    Lincoln Navigator

    Latest Model

    2025 Model Redesign Year
    The redesigned Navigator has been transformed into a more modern, digital-focused full-sized luxury SUV with familiar size and packaging. Its combination of a potent twin-turbo V6 and a 10-speed automatic transmission delivers robust acceleration. Four-wheel drive is now standard. As before, both standard- and long-wheelbase models are available. The interior marks a striking departure, with a customizable 48-inch interactive display panel that arcs across most of the dash. The oblong steering wheel and some controls detract from the experience.
    Despite a rich set of features, interior comfort doesn’t match the price, such as the driver’s seat. Further, the ride and handling don't impress. Standard BlueCruise hands-free highway driving system is a plus. Overall, the Navigator makes a strong case for choosing a premium trim level of the lower-priced, similar Ford Expedition.

    2018-2024

    2018 Model Redesign Year
    Redesigned for 2018, the Navigator ups the ante over its Ford Expedition sibling, with more luxury and showmanship. The cabin is quiet, elegant-looking, and full of high-tech features. There is a bit of rocking feeling at low speeds, but the ride improves and is more comfortable on the highway. Handling, however, is cumbersome, even for a large SUV. The twin-turbo V6 generates 411 hp on regular fuel, and is paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. This combination easily moves the Navigator down the road and is capable of towing 8,300 pounds.
    The front cabin is roomy, but the standard seats are uncomfortable, and the push-button gear selector is fussy to use. Rear passengers are pampered with heated seats, a variety of connectivity features, and a hospitable third-row seat. Rear-wheel drive is standard, with four-wheel drive optional. 2020 brought lots of standard safety equipment. A refresh for 2022 adds Lincoln's Activeglide advanced active driver assistance system as well as an updated 13.2-inch center display running Ford's latest Sync 4 infotainment system.

    2015-2017

    2015 Model Redesign Year
    A freshening in the 2015 Navigator brought a turbocharged six-cylinder in place of the V8. However, fuel economy increased by only two mpg. Unfortunately, the update didn't include advanced crash-avoidance systems such as forward-collision warning. In this upscale class, such equipment should be readily available, if not a standard feature. The top-shelf Reserve adds 22-inch wheels, Lincoln Drive Control adjustable suspension, and upgraded interior leather and wood. The Navigator's cabin is spacious with room for eight and a third row that's usable even for adults.
    A long-wheelbase version adds even more room.

    2007-2014

    2007 Model Redesign Year
    In 2007, the Navigator was freshened, receiving a six-speed automatic transmission. The power-operated third-row seat folds flat into the floor, and the Navigator L is 15 inches longer, bringing significantly more cargo room. Sill, the Navigator never lets you forget you're driving a truck-based SUV with balky handling, a hard-working engine, and long braking distances. A rear-view camera is standard.

    2003-2006

    2003 Model Redesign Year
    The first full-size American luxury SUV, the Navigator offers leather and wood interior trim, seating for eight, and a selectable 4WD system that can be left permanently engaged. The cabin is quiet and both rows of rear seats are comfortable and spacious for three adults - unusual with any SUV. The 2003 redesign improved ride and handling.

    1998-2002

    The Navigator is similar to the Ford Expedition. The big Lincoln came swathed in luxury items, such as leather and wood interior trim. It also had second-row seating that featured two individual seats with a large console between them. The Navigator's selectable four-wheel-drive system can be left permanently engaged. It handled soundly in our tests but drank a lot of fuel. Climbing in and out takes agility, and parking and maneuvering around town can be a challenge.
