The Lincoln Aviator is a special kind of car called a luxury sport utility vehicle, or SUV. It's known for being very comfortable and having lots of space. This car has three rows of seats, which means it can carry many passengers.

The first Lincoln Aviator models were made between 2003 and 2005. Later, a new version came out for the 2020 model year. This newer Aviator is a five-door crossover SUV. It is built in Chicago, Illinois, in the United States.

What is the Lincoln Aviator?

The Lincoln Aviator is a fancy SUV that combines comfort with power. It's designed to give drivers and passengers a smooth ride. Because it's a "crossover" SUV, it often feels more like driving a regular car than a big truck.

Aviator's Design and Features

The Aviator looks sleek and modern. It has a powerful engine that helps it drive smoothly. Inside, you'll find many cool features that make trips more enjoyable. These can include comfortable seats, advanced sound systems, and screens for navigation.

Engine Power and Performance

The Lincoln Aviator uses a special engine called a 3.0 L EcoBoost V6. This engine is "twin-turbocharged," which means it has extra parts that help it create more power. This makes the Aviator strong enough for different kinds of driving. It also has a 10-speed automatic transmission, which helps the car shift gears very smoothly.

Where the Aviator is Made

Most Lincoln Aviator cars for the American market are put together in Chicago, Illinois. This factory is called the Chicago Assembly plant. Some Aviators are also made in Chongqing, China, for other parts of the world.

Sharing with the Ford Explorer

The Lincoln Aviator is built on the same base, or "platform," as the Ford Explorer. This means they share some of the same underlying parts and engineering. However, the Aviator is designed to be more luxurious and offer a different driving experience.
