- The Jet Package in the Aviator looks sharp! When you pair that with either the black or white exterior it really makes this luxury SUV pop. Under the hood of the 2023 Lincoln Aviator you're going to find the 3.0L turbocharged engine, with the option for a plugin hybrid that introduces a nano electric motor that greatly improves the performance.
The Aviator is relatively unchanged from the 2022 to the 2023 model. There are a few color changes, LED fogs being optional across some trims and the option to have the HUD removed at the factory. In this video you're going to learn everything that you need to know about the Lincoln Aviator. I take you through the exterior features, interior tech and so much more!

Excellent tour and review! Thanks
You're welcome!
I’ve watched a bunch of videos, as I am nearing a decision on buying the black label. I saw the car in person yesterday and was apprehensive because of the electric door issue. Just felt like it was a safety hazard. After watching roughly 15-videos, yours is the first that actually addresses my concern.
Very well done. Thorough yet quick.
I wish we had the Black Label trim in Canada so I could review that! Glad that my video helped you figure out the one thing about the door too. Appreciate the kind words, thanks!
Except only the driver's door has this release! That was a primary reason for our moving into another car. Too bad because I'm gunna miss that awesome Revel stereo!!!
Great coverage. Best vehicle report ever experienced.
Thank you!
Great description on how to employ all the features of this beautiful vehicle. Can't wait until April when I get mine!
Glad the video helped you learn a thing or two and exciting about the new ride! Is it the first time you’ll own a Lincoln?
@@CarsWithSteve yes! This will be my first ever luxury vehicle.
That's exciting, hopefully you love the new ride!
I am in heaven! Absolutely love it!!
CONGRATULATIONS ! EXELENT VIDEO. SUPER COMPLETE OF EVERYTHING ANY PERSON WANTS TO KNOW ABOUT THE LINCOLN AVIATOR
Thanks so much Ismael, appreciate that!
Great informative video Steve! 👍 It's to the point and thorough 😊
Thank you!
Well deserved! You're welcome😊
This suv is beautiful 😍
Yes it is! Can't wait for an interior update to Sync4 but otherwise Lincoln has done a great job
You do a very good review😊I like how you do details better than the sales person, Thank You!!
Thanks so much Carol and you're welcome!
Hey Steve! great review on the features of this aviator. I left a message on one of your other videos about purchasing one. Well I picked up a 2023 Lincoln Aviation fully loaded with illumination package and more. This video has helped me in getting to know how the vehicle works. Thanks a bunch!!
Hey Barb, thought the name looked familiar! Exciting about the new Aviator and you're welcome. How are you enjoying it so far?
@@CarsWithSteve I am in love with my new Aviator. Absolutey love it!!
Great to hear. Hope the new ride treats you well!
@@CarsWithSteve have had my aviator exactly 20 days, and I am still learning about it. I saw your video about opening the windows and I am amazed.
Great review, I really love the aviator kinda torn between the aviator and the 2023 grand Cherokee high altitude, read the aviator 2024 is coming out with more features, any idea on when the next aviator maybe out?
Thanks Akintunde! That's a tricky choice - the Grand Cherokee Summit trim would be pretty loaded in comparison.
The Aviator is on track to get an upgrade, just not sure if it's coming in the 2024 or 2025 model though. The newer Aviator should have a redesigned interior and the better Sync4 media screen when it does get the upgrade though.
Great review Steve. My and I have wondered why Lincoln would give every other SUV in its lineup Sync 4 before what we consider to be their best vehicle. My wife has wanted one since it debuted, but has passed on it each model year because the Sync 4 in her Bronco with wireless Android Auto and Apple Car Play is worth the rough ride. And to think the Aviator was just launched in 2020. Sync 3 never belonged in this vehicle with all its promise. I do have a question. How do you send navigation directions from your cell phone using the Ford/Lincoln App to the navigation screen? We have vehicles with both Sync 3 and 4 and it does not work as advertised.
Thanks Brandon! Haha, I was thinking the same thing about the media screen. Sync4 was a concept when the Aviator was first launched so it makes sense that it wasn't launched with it available. I'm hoping that we'll see it in the 2024 model though!
