The 2017 Lincoln Navigator is a full-size luxurious SUV that has a room available for eight persons and lots of cargoes. It gives the passengers a cool ride for any types of road. It also has an easy-to-use tech interface and a vital towing capacity that enables it to handle large trailers.

This bold-looking SUV is not only for rugged use, but it is also a luxury vehicle and has a lot of luxury features to offer. On the highway, the car is impressively quiet and comfy with its powerful turbocharged V6 engine which makes the vehicle very easy to drive.

The 2017 Lincoln Navigator is available in two sizes, the standard wheel-based and the extended wheel-based navigator. Both lengths have three-row seating with captain's chair in both first and second row. The navigator's standard seating capacity is to seven passengers, but an available three-person 40/20/40 split second-row bench increases the seating capacity into eight.

On the other hand, the reverse has 22-inch wheels, adaptive suspension dampers, a two-tone exterior paint scheme and upgraded leather upholstery that covers the doors, dash, and console. Lincoln's Navigator is powered by a 3.5-liter turbocharged V6 engine that releases 380 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque with a six-speed automatic transmission, and a rear-wheel drive as standard.

The four-wheel-drive Navigator underwent a test at a test track. It went from zero to 60 mph in a span of 6.7 seconds which is an average time for a full-size luxury SUV. Nearly four identical EPA Estimates for the various trims and lengths of the navigator.

Safety of the family is one of the most important factors to consider especially in choosing a family car. The 2017 Lincoln Navigator is equipped with safety antilock disc brakes, stability and traction control, trailer sway control, front-seat side airbags, three-row side curtain airbags, and a post-crash alert system.
