Lincoln Nautilus keeps an estimated 49% of its original MSRP after 5 years — #522 of 684 cars VINdown tracks. See its full depreciation curve, cost per day, and best model year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Lincoln Nautilus retains an estimated 49% of its original MSRP after five years, ranking #522 of 684 cars we track. That trails the 55% five-year average for Luxury in its class by 6 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Lincoln Nautilus sheds about 7% of its original MSRP in year one alone. From roughly $53,995 it falls to around $26,457 by year five — a five-year loss near $27,538, about $15.09 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 3, a lightly-used Lincoln Nautilus bought at 3 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
