Basics About the 2023 Lincoln Aviator

Powertrain Options

Making the Aviator one of the most powerful examples in its segment is its impressive 3.0L twin-turbocharged V6 engine. Not only does it produce a robust 400 horsepower and 415 lb-ft of torque, but it also uses auto start-stop technology for added efficiency, resulting in an EPA rating of 24 highway MPG for all-wheel drive models. 

Grand Touring and Black Label Grand Touring Models are powered by a plug-in hybrid version of the motor, which offers even greater efficiency and an increase in performance to 494 horsepower and 630 lb-ft of torque. Both engines are paired with the intelligent 10-speed SelectShift automatic transmission that offers multiple drive modes for more relaxed cruising or sharper performance. 

Dynamic Handling Package

For those who want to further enhance their Aviator’s handling, the vehicle’s available Dynamic Handling Package adds Lincoln’s innovative Adaptive Suspension and Air Glide Suspension. Instead of traditional coil springs, air bladders are used to provide passengers with an amazingly smooth riding experience. The suspension system automatically injects or releases air, depending on the road conditions and selected drive mode.

The package also includes the Dynamic Lower Entry feature, which automatically lowers the vehicle as you approach it, making it easier to step into.

Interior

Once you get inside the Aviator, you’ll be greeted by a sophisticated, cleverly designed cabin. Premium materials can be found throughout the cabin, and the seating arrangement can be customized to seat six or seven occupants. The available Perfect Position front seats offer 30-way power adjustability and Active Motion massage for helping to reduce fatigue. 

Outside noise is greatly reduced thanks to active noise control that includes an acoustic-laminate windshield and expandable baffles. Audible alerts, such as those for an open door or seat belts use pleasant live recordings of musical instruments, so they won’t detract from a peaceful trip.

Multimedia and Connectivity

A 10.1-inch infotainment touchscreen system comes standard on the vehicle and features Apple CarPlay/Android Auto smartphone integration, SiriusXM satellite radio, and a 4G LTE embedded modem for internet access while on the go. Four USB ports are available for wired connections. The Aviator’s voice-activated navigation system makes it easier than ever to get to your destination by including SiriusXM Traffic and Travel Link.

The available Revel Ultima 3D premium audio system makes use of a whopping 28 speakers to deliver incredible surround sound.

With its head-turning style and a dizzying array of compelling features, the Aviator is sure to dazzle! Visit Star Lincoln today to check out this model and other great Lincoln automobiles!
