This sophisticated system combines the twin-turbocharged V6 with advanced electric motors to deliver a combined 494 horsepower and 630 lb-ft of torque. The hybrid powertrain provides immediate response and enables limited all-electric driving for short commutes.

With a towing capacity of up to 2,540 kg, the Aviator provides the versatility needed for weekend adventures or hauling recreational equipment.

The Aviator projects elegance and presence through its refined exterior design. The front end features the signature Lincoln grille with a distinctive pattern that creates visual depth and character. Jewel-like LED headlights with adaptive functionality provide excellent visibility while enhancing the vehicle’s sophisticated appearance.
The Aviator silhouette maintains classic proportions, with a gently sloping roofline and a strong shoulder line that create a sense of forward motion even when stationary. New wheel designs ranging from 19 to 22 inches complement the vehicle’s elegant stance and provide a solid foundation.
The rear design incorporates full-width LED taillights that create a distinctive light signature at night. Chrome accents and dual exhaust outlets integrated into the lower fascia add sophistication while hinting at the performance capabilities beneath the surface.
