Lincoln defines the ideal of American luxury vehicles with a great balance of power, comfort, and elegance in every model. But the 2022 Lincoln Aviator shows how the brand honors tradition while improving design and power for the future via the latest tech features and an available plug-in hybrid powertrain for unmatched all-electric range and efficiency. Whether you prefer the traditional strength of a combustion engine or the quieter stoicism from all-electric capability, the new Lincoln Aviator is ready to help you embark on the next adventure.

Under the hood, the non-hybrid 2022 Aviator is equipped with a truly impressive 400 horsepower and 415 lb-ft of torque, and upgrading to the Grand Touring trim level for the plug-in hybrid version delivers even greater output with 494 horsepower and a titanic 630 lb-ft of torque.

The new Aviator also is also a style leader, especially inside. It comes equipped with three-row luxury seating with a generous interior size. Many will find that the comfortable 10-way power-adjustable front seats feel like a dream. With a bench seat in the second row, there is plenty of space for up to seven occupants. Shoppers may also select from a pair of captain’s chairs and a center console designed for that row, which improves the vehicle’s tech offerings in exchange for seating reduced to six passengers.

The standard 2022 Aviator comes with a wide range of luxury equipment, including vivid LED exterior lighting, puddle lamps, powered tailgate, keyless entry and start functions, rain-sensing windshield wipers, tri-zone automatic climate control, heated front seats with driver’s-side memory options, and power-folding seats along the second and third rows.

The Aviator is also fitted with 10.1-inch touchscreen controls, an updated infotainment system that includes Apple CarPlay/Android Auto smartphone connectivity, Wi-Fi, two USB ports, satellite radio, and an enveloping 10-speaker audio system for immersion wherever adventure takes you.

In terms of keeping everyone safe, testing by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety earned the 2022 Aviator its best-possible “Good” rating in all crash tests in addition to a Top Safety Pick award. Both the standard forward accident prevention system and the Co-Pilot360 Plus features were honored with best-possible scoring as well. 

Beyond the typical airbags and stability-bolstering tech, every 2022 Lincoln Aviator is built with forward collision warning with pedestrian detection and automatic emergency braking, blind-spot and rear cross-traffic warning, lane-keeping assist, and auto high-beams. Additionally, a 911 Assist system with automatic crash notification is also included as part of the vehicle’s Sync 3 infotainment platform.

The official Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) recently chose the 2021 Lincoln Nautilus as this year’s Top Safety Pick award winner. Beating out competition, Lincoln’s newly updated headlights actively reduce glare and were the determining feature that sealed the deal for the Nautilus’s placement atop other contenders. The 2021 Nautilus also earned the best “good” score in all IIHS crashworthiness tests and achieved “superior” and “advanced” marks in the vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-pedestrian tests.

For any vehicle to qualify for the award, it has to earn good ratings in each of the following areas: driver-side small overlap front, moderate overlap front, side, roof strength and head restraint tests, and at least good or acceptable ratings in the passenger-side small overlap front evaluation. 

Vehicles also need at least an advanced or superior rating for evaluations that test vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-pedestrian front crash prevention, and a good or acceptable headlight score. The 2021 Lincoln Nautilus, which debuted on March 22, earned high standards in all six IIHS crashworthiness categories.

Lincoln’s North America director, Michael Sprague, stated that the Nautilus is a crucial vehicle for the company. He described how it helped solidify new clients who really benefit from the versatility of a larger midsize SUV when equipped with the deluxe features that define Lincoln as a brand. “Now, along with beautiful craftsmanship and intuitive technology, these exceptional safety ratings for Lincoln Nautilus position it for even greater success for our brand,” he said.

The 2021 Lincoln Nautilus delivers blind-spot monitor cameras, updated active lane control, and automatic emergency brake with pedestrian detection. Customers can also buy a 360-degree camera system, adaptive cruise controller, steering assist for evasive and emergency maneuvers, and an advanced automatic parking feature. The new Nautilus also provides over 100 cubic feet of passenger volume with just under 40 inches of front headroom. It offers 58.9 inches of front shoulder room and 39.6 inches of rear legroom so you can easily spread out and take in your Lincoln.

