2012 Lincoln Navigator

Lincoln earned the ranking of top brand in the 2011 Vehicle Dependability Study recently conducted by J.D. Power and Associates. Lincoln was just recognized as the leading luxury brand in vehicle satisfaction by AutoPacific in its 15th annual Vehicle Satisfaction Awards. The awards are industry benchmarks for measuring how satisfied an owner is with his or her new vehicle. The study summarizes input from more than 68,000 new vehicle owners. The innovations that have helped Lincoln earn such accolades keep coming. The new Navigator, for example, offers Lincoln SYNC AppLink, a software application that gives Lincoln SYNC users hands-free voice control of select smartphone apps. The 2012 model year marks the first time AppLink has been available for Lincoln. The Lincoln Navigator exudes strength and confidence with an unmistakable exterior design and styling package. Details set it apart. Consider the power-deployable running boards that slide out from under the vehicle when a door is opened as just one example of the level of detail offered by Navigator. The interior design of the 2012 Lincoln Navigator blends function and form. Quality abounds throughout the interior, with olive ash and walnut swirl wood accents on the front and rear doors, the instrument panel and Steering wheel, and alloy and burnished bronze accents located on the center stack, door trim, beverage holder rings and gear shifter. The Navigator has exceptionally comfortable seats that enhance interior refinement and include a stitched Lincoln Star logo on each first-row head restraint. The seats are plush yet firm, with soft cushions, and are designed to enhance comfort by reducing vibration through the floor. The 2012 Lincoln Navigator features 103.3 cubic feet behind the first row, 54.4 cubic feet behind the second row and 18.1 cubic feet behind the third row along with an under-floor cargo compartment for stowing various items. Power comes from a quiet and smooth 5.4-liter SOHC V8 engine that produces 310 horsepower at 5,100 rpm and 365 lb.-ft. of torque at 3,600 rpm when running on regular gasoline. The engine provides confident power to accelerate effortlessly to cruising speed and at the same time has powerful low-end capability for maximum towing capacity when properly equipped. A smooth-shifting six-speed transmission provides smooth and precise shifts. Lincoln offers complimentary maintenance for the first four years/50,000 miles in service.