I haven't played around with the Lincoln Way app much but it's on the list of videos to shoot over the next few weeks. I'll make sure to add in a quick look at the nav pushing between the app and car
Great video - I have a Black Lable - very similar. Question, do you know how the Noise Cancelation works ? For example - what are the small screens in the roof above each of the 4 seats ? It is about 4" by 2" ? Is there anyway to see if Noise cancelation is working ?
Thanks! The noise cancellation in Lincoln vehicles works a bit differently than ANC in headphones.. In cars it uses the microphones in the cabin to pick up noises and then sends opposing sound waves that cancels it out or reduces the noise you hear. It's an always on feature! The Black Label has the upgraded 28 speaker Revel audio system, so I believe the panels you're talking about are just speakers!
ТУПО ЗАНОС ГОДА! Красава братик) рад что ты все еще поднимаешься)
Спасибо
The thing I like about the Ebony/Roast interior is it has a dark headliner. The Ebony has a very light colored one that I don't really like.
Yes! The darker one looks way better in comparison
Matthew McConaughey would be proud. 🥹
Alright alright alright
Hi Steve, can you please tell me if fixing the side steps in the aviator would affect the sensors in the side of the door. I'm actively considering installing after market side steps
The Aviator has side steps available from the factory so just make sure they're installed properly and you shouldn't have any issues!
Thanks for that suggestion, those are crazy expensive here in the middle east @@CarsWithSteve
Exquisite details, Steve. A lot to like but those shiny chrome buttons and toggles look super cheap IMO. Why not give them a satin finish? It would look much more elegant. I think the TV I had in college was about the size of that dash display. Too big for the dash of an auto.
Thanks so much! There should be an upgrade coming in the next year or two. You may not like the new design of the media screen if Lincoln takes it where I think it's going. Look at the system for the 2022 Navigator / Mustang Mach E
Will sync 4 be able work on the 2023 aviator?
Unfortunately not.. The Ford equivalent is getting an upgrade for 2024 which means that the Aviator should be seeing some changes too
Really appreciate the walkthroughs Steve. I'm loving the 2020 version I bought earlier this year. A couple of annoyances (the lock button on the door is VERY finicky and I've gotten sunglasses wedged in the holder somehow?) But otherwise operates fantastically and have gotten lots of compliments. Looking forward to the 3 row EV equivalent
You're welcome Jordan! Glad that you're loving the Aviator so far. Haha always going to be one or two things that bug you! I haven't heard the door lock button one before.. curious what you mean by finicky 🤔
Should have something to look at during upcoming auto shows for the next gen Lincoln EV!
@@CarsWithSteve with the lock button on the door by the number pad, in my experience you have to be ultra precise in a very specific spot to get the doors to lock. I've stood there trying to press it for a minute or 2 like a buffoon. If you have any tips for using it properly I'd love to hear!
@@CarsWithSteve thanks! Looking forward to the updates for 24 as well. My wife really wants a Black Label. Also while Sync 4 is much better than Sync 3, we have lost the the ability to rewind live radio. Sync 4 only allows you to skip segments or start a show over (still pretty cool) Also gone is the ability to get fuel prices, movie showtime and theater information, weather, and sports scores all in one place.
The updates to the 2023 Corsair look promising, so I'm assuming Hands Free driving is also coming to the Aviator. I have Blue Cruise in my 2021 F150 Limited and I am enjoying it. Need those lane change updates though like the Corsair will ship with installed.
@@jordans9663 Hmm.. I'll have a look next time I'm in an Aviator!
@@MrBklewis77 anytime! I didn't even realize the rewind live was missing in Sync4! Going to have to double check that next time I'm in a car with that system. Fuel prices, weather etc were part of SiriusXM travel link which unfortunately went away with Sync4.
I'm expecting the upgrade for the Aviator to come next year and it would be great to see Hands Free in the full Lincoln lineup!
Do you find that you use Blue Cruise often?