Lincoln Co-Pilot 360: Defined

Lincoln’s Co-Pilot 360 package hosts a suite of driver assistance technologies available for some 2019 vehicles and all current Lincoln models. The feature suite includes a backup camera, a system for forward collision warnings, automatic emergency braking, blind-spot alerts, a driver monitoring system, rear-facing cross-traffic detection, and even lane departure notifications with lane-keeping assistance, and a specialized system for monitoring driver safety. 

Lincoln customers can benefit from using any number of these features at their discretion, and can easily program alert and response sensitivity to match their preferences.

With one exception, this complete set of advanced driving assistance systems (ADAS) proved effective at reducing collisions, according to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). The one option missing from the stock Lincoln Co-Pilot 360 package is automatic reverse braking, which the company offers in the Lincoln Co-Pilot 360 Plus set of vehicle safety systems.

Lincoln Co-Pilot 360 Plus: The Best Of The Best

This enhanced edition of the Co-Pilot 360 is available on the Lincoln Aviator, Corsair, and Nautilus models. The main benefit of the upgraded suite is the extra adaptive cruise control tech with stop-and-go and lane-centering capabilities. 

What’s more, depending on the Lincoln model, Co-Pilot 360 Plus includes traffic jam guidance to help with burdensome commute conditions and evasive steering support to help drivers secure quick and necessary maneuvers to avoid obstacles on the road. The Plus suite also offers automatic speed sign detection that tells the advanced cruise control system when to slow down or speed up.

Which Lincoln Vehicles Have Co-Pilot 360 Plus?

Currently, only the Lincoln Corsair, Lincoln Aviator, and Lincoln Nautilus have Co-Pilot 360 Plus included, and the full series of systems is restricted to the newest editions of these SUVs: the Aviator and Corsair. As Lincoln reimagines or updates current vehicles and debuts new ones, watch for more widely-available Lincolns with Co-Pilot 360 Plus as standard.

Lincoln recently announced the new 2022 Navigator’s features and upgrades, including more details on the Lincoln ActiveGlide, the vehicle’s new hands-free driver-assist technology, and 30-way-adjustable massaging front seats, to name just a few.

Last year’s design brought a 10-inch touchscreen that has now been replaced with a refreshing 13-inch display. The new Navigator also delivers a strong set of intuitive features, like Lincoln’s Adaptive Suspension with Road Preview to give drivers a smoother ride via 12 sensors – including a forward-facing camera – that all work together to keep drivers safe and engaged on the road. These sensors are engineered to read the road 500 times per second and automatically adjust the vehicle up to 100 times per second to reduce any bumps or other undesirable impacts on the road.

Keeping up with the brand’s tradition of innovative luxury, the Lincoln Navigator provides available 30-way-adjustable massaging front seats that are highly customizable. Passengers and drivers can adjust each leg’s support to different heights for maximum individual comfort, and the SUV’s redesigned interior replaces old-fashioned car alert sounds with symphonic chimes recorded by the world-class Detroit Symphony Orchestra. Elegant touches like these deliver on the high-class quality Lincoln customers are accustomed to. 

The advanced Lincoln Enhance intelligence system enables Navigators to maintain an always-on relationship with drivers while bringing wireless software updates and technological improvements to the foreground. These updates install new features and conduct preventative maintenance to reduce repair trips and improve performance, allowing Navigator to get even better over time.

The Navigator’s featured ActiveGlide provides new driver-assist technology with unique light cues that appear on the head-up display to show when the ride’s camera and radar are turned on. This empowers drivers to operate their Navigator hands-free on prequalified highways for the ultimate relaxed experience behind the wheel.

Recently, a host of automakers have gone public with their decision to convert to the production of fully electric vehicles in the coming years. Now, you can add the luxurious Lincoln Motor Company to that list.

Earlier this month, the company announced that it will exclusively produce BEV, HEV, and PHEV models across the globe by 2030, beginning with its very first electric vehicle model next year.

