What Is the 2024 Lincoln Navigator?
The Lincoln Navigator is a full-size luxury SUV with seating for up to eight people; an optional second-row bench with three seats can be chosen over the standard dual captain’s chairs. A 440-horsepower, twin-turbo 3.5-liter V-6 teamed with a 10-speed automatic transmission is the sole powertrain. All Navigators now come with four-wheel drive; rear-wheel drive has been discontinued for 2024. Maximum towing capacity is a stout 8,700 pounds. For those who need even more Lincoln SUV in their life, there’s also an extended-length Navigator L version. Direct rivals to the Navigator include the Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESV, Mercedes-Benz GLS, BMW X7 and Jeep Grand Wagoneer.

Should I Buy the 2024 Lincoln Navigator?
With its massive prow and commanding seating position, the Navigator cuts a path through traffic wherever it ventures. It’s one of the biggest SUVs available today, and it’s priced accordingly: A fully loaded Navigator in Black Label trim soars well beyond $100,000. Many car shoppers, however, will be fine without adding every conceivable option to this amply proportioned — and already well-equipped — sport-ute. The cabin is elegantly designed, and its tech features are easy to use without needing to spend days reading the owner’s manual. If you need a vehicle of this scale, the Navigator is worth a test drive.
