The mid-cycle update is now ready for the second-gen Aviator. According to spy pictures, it will be a talk-about vehicle. Camouflage suggests many changes in design. We can only guess because the panels hide details. We know that the size will not change. The bosses were delighted to announce that the new 2024 Lincoln Aviator will be equipped with advanced technology. Focus is placed on Google services and tech integration, as well as the hands-free system.
The premiere will reveal many details about the vehicle (or even before it, if you’re lucky). Black Label, for example, could introduce new themes. The interior of the high-end model is distinctive, but seeing the same layouts year after year can get boring. We don’t anticipate any major changes under the hood. The turbocharged V6 has 400 horsepower, and the PHEV system is a powerful 500-horsepower. Black Label is the highest grade of the Sport Touring configuration.
2024 Lincoln Aviator Redesign
Ford and Lincoln have panels on their test mules but they are clearly trying to reveal some details so that they can talk about them. The new Lincoln Aviator will be the focus of the presentation. The prototypes use the new mesh grille, and an interesting addition is the bar that connects the two headlamps. This solution could be seen on the Zephyr SUV sold in China. This is a new product for the US market. The rear was better covered. There are also changes expected, but no indications of what the tail will be like. The bumper and lights should be re-examined.
The rest of the SUV looks pretty similar. The 2024 Lincoln Aviator is in the mid-size category with an overall size of 199.4 inches. A full-size car starts at just under 200 inches. The legendary Navigator is a great option if you want a bigger SUV.
Interior
Cabin changes will be made, as well as the fascia. We saw on the test mules a large infotainment display, larger than the existing one (10 inches). Google is building a new system, according to experts. Spy shots cannot tell us this. Rumors have been based on the announcement of the Google and Ford partnership. All services (Maps Navigation Assistant Play Store, Google Play) will be more accessible and easier to use.
The dashboard and central console are not new. The company will add new systems to all trim levels. ActiveGlide is the most exciting option. This semi-autonomous system is a hands-free alternative to GM’s Ultra Cruise and Super Cruise packages. The ActiveGlide system will be upgraded in the 2024 Lincoln Aviator compared to the current Navigator and Corsair.
Engine & Specs
The mid-cycle update brings many changes, but the engine remains the same. The engineers won’t need to spend much time improving the Lincoln Aviator in 2024. The base powertrain is therefore a turbocharged, V6 engine with 400 horsepower and 420 lb-ft. The engine is coupled to a 10-speed automatic transmission which transfers power to the rear wheels. This configuration will return 18/26 mpg. A slightly lighter, more aesthetically pleasing Aviator may offer better mileage. All-wheel drive is an optional feature. In this situation, consumption is higher. It’s good to know that the engine runs fine on regular gas.
Plug-in hybrids are available in the 2024 Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring. The petrol engine is the same 3.0-l unit but with electric motors. The outputs increase to 494 horsepower and 630 lb.-ft. of torque. The SUV can be driven using an electric power source and has a range of 21 miles. The big rig has done well. The combined mileage when using gas is 23 mpg. Battery recharge takes about 3.5 hours using home outlets. Ford and Lincoln have the ability to improve the charging system for the 2024 Aviator.
Exterior
Lincoln Aviator 2024’s exterior is a stylish mix of aesthetics and functionality. The motorized liftgate, the front lip spoiler and the shiny chrome grille provide easy access to a large back luggage compartment. Roof rack rails provide additional storage, while body-colored knobs add a stylish touch.
The external lighting system includes auto-on/off LED headlights and perimeter lighting to improve visibility. The black side window trim and thick tinted glass add to the Aviator’s elegance. Power-folding side mirrors with turn signals help you see the surrounding area and other drivers. For added security, the rear door lock can be integrated with the power door locks.
Fuel Economy
Official fuel economy ratings for the 2024 Lincoln Aviator have yet to be released. Rear-wheel drive variants, based on the 2023 model, are expected to get 18 mpg city and 26 on the interstate. The all-wheel drive variant will get 17 mpg in the city, and 24 mpg on the interstate. Lincoln could improve these figures in the 2024 Lincoln Aviator Model. These are lower than several rivals.
Safety Features and Technology
Aviator is always focused on the safety of passengers and security, with innovative safety features. Automatic Braking detects an impending crash and applies the brakes to help prevent or reduce it. Cross-Traffic Alert uses sensors to identify vehicles and alert the driver. Lane Keeping Assist, Lane Departure Warning, and Lane Keeping Aid are all features of the Lane Keeping Aid System that keep the vehicle in its lane to avoid accidental lane departures.
The Collision Mitigation Front system detects potential frontal crashes and takes actions to minimize or lessen their effect. The Driver Surveillance System monitors and alerts the driver using modern technology. You can find important information on crash test results by visiting the websites of (NHTSA), and (IIHS).
Connectivity and Infotainment
The vehicle is expected to have an improved touchscreen display with intuitive navigation and advanced features. The vehicle will also feature two LCD screens mounted in the front, satellite radio, Apple CarPlay compatibility, Android Auto compatibility, 10-speaker audio with subwoofer, and a Wi-Fi hotspot. The Speed Compensated Volume Control also provides the best audio experience possible by automatically adjusting sound according to the vehicle’s pace.
2024 Lincoln Aviator Pricing
We can expect to see updated prices since the new version will be arriving soon. The 2024 Lincoln Aviator will not be available shortly. Test mules show that the SUV is nearing completion. After the redesign, the mid-size luxury vehicle will be priced above $55,000.
Standard, Reserve, and Black Label are the grades for V6 petrol engines. The mid-range offers are around $60k while premium features cost more than $85,000. You will have to spend an extra $10,000 if you want the hybrid engine. With a few additional packages, Grand Touring Black Label could easily reach six-digit prices. This is the world of full-size premium SUVs such as Navigators, Cadillac Escalades, and BMW X7.
