2025 Lincoln Navigator
BuzzScore: Not Yet rated
2025 Lincoln Navigator Exterior
Navigating the needs and wants of luxury car buyers has always been a skill possessed by Lincoln designers and engineers, and ever since the nameplate first appeared in the late 1990s, the Navigator has always showcased the best of what Lincoln is capable of. The 2025 Lincoln Navigator does nothing to buck this trend, boasting a 48-inch panoramic display, a 28-speaker sound system, and the ability to digitally select scents to be diffused into the cabin. The usual smattering of expected Lincoln features can also be found, such as heated, power-adjustable and massaging front leather seats, plus the ability to seat eight. When it comes to comfort and refinement, the Navigator stands out in the stable, and the 2025 model might even have what it takes to out-class both the Jeep Grand Wagoneer and Cadillac Escalade.

10 Facts About The Lincoln Navigator You Probably Didn't Know
Uncover ten fascinating facts about the Lincoln Navigator, exploring its luxurious legacy, tech innovations, and celebrity status through the years.
Luxury travel like this doesn't come cheap, and as such, the 2025 Lincoln Navigator kicks off with an MSRP of $99,995. Getting adventurous with the spec will see this figure soar considerably north, but that's not to say the Navigator is expensive for what it is - it's a lot of money, but there sure is a lot of car in return. We haven't had a chance to test drive this SUV just yet, which is why it's unrated and kicks off our list.

2025 Lincoln Nautilus
BuzzScore: 7.9/10
2024 Lincoln Nautilus Exterior
Available as either a gas-fueled model with 250-horsepower and 275 lb-ft of torque at its disposal, or as a more potent hybridized model with 310 horsepower, the 2025 Lincoln Nautilus is certainly capable, considering both variants take motivation from a very un-Lincoln-like boosted inline-four. Gone is the twin-turbo V6 which propelled previous generations, in the name of modernization, increased economy, and reduced running costs.
While it may not match the previous model's grunt, the all-new Nautilus looks sharper than ever, thanks to a fresh redesign, 22-inch alloy wheels, and an immaculately trimmed cabin, easily fit for a six-figure SUV. However, the Nautilus commands a figure notably south of that, kicking off at just $51,890. As a Lincoln midsize SUV, it's a strict five-seater, and is available with some exciting options, such as what Lincoln are calling 'Lincoln Rejuvenate'. This feature transforms the Nautilus into a spa on wheels, by changing the ambient cabin lighting, seat position, screen displays, all while kicking in the massaging-seat features.

Driven: 2024 Lincoln Nautilus Hybrid Improves On Excellence
The new Nautilus is a huge leap forward for the brand, and we think the hybrid powertrain makes it even better.
Even without spending extra on options, the Nautilus is well-equipped, with 10-way adjustable heated and ventilated leather seats, plus a leather-wrapped and heated steering wheel as standard. Furthermore, there's good news for all occupants, as it packs more legroom for all passengers when compared to the 2024 Lincoln Nautilus it replaces.

2025 Lincoln Aviator
BuzzScore: 8.6/10
2025 Lincoln Black Label Aviator Moonbeam
The 2025 Lincoln Aviator is the second-largest Lincoln SUV currently for sale, only shy of the gargantuan Navigator. In comparison to the Navigator, the Aviator looks much sleeker, thanks to a sloping roofline and softer silhouette. It's much more affordable too, with prices starting from $58,930, plus it can seat seven, which arguably makes this the sweet spot of all the currently available Lincoln SUV models.
It's versatile too, available in both rear and all-wheel-drive, plus, with 400 horsepower on tap, it's a pretty potent family hauler. The rear-most seats are a little snug, but perfect for bigger families with young kids. While the previous-gen Aviator was far from a bad-looker, the all-new 2025 model is so much sharper from all angles, and better equipped too, with previous optional specs such as the panoramic vista roof now trickling down to the base model.

2025 Lincoln Corsair
BuzzScore: 8.6/10
2025 Lincoln Corsair front 1/4
The 2025 Lincoln Corsair is the baby of the bunch, and as such attracts the smallest starting price, which kicks off at only $39,485. Under the hood sits a 250-horsepower 2.0-liter inline-four, which is punchy, especially considering the Corsair's size. A plug-in hybrid model is available, but it's reserved for the flagship trim exclusively, and that commands a hefty $54,365 starting price. The PHEV does sport a power advantage, but only by 16 horsepower, which could make justifying the steep jump in price a little tricky.
There is a lot to love about the gas-powered model, though, especially in the flashier Reserve trim, which sports 19-inch alloy wheels, an up-rated 14-speaker Revel sound system, built-in navigation and 10-way adjustable front seats trimmed in Bridge of Weir leather. All trims are equipped with an eight-speed automatic transmission, and while front-wheel-drive is the standard drivetrain, all-wheel-drive is optional.
