2027 Lincoln Aviator Overview
The 2027 Aviator is Lincoln's midsize three-row SUV: about 10 inches shorter than a Navigator, and still rated to tow 5,000 pounds. Every Aviator runs a twin-turbo 3.0-liter V6 and comes with four years of BlueCruise. Rear-wheel drive is standard on Premiere and Reserve, and all-wheel drive is available. Our Spokane team on North Foothills Drive can put you in one.

2027 Aviator Updates
The Aviator carries over its body, engine and cabin for 2027. Lincoln's changes are mostly about color and protection:
- Three new paint colors: Asher Gray, Avalanche Gray and Ruby Red
- Lincoln Security Package available, with four years included
- A solid roof is now offered on Premiere
Engine and Drivetrain
The Aviator uses a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 with 415 lb-ft of torque and a 10-speed SelectShift automatic. Lincoln rates it at 400 horsepower and notes that Aviators sold in some states, which it calls Green States, are rated at 383. Lincoln quotes 0 to 60 mph in 5.9 seconds.
| Rear-wheel drive | All-wheel drive | |
|---|---|---|
| Availability | Standard on Premiere and Reserve | Optional on Premiere and Reserve, standard on Black Label |
| EPA estimate (city/hwy/combined) | 17/25/20 mpg | 17/24/20 mpg |
| Curb weight | 4,745 lbs | 4,862 lbs |
If you're weighing all-wheel drive for winter driving around Spokane, the mileage cost is small: Lincoln's highway estimate drops by one mpg and the combined number doesn't change.
Room for Six or Seven
Premiere comes standard with second-row captain's chairs for six. Reserve can be ordered with a 35/30/35 second-row bench that makes it seven. Every Aviator has a 50/50 PowerFold third row.
| Measurement | 2027 Aviator |

| Length | 199.7 in |
| Wheelbase | 119.1 in |
| Cargo behind third row | 16.5 cu ft |
| Cargo behind second row | 39.9 cu ft |
| Cargo behind first row | 75.9 cu ft |
| Third-row legroom | 29.2 in |
That third row suits kids and short trips. If adults ride back there often, compare it with the 2027 Navigator.
Technology and Driver Assist
The Lincoln Digital Experience runs on a 13.2-inch center touchscreen and a 12.4-inch digital cluster, with Google apps and services built in.
