Lincoln has unveiled the all-new 2025 Lincoln Navigator with a wide range of upgrades in design, technology and luxury. The 2025 Lincoln Navigator goes on sale next spring and will be priced above $100,000, but a look at the list of standard features even on the base model shows the latest version's growing status in the full-size luxury segment. The Navigator's 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 engine carries over largely unchanged, producing 440 horsepower and 510 pound-feet of torque, but nearly every other aspect of the vehicle has been enhanced.
Perhaps the biggest news for the Navigator is its 48-inch widescreen display, which offers Google Play Audio functionality in the form of podcasts and music, as well as video entertainment and gaming options while parked. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are also standard and available with 5G wireless connectivity. Google Voice assistant can be accessed via a dedicated steering wheel button, as well as Alexa and Siri voice commands. In addition to the large panoramic display, there's an 11.1-inch central touchscreen that can control many of the Navigator's functions.
The “Enlighten” interior theme is one of many themes buyers can choose from.

Among these features are highly personalized settings for display layout and app placement, music, interior lighting, and of course seat position and climate control. These can be linked to both a traditional key and a smartphone, the latter of which can start and drive the Navigator via Lincoln's “Phone as Key” feature. The Navigator senses when a key or phone is approaching and initiates the “Lincoln Embrace” welcome feature, accompanied by specific exterior lighting effects. The new Navigator offers four years of 5G connectivity speeds free with purchase.
New third-row seat design offers spit-folding and improved flexibility

For the 2025 model year, Lincoln has extended the premium treatment beyond first-row passengers. Second-row passengers enjoy the same heated, cooled and massaging seats as the first row, plus wireless phone charging and separate display screens. Third-row passengers also enjoy heated seats, and access is easy via a power second-row seat that slides forward with the push of a button. The third-row seats now split-fold 40/20/40 to carry passengers, cargo or both at the same time.
The 2025 Lincoln Navigator will be offered in an “L” style with an extended wheelbase.

New high-tech luxury features include an updated version of Lincoln Blue Cruise, which allows extended hands-free driving on certain highways and lets you change lanes simply by using the turn signal stalk. There are 14 USB ports, four each in the second and third rows. Lincoln's trademark high-comfort seats now offer 24-way adjustment for the driver's seat in standard Navigator models and 30-way adjustment for the Black Label model (the passenger seat has 22 ways of adjustment). Advanced towing features such as Pro Trailer Backup Assist and Trailer Hitch Assist are also standard on all models.
New “split gate” adds cargo and tailgate options

Buyers of the new Navigator can choose from multiple trims and themes, including the Jet Appearance package with black exterior accents and 22-inch wheels, or the Black Label model with 24-inch wheels. Full-width LED taillights sit on a split tailgate, with a lower section that can be used as a seat or table when tailgating. Interior and exterior color choices and multiple “Rejuvenate” themes that combine visual, auditory and scent treatments in five- and 10-minute sessions further speak to the high level of luxury experience Lincoln offers.

While the 2025 Lincoln Navigator will continue to reign as the brand's highest-end model, its unique combination of innovative features will position it firmly in the competitive full-size luxury SUV category.
