Lincoln Navigator Brings a Luxurious Ride

Lincoln

The 2025 Lincoln Navigator brings comfort and high tech to the SUV market with additional cargo capacity, a reimagined interior, the new Lincoln Rejuvenate spa-like experiences as well as BlueCruise and an immersive 48-inch panoramic display. We drove the Navigator from LA to Newport Beach and loved the spa-like super comfortable interior and new front display.

Exterior

The 2025 Navigator advances Lincoln’s strong exterior design with a bold, upright grille featuring an illuminated Lincoln star and LED light bar featured in both the front and rear. The split-gate tailgate offers a heavy-duty hinged lower section that can hold up to 600 pounds, making it perfect as a tailgate bench or table and includes an extra panel under the cargo floor which can be used as a back support or small ledge. It’s standard panoramic moonroof lets plenty of day and moonlight into the interior.

Interior & Comfort

The cabin is a beautiful expansive wellness retreat. Inspired by a view of the horizon, a panoramic 48-inch digital display stretches across the dash, accentuating space and minimizing cabin clutter. An 11.1-inch center touchscreen is also included and powered by Google’s Android Automotive OS it supports Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Google Assistant, and Amazon Alexa. Lincoln’s new Rejuvenate is a multi-sensory in-vehicle experience combining sight, sound, touch, and scent to help drivers relax and recharge. The Calm app comes free for a year (after that it is $69.99 per year) and includes meditation routines that engage the massage seats, scents, ambient lighting, serene visuals, and curated audio. Programs include Aurora Borealis, Elements and Waterfall. Scents include Ozonic Azure, Violet Cashmere, and Mystic Forest. Scents erupt from the front center armrest and last up to 120 hours.

 

Inside is the ultimate in luxury with ultra-soft real leather, wood inlays, and a quiet cabin. Seating is adaptable: 24-way power front seats, optional massaging second-row Captain’s or Bench configurations, plus a heated and ventilated 40/20/40 third row seat design with USB ports.

Driving & Performance

The 3.5 L twin-turbo V6 produces 440hp and 510 torque. It accelerates from 0–60mph in ≈5.3seconds and can tow up to 8,700 pounds. The ride quality is smooth and serene, supported by light-turning steering and a variety of drive modes including “excite” for sportier drivers and “conserve” for calmer steerers.

Tech

Beyond the futuristic panoramic display and Calm features, it offers Lincoln’s BlueCruise hands-free driving (with lane change assist), adaptive cruise, trailer backup assist, and an immersive 28-speaker 3D sound system. The split tailgate opens automatically as you approach with no kicking or fob required. The only drawback to the new tech-inspired controls is getting used to moving side mirrors and other adjustments through touchpads on the main screen. The standard button seems easier and quicker, though all the high-tech frills are cool to view.

The 2025 Lincoln Navigator is a spa on wheels. It merges a powerful SUV presence with a serene, spa-like interior elevated by a futuristic digital cockpit and thoughtful design touches. Lincoln’s execution of comfort, technology, and luxury sets a new benchmark. The Navigator’s estimated price starts at $85,000. More information at https://www.lincoln.com.