My aviator standard does not have adaptive cruise control, which absolutely my fault. I didn’t know that until two or three days into ownership. It has all the sensors and emergency braking that we cannot get to operate yet?
IS there a way that I can have them install or upload ADAPTIVE Cruise control?
The adaptive cruise has a camera in the rearview mirror assembly as well.. but there isn't an easy way to just add in adaptive cruise aftermarket. Steering wheel needs to be replaced, there's additional wiring and programming
@@CarsWithSteve 😞😞😞thank you sir❤️🔥🇺🇸
It is still one of the top five cars I’ve ever owned like riding in your recliner. What a beautiful car. 🔥🔥🌹🇺🇸
Great to hear that you're enjoying it otherwise! Is it the first time owning a Lincoln as well?
It would've been nice to show the drive modes when you did the cluster dive. I know about them but for people who don't. 9/10 on the video, great explanation.
Great suggestion!
The more I see these cars the more I am leaning to a BMW X7. For a little more money you are getting a well built car and better of everything.
The 2023 X7 costs close to 50% more than the Aviator.. . It does have more engine potential but the cost of ownership is higher looking at maintenance and the X7 needs premium fuel
How do you keep up the manufacture warranty with lincoln Aviator, and is that the extended warranty your talking about.
Make sure you perform regularly scheduled maintenance and change your oil at regular intervals. You can extend the manufacturers warranty for basic and powertrain at time of purchase and up to (I believe) just before the end of the basic warranty period with an inspection. Pre-paid maintenance plans can be purchased from the selling dealer as well
@@CarsWithSteve Do you know how Long that extended warranty thats for everything last and where can you find the information explaining all the warranties thats from factory.
The Lincoln Canada / USA website have basic information about what's covered but for extending the warranty chat with the dealer who sold you the vehicle. Extended warranties can last for up to 8 years, with varying coverage for mileage
@@CarsWithSteve thank you
@@CarsWithSteve Thanks
Does really exist a difference on passengers space, specially on the third seat row, between Aviator and Navigator ??
There's a bit more room in the 3rd row of the Navigator.. but the other thing to consider is that the Navigator is 3 seats in the 3rd row vs 2 seats in the Aviator
@@CarsWithSteve Thank you !!
anytime!
Hello, this car also has a height adjustment system

Yes it does - the Air Glide Suspension is optional and helps with cargo and ride hide, plus it makes the drive smoother
Loving your videos but dude, that quasi-"massage" is horrible!!! Nothing but a few airbags in the seat and lower back that don't do much more than make you want to use the restroom...:) Plus after an hour or so you realize the seat bottoms are a bit narrow and you are sitting on the hard edge of the plastic base and it begins to get uncomfortable! Other than that we loved this car. Wait, could use memory on passenger seat and manual door release on ALL doors, not just the drive. But super comfy, great ride, plenty of power and that Revel audio is amazing!! You could do worse..:)
Thanks Steve! Still not liking that massage seat eh :P I was hoping with a bit more time it would groove in a bit more. Good that you're enjoying it otherwise though!
How does this compare to the 2023 Jeep Cherokee 4XE
That'd be a good compare video, I'll add it to the list!
Space wise, they're fairly close and they have similar feature sets. The 4xE has slightly more electric range than the Aviator PHEV but the Aviator has significantly more combined horsepower and torque.
Both have air suspension, with it standard in the Grand Cherokee and optional in the Aviator
@@CarsWithSteve Appreciate it cause I'm thinking about getting one I like the Cherokee a little better but
Working on the outline for it now. Probably be able to fit it into the upload schedule late February!
That's awesome i'm excited
Does driving on conserve mode saves gas?
Not much but it would give a small amount of fuel savings in comparison to Excite
Ok thank you haven't tried excite mode yet. Going out of state this week and may have to try for 1st time. Thanks again.
Ok thank you haven't tried excite mode yet. Going out of state this week and may have to try for 1st time. Thanks again.
you're welcome! Safe travels
Ппц ты тип конечно) просто лютейшие завозы ловишь здесь😅
Still on no sale recall?
