You won’t miss a V-8 in the Lincoln Navigator.- The Car Connection

The 2021 Lincoln Navigator is powered by a 3.5L turbocharged V6 engine. The same engine was also used in the 2020 model and makes 450 bhp and 510 lb-ft of peak torque. This powertrain comes mated to a 10-speed automatic transmission and delivers the power to the wheels via the standard AWD drivetrain. Though the engine has remained the same, the brand has said that it has tweaked the engine for better throttle response. 

The improvement in throttle response becomes evident in the 0-60 mph run where the 2021 Lincoln Navigator puts in a time of 5.9 seconds. The quarter-mile performance is also similar since that takes 14.5-seconds to be completed. The 2021 Lincoln Navigator L, despite the additional weight and size, is surprisingly faster by going from 0-60 mph in 5.6 seconds.

There are 7 drive modes available on the 2021 Navigator, namely, Slippery, Excite, Conserve, Deep Conditions, Normal, 4x4, and Slow Climb. The predecessors had 6 modes, and the Slow Climb mode is the latest addition to the list. Each mode has a different throttle and steering response, and overall driving dynamics which make the driving manners of the 2021 Lincoln Navigator as sublime as its predecessors.

Though the Ford Expedition is one of the most powerful, it is the slowest in the acceleration front. The BMW X7 is only marginally more powerful than the Ford but manages to take the top spot in the 0-60 mph and quarter-mile, bumping the Navigator to the second place in terms of accelerating off the line. The Cadillac Escalade is the least powerful but still manages to perform better than the Ford Expedition.

Being a vehicle of this class and size, the fuel efficiency figures of the 2021 Lincoln Navigator are decent. The car gets a claimed fuel economy of 16 MPG for city usage while the highway economy figures stand at 21 MPG. This translates to a combined fuel economy of 18 MPG. In real-world usage, many individual testers have also claimed to get a city economy as low as 13 MPG. 

The 2021 Lincoln Navigator comes with a standard fuel tank capacity of 23.2-gallons. This allows it to offer a total combined range of 417.6 miles and tops out at 487.2 miles of range on the highway. Despite being the higher priced sibling to the Ford Expedition with the same engine, the MPG figures of the Lincoln Navigator are considerably low.

The fuel economy figures of the BMW X7 are exceptional in our list of competitors. Surprisingly, the Ford Expedition ranks second in the fuel economy section followed by the Navigator in the third. The fuel efficiency of the Escalade is sub-par despite the low-performance aspects.

The Navigator’s a sleek and attractive SUV from the outside and embraces its size, no apologies, and it wins.-  The Car Connection

The 2021 Lincoln Navigator carries a handsome design with a bold and aggressive-looking front. The large grille at the front, the large set LED headlamp design with dual DRLs, and the bulky hood complements the overall design of the car. If you compare the 2021 Navigator to the previous generation, the design took a massive leap forward both in terms of visual appeal and luxury. 

Move to the side, and the 20-inch (Standard) or 22-inch (Reserve and Black Label) aluminum alloy wheels come into full display. The wheels have a unique design, unlike anything you might have come across so far, striking the perfect balance between style and class. The silhouette is humongous, thanks to the 212-inch length and 76.3-inch height. Furthermore, from the side, the windows almost cut the car into two separate halves.

Compared to the adversaries, the Lincoln Navigator is certainly the heftiest, but it is also the longest. The Cadillac Escalade comes close both in terms of weight and length. The height of all of the rides is the same except for the BMW X7 which is actually the most compactly built. The Bimmer is not nearly as long or wide and is also one of the lightest along with the Ford Expedition which is just 2 lbs lighter. 

The rear end of the 2021 Lincoln Navigator might remind you of the eyes of Robocop probably, but in a good way. The LED Taillamps run from end to end with chrome details and dual exhaust outlets. All of this comes together very cohesively to form a spectacular road presence. Some of the notable features of the exterior of the 2021 Navigator are:

• 20/22-inch aluminum-alloy wheels
• Adaptive, Automatic On/Off LED Headlamps
• LED Taillamps
• LED DRLs
• Active Grille Shutters
• Illuminated Lincoln Star in Grille
• Illuminated Power-Deployable Running Boards
• Dual Exhaust with Chrome Tips
• Hands-Free Liftgate
• Chrome accents on body panels
• "Navigator" badging

The Navigator’s good in a crash.- The Car Connection

The 2021 Lincoln Navigator shares its underlying platform with the Ford Expedition, and the previous-generation Ford F-150. The chassis construction style is a body-on-frame style. Thanks to this great build quality, the ride procured a perfect 5-star rating in the crash tests conducted by the NHTSA. 

The IIHS has not rated the Navigator since its generational change in 2018. If and when that does happen, we expect the Lincoln Navigator to perform well. In 2020, the Lincoln Co-Pilot360 was added as standard to the ride which helped make it safer than it already was. The standout safety features of the 2021 Lincoln Navigator are:

• Blind Spot Assist with Rear Cross Traffic Alert
• Four-wheel disc anti-lock brake system (ABS)
• Driver and front-passenger Dual Stage airbags
• Brake and Engine-Actuated Traction control
• Rearview camera with washer
• LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tether Anchors for Children)
• SOS Post-Crash Alert System
• Crash Severity Sensors
• Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking.

The 2021 BMW X7 provides a premium and comfortable interior along with great build quality.

2021 Lincoln Navigator Vs 2021 Ford Expedition
