LincolnThe new 2025 Lincoln Aviator (Black Label pictured)

Lincoln is offering details on next year’s Aviator, the second largest in its lineup after the Navigator. With some tweaks to the exterior, including a grille redesign, Lincoln saved most of its impressive upgrades for the interior--specfically technology.

This three-row, seven-seater continues to be big on luxury and value as the OEM packs in 13 of its most popular features as standard in the upcoming model year. Among those are a panoramic vista roof, heated steering wheel, adaptive suspension, and 20-inch wheels. Also included are the all-new Lincoln Digital Experience and BlueCruise1 hands-free highway driving technology, which is a first for the Aviator.

Aviator comes standard with Lincoln Co-Pilot 360 2.1, a suite of driver-assist features that includes Evasive Steering Assist, Lane-Keeping System with Blind Spot Information System, and Lincoln Co-Pilot360 2.1 Vision, which includes a 360-degree camera, front and rear parking sensors, and Reverse Brake Assist. Other convenience features include the wireless charging pad for compatible mobile phones newly located in the front-row center media bin, and multiple power outlets and USB capability in all three rows.

Lincoln says that it totally overhauled its infotainment system, which has voice commands via Google Assistant or Alexa, Lincoln’s preferred method of interacting with the Aviator. For tactile experiences, its touchscreen is now larger at 13.2-inches (replacing the current 10.1-inch touchscreen) with a new 12.4-inch digital cluster screen. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard.

As for power, the Aviator has a standard twin-turbocharged 3.0L V6 engine (400 horsepower and 415 ft.-lbs. of torque). It’s available in all- and rear-wheel drive.

The new Aviator is expected to be available this summer.
