When it comes to full-size luxury SUVs, the 2018 Lincoln Navigator seems to have what it takes to separate itself from the pack.
This isn’t a very crowded segment. If you care about the posh badge, you’re basically looking at the likes of Mercedes, Cadillac, Lexus, Infiniti and, of course, Lincoln.
Luckily for the Blue Oval’s premium brand, the 2018 Navigator is more than just a fancy Ford Expedition. Sure, there are a few buttons carried over from its sibling, but overall, the Lincoln is more elegant and has a striking cabin, as Kelley Blue Book’s review points out.
And they don’t refer to just how everything looks inside, but also about how everything feels, from the seats to the trim and even the floor mats. On top of that, the cabin is extremely practical, with enough room for all passengers, as adults fit comfortably in the 3rd row, and plenty of storage spaces. Still, if that’s not enough, perhaps you might want to consider the long-wheelbase Navigator L.
On the road, this massive SUV is propelled by a twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 engine, producing 450 HP and 510 lb-ft (691 Nm) of torque. In a straight line, this unit gets the job done, while the new 10-speed automatic transmission suits it nicely.
Overall, the 2018 Lincoln Navigator is a spacious, luxurious and high-tech family hauler and it can stand against any of its rivals, which should probably worry some of them.