“As we accelerate Lincoln’s transformation in North America and China, there is no better time to propel the Lincoln brand forward with electrification,” said Joy Falotico, president, Lincoln. “Electrification will take Quiet Flight to a new level with the smooth, exhilarating take-off feel and serene quietness our clients expect from a Lincoln. Our clients deserve the very best from Lincoln. Our world-class vehicles, effortless services, and advanced connected technology will allow us to create an always-on relationship with them and help transform the Lincoln brand for the future.”

By 2025, the luxury Lincoln brand expects zero-emissions vehicles to account for half of its global sales. Though no specific details regarding the upcoming EV model have been announced, Lincoln does note that it, along with three other planned models, will ride on all-new, flexible BEV architecture that is capable of both rear and all-wheel drive. These new models will join the Lincoln Aviator and Lincoln Corsair Grand Touring PHEV models, which are already in the lineup.

Lincoln’s states that its first EV will offer “a more spacious interior that creates the ultimate expression of the Lincoln sanctuary,” as well as “a striking, modern aesthetic, thoughtful details, clever storage solutions, minimalistic panels, a larger, expansive panoramic vista roof, a coast-to-coast display, and a new digital design language – Constellation –  that includes exclusive themes showcasing the night sky.”

In light of a whole new world of automotive ingenuity, it appears it is now Lincoln’s turn to get in on the action. Earlier this week, the Lincoln Motor Company announced “ActiveGlide,” an all-new hands-free driving system which will soon debut on 2022 Lincoln models.

Building upon the luxury brand’s already impressive array of comprehensive driver-assist technology, ActiveGlide will allow for hands-free driving on certain sections of divided highways across the continent, which Lincoln calls “Hands-Free Blue Zones.”

The system works by incorporating a combination of key technologies, including cameras, radar, and driver-monitoring systems. Using these advanced features, Lincoln vehicles will soon be capable of traversing nearly 100,000 miles of pre-mapped roads throughout the U.S. and Canada without the need for manual steering. 

To ensure maximum safety, the system can also monitor driver eye-gaze and head position via a driver-facing camera and instrument cluster in order to guarantee the driver’s eyes remain on the road in case of emergency.

ActiveGlide is expected to be available for purchase as an add-on software, which comes complete with a three-year service period. When the program is ready for launch via over-the-air software update in the second half of 2021, the price is expected to be around $600. The price of the hardware itself will likely vary by model and trim level.

According to a number of recent reports, the luxurious Lincoln Navigator is set to undergo a multitude of changes for the coming 2022 model year. In keeping with the top-of-the-line Lincoln tradition, the new model is expected to include revised styling, updates to its interior and infotainment system, and the possible addition of an all-new hybrid powertrain.

New front and rear fascia are expected, as is the inclusion of a new, landscape-oriented infotainment system. That said, the 2022 Lincoln Navigator is sure to continue as a full-size, three-row, body-on-frame SUV with two body style configurations: the 210-inch Lincoln Navigator (standard length) and 222-inch Lincoln Navigator L (extended length).

Under the hood, the 2022 Lincoln Navigator will likely continue to offer its 3.5L EcoBoost V6 engine, though some modifications may present an increase in power. Currently, this engine setup already produces 450 horsepower and 510 pound-feet of torque. 

In keeping with modern trends, it is very likely that the 2022 Lincoln Navigator will also introduce a new hybrid powertrain option, most likely a 3.5L PowerBoost V6. Currently, that engine can produce 430 horsepower and 570 pound-feet of torque. 

The 2021 Lincoln Navigator’s 10-speed automatic transmission is expected to return for both engine options.

The 2022 Lincoln Navigator and extended-length Lincoln Navigator L will likely be offered at all three luxury Lincoln trim levels. This refined SUV will continue to be produced at Lincoln’s Kentucky plant, and is expected to launch in the last quarter of this year, with an official reveal probably coming this summer.

The 2022 Lincoln Navigator will represent the first year of the all-new fourth generation model. Are you interested in getting behind the wheel of this luxury Lincoln ride today?
