option available in its segment. This makes it one of the most efficient and advanced compact luxury SUVs you can buy. It is also one of the most versatile and spacious.


Powered by a 2.5L Atkinson cycle inline-four engine, the Corsair Grand Touring delivers a healthy 266 horsepower, 16 more than the Corsair trims with just the gas powertrain. Moreover, the 2024 Corsair Grand Touring offers a 14.4-kWh battery that delivers a generous 40 km of all-electric range. Like the Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring, this allows owners to drive on electric power alone without using any fuel for significant periods. 


This explains the remarkable fuel economy of the Corsair PHEV. On gasoline power alone, when the battery is depleted, you average just 7.1 L per 100 km, which is unheard of in a luxury compact SUV. When the battery is charged, you will enjoy an average fuel consumption rating as low as 3.1 L per 100 km. This gives you an outstanding efficiency rating that never compromises on performance.


The Lincoln Corsair Grand Touring shines with its value proposition as well. Delivering a long list of standard features and equipment, it is also eligible for the maximum $5,000 electric vehicle rebate from the Government of Canada under the iZEV program.


Why Buy a Plug-in Hybrid Lincoln SUV?

There are multiple reasons to consider a plug-in hybrid Lincoln SUV. For starters, taking advantage of the benefits of the electric powertrain is easy. Lincoln PHEV models will charge on a standard 120-volt outlet in about 12 hours. Owners enjoy a full charge on a faster 240-volt outlet in 3 to 4 hours. 


Next, consider the improved horsepower. Lincoln plug-in hybrid vehicles deliver a level of performance that is among the best in their respective segments. Both the Aviator Grand Touring and the Corsair Grand Touring take full advantage of the benefits of an electric motor, delivering immediate accelerations and confident power delivery when passing. 


2024 Lincoln plug-in hybrid vehicles shine with their performance and efficiency, giving buyers the best of both worlds with zero compromise. You enjoy all of the luxury, comfort, versatility, and advanced technology that the Aviator and Corsair are known for, with the added benefit of class-leading fuel economy. What is not to love?
