2024 Lincoln Navigator: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026
The biggest change for the 2024 Lincoln Navigator is that four-wheel drive became standard on every trim. Otherwise, it is a light final-year update rather than a redesign.
About the 2024 Lincoln Navigator
4th generation (2018-2024), final year; the major mid-cycle update occurred for 2022.
Lincoln positions the Navigator as a full-size, three-row luxury SUV built around quiet comfort, generous passenger space, strong towing ability, and relaxed long-distance travel. Its twin-turbo V6 supplies substantial power without a V8, while standard and long-wheelbase bodies address family and cargo needs. The model’s defining strengths are its spacious cabin, power-folding rear seats, comfort-focused suspension, and technology designed to reduce effort in a very large SUV.
The Premiere serves as the well-equipped foundation, with a 440-hp twin-turbo V6, a 13.2-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and heated and ventilated seats in the first two rows. Reserve adds touches such as a panoramic roof, leather seating, and a head-up display. Black Label is the most fully equipped version, with 30-way massaging front seats and a 28-speaker Revel audio system.

2024 Lincoln Navigator Reviews
What owners are saying about the 2024 Lincoln Navigator.
4.3
2024 Lincoln Navigator
(39 reviews)
“Be concerned about glitches in the technology. I have been very disappointed with some of the technology glitches from the back liftgate malfunctioning, to interior lighting not working, to Apple CarPlay interaction issues compared to other models.”
“It's a great SUV for towing and has a better, more comfortable interior than a Cadillac Escalade. It does not have all of the latest Lincoln technology (it has an older version of Blue Cruise) which is unbelievable because it's the flagship of the brand.”
