Lincoln Navigator 2024

In 2024, Lincoln has made significant changes to its Navigator model, discontinuing the rear-wheel-drive option and consequently raising the starting price by $5,330. The 2024 Lincoln Navigator is now exclusively available with four-wheel drive, starting at $84,660 for the base Premiere grade. This price increase is notable, considering that the previous base grade for 2023, known as Standard, had a lower starting price.

For those seeking higher-end options, the 2024 Navigator offers Reserve and Black Label grades, with starting prices of $97,220 and $112,645, respectively. It’s important to note that all these prices include a $1,895 destination charge.

One notable addition to the Navigator Premiere is a three-month trial period for the BlueCruise 1.0 limited hands-free driving system, formerly known as Activeglide on Lincoln models. After the trial period concludes, a subscription is required, and it’s worth mentioning that the subscription term has been extended from two years to four years.

While there have been changes in options and pricing, the exterior styling of the Navigator remains unchanged. It continues to be available in both standard-wheelbase and stretched Navigator L configurations. Under the hood, it retains its powerful twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V-6 engine producing 440 hp, paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. There is also anticipation for a hybrid version, potentially arriving in 2025.

The current generation of the Lincoln Navigator was introduced in the 2018 model year and received significant updates in 2022, including larger screens, an upgraded suspension, and the aforementioned driver-assist system. It remains Lincoln’s flagship model, positioned above the Aviator, Nautilus, and Corsair in the lineup.

Furthermore, Lincoln has plans for an electric Navigator in the pipeline, likely sharing an electric vehicle (EV) platform with an upcoming Ford pickup truck and SUV. While Lincoln does not currently offer any EVs, it aims to launch several of them starting in 2025, with the goal of EVs accounting for nearly 90% of its North American sales volume by 2030.

Wow, the new Navigator sounds expensive, $5,330 more? That’s a lot! But the BlueCruise thing seems cool, 3-month trial tho. Wonder if I can afford it.
