Better ride and handling, thanks to a new four-wheel independent suspension, rack-and-pinion steering and a new frame New luxury and convenience features, including optional power- deployable running boards, power-folding seats in the third row and a power liftgate A refined new exterior and a new interior that mixes design cues from the 1961 Lincoln Continental with modern finishes and white LED lighting technology “The Navigator has significantly broadened Lincoln's customer appeal and paved the way for new models such as the LS, Blackwood and Aviator by introducing us to a new generation of customers,” says Lincoln Mercury President Brian Kelley. “The new Navigator delivers more of everything that made the vehicle successful in the first place. It is more luxurious, more refined and more capable on and off-road.” Design Navigator's design is distinctive and refined, both inside and out, and it includes a number of industry-first features and options that improve comfort, convenience and utility: An all-new interior mixes walnut burl, premium leather trim, satin nickel finishes and white light-emitting diode (LED) lighting to create a luxurious and contemporary cabin environment First-in-the-industry power running boards that quietly deploy a full four inches from the rocker panel when a door is opened, then retract automatically when the door is closed A power liftgate that can raise or lower the door in about 10 seconds All-new bodywork, except for the roof panel and front doors, that embraces the design of the first generation Navigator but with better aerodynamics, cleaner surfaces and a more dramatic stance. |