Sale recall for the 360 camera is lifted. 2023 units that are getting delivered to dealerships now are good to go and recalled vin units have a fix shipping to dealers
Could not see the ambient lighting
It might be because the switch is off! Make sure the lights on the switch by your left knee are turned to the auto setting or flip it to the top to turn it on!
If it's not visible, in the Sync3 media screen under Ambient Light make sure that the light color is selected and moved to the very top
23?
Yes
Shifter - looks cheap. I miss the column on the 2016 MKZ and MKC. The side by side buttons already look dated and old. It's like they are designing for a retirement home.
Media Screen - I hate the Ipad look.... the old layout looked remarkably better!
Ambient Lighting - the animation is trash, I miss the circle animation
Adjusting the seat on the door vs the side of the seat - ergonomically annoying
Armrest - should slide forward and backwards
Panoramic Sunroof - You should be able to open and close it all the way with a double press
Steering wheel - the buttons look terrible, clicking the button to see the buttons is annoying, it should have heat sensing so when I swipe it it should automatically show the buttons. Then you can only push the buttons from the back, that's irritating! I'd like to be able to at minimum be able to press from both sides as I prefer to press buttons from the front.
I HATE the video-game thumb joysticks on the steering wheel it looks so dated!
The voice button is annoying. I liked it better when it was reachable with my thumb at the bottom of the steering wheel.
If they threw this away and brought back the 2016 steering wheel I'd be so Happy!
Volume knobs - I miss the sliders from the 2016 as well
AC vents - because of the ugly Ipad cheap looking screen (copying everyone else rather than remaining Lincoln) they have to use small ugly air vents. If they brought back the previous screen the vents looked alot better.
The up and down rocker for the temp looks cheap!!!
Cup holders - they brought back the 2011 cup holder cover!!!! They look terrible and dated! I'm so mad about this.
The cover that hides them away looks terrible...
The knob to change drive modes looks like they are copying so many other manufacturers...
I don't even like that placement.
I prefer changing the driving mode via the steering wheel.
There's a sport button on the column shifter.
Then you can control Comfort or Excite mode via the steering wheel.
I've been waiting 3 years to buy a new car... they keep screwing things up and making cars worse... I've been wanting a Lincoln but if they don't fix things I'll have to buy from somewhere else.
They use the same cheap looking Ipad as everyone else... so there's not much keeping me with them at this point.
They don't understand their sales numbers would have been better if they simply hired better marketing people.
Their commercials never sold the car, they think McConnahey in front of a cow is going to make young people run out and love the beautiful designs of Lincoln, or will they continue thinking it's an old persons car....
So the design team takes the fall and begins making unnecessary changes when they should have simply put the designs like the column shifter and the center storage on the MKZ.
Marketing cars has always been interesting.. I don't get why most manufacturers think that the old school TV ads have any impact on people's purchasing decisions. It makes me shake my head when I see how much they spend on campaigns like that vs utilizing real world marketing like the videos put out on UA-cam/social media
The Aviator should be going through a shakeup in either 2024 or 2025 as it moves into electrification. Haven't seen any of the mockups yet but if you look at the Lincoln USA website, check out the Star concept. It's most likely going to look like that on the refresh
Get with the times Marcus. I know you think everything has to remain similar to your boomer generation. Unfortunately for you, it’s called evolution, produced by million dollar minds and engineers. Sorry MARCUS, but everything you complained about is actually better than your plastic behind the steering wheel buttons.
Я тоже хотел делать такие видео, но блин по сравнению с твоими наверное это будет полный шлак))
Взгляните на мои ранние видео, я прогрессирую и с каждым разом становлюсь лучше. Начните с малого и продвигайтесь вверх!
Still that same shitty Sync3. It is hot garbage. Nice car though.
It's not that bad but definitely needs to get the Sync4 upgrade. I think Lincoln may hold off until for Sync4 Android OS to upgrade, so most likely 2024/2025 model
I have sync 3 in f150 and it is awful. Glitchy, slow to process, all out failure (I e start the car and it doesn't turn on until turning the car off and back on). It's the one thing holding me back on this car
