The 2025 Lincoln Aviator is a luxury SUV with comfortable seating for up to seven people and the top performance and style you expect in a Lincoln. We're going to look at some of its many exciting features. Multiple Drive Modes The Drive Mode dial on the center console allows you to tailor your vehicle's response. There are five modes to choose from. Normal Mode is the default setting, providing a comfortable and responsive experience under everyday conditions. Conserve Mode maximizes fuel efficiency and extends your range by reducing the demands of power-hungry systems, softens suspension and steering response, and allows the transmission to shift earlier to reduce fuel consumption. Excite Mode gives you sportier performance by firming the suspension, slower gear shifting to increase acceleration response, and improving throttle response. Slippery Mode is designed for wet, muddy, or icy conditions and supplies increased traction control to improve control and handling. The final mode, Deep Conditions, is useful in deep snow or mud and prevents the wheels from losing traction on these surfaces. BlueCruise This feature allows hands-free driving on compatible highways, known as Blue Zones. You activate it by first activating Adaptive Cruise Control and Lane Centering. These driver assistance safety features let you select your driving speed and following distance from other vehicles, and keep you centered in your lane. Once these systems are active, in a Blue Zone, the instrument panel will turn blue to let you know you can take your hands off the wheel. BlueCruise will steer your vehicle, accelerating or braking as needed to get you to your destination. A tiny camera monitors your eye and head positions, and provides audio and visual alerts if you appear distracted or tired. These alerts warn you to take control of your Lincoln. If you don't respond, the system will automatically disengage. Your Lincoln will slow to 3 to 5 mph for safety, and a loud audio tone will repeat until you take control of the wheel. Lincoln Co-Pilot360 Drive 2.0 The safety of you and your passengers is very important to Lincoln, which is why every Lincoln Aviator includes Co-Pilot360, a suite of advanced driver assistance and safety systems designed to keep you safe on the road. They use sensors, cameras, and radar to monitor the area around you for potential danger. These systems use audible and visual warnings to alert you to accident risks so you can avoid them. Some of these systems, like Automatic Emergency Braking, will actively intervene to prevent a collision by applying hard braking. These are just a handful of the Lincoln Aviator's exciting features.

The 2025 Lincoln Aviator is comfortable, stylish, and luxurious. Its powerful engine and meticulously designed and engineered systems deliver the top-level performance you expect from a Lincoln. These high-quality systems require servicing and maintenance to continue to provide this performance, as even Lincoln components will eventually wear out. As your Lincoln dealer, we want to give you a few examples of the types of maintenance we provide. Examples of Maintenance for Your 2025 Lincoln Aviator Available at Your Lincoln Dealer Oil Replacement Your Aviator has a 3.0L V6 in-turbocharged engine, and it uses high-quality 5W-30 synthetic oil. Synthetic oil lasts longer and can withstand higher temperatures than regular oil. It's pumped through the engine by the oil pump, covering countless engine components in a protective coating that reduces friction. It also contains specialized additives that protect against rust, keep your engine clean, and break down potential blockages. Synthetic oil will become less effective over time as it thickens and slows down due to the accumulation of dirt and other minute debris absorbed in its travels through the engine. Thick, slow-moving oil increases wear and tear on engine components and could even block the oil filter, causing engine damage. To prevent these problems, we drain and replace your oil and install a new oil filter, and this is performed every 7,500 to 10,000 miles. more Battery Testing The battery's most important job is to start your engine. It sends a strong electrical charge to the starter solenoid when you hit the start button. This charge powers up the solenoid, causing the starter to crank the engine and begin the combustion process. Once the engine runs, a mini generator called the alternator will start to recharge the battery. The chemicals inside a battery that allow it to store electricity gradually break down. This reduces its storage capacity, and the engine will take longer to start. On average, a battery will wear out and need replacement after three to five years. We recommend regular battery testing, starting in a battery's third year. Our computerized battery tester can easily identify a weak battery, and we can quickly replace it for you. Air Filter Replacement Combustion requires huge quantities of air, but this air must be clean, as dirt or other particles can damage sensitive engine components. Air flows in through the radiator grille and passes into the engine air filter. This filter traps dust and other debris, allowing the clean air to pass into the intake manifold, where it mixes with the fuel. The air filter will eventually become clogged with dirt, restricting airflow into the engine. If this happens, the engine will misfire or stall due to a lack of air. The filter is usually replaced every 30,000 miles to prevent this problem. Book your next maintenance today by contacting us at Bayway Lincoln in Houston, TX. Image Via

Lincoln is synonymous with luxury, so it's no surprise the 2025 Lincoln Aviator and the Nautilus both deliver sleek styling, premium comfort, and extreme versatility. However, each of these outstanding SUVs is designed to meet the differing needs of Houston drivers. We look at some of the differences between the 2025 Lincoln Nautilus and the new Aviator. Comparing the 2025 Lincoln Aviator and the 2025 Lincoln Nautilus Passenger Capacity The most noticeable difference between these Lincoln SUVs is their size. Measuring 193.2 inches, the Nautilus is the smaller of the two, making it the ideal runaround for a family of five. Front passengers enjoy 43.5 inches of legroom while the bench seating in the rear slides back and forth to expand the second-row legroom to a very generous 43.1 inches. In contrast, the Aviator's 199.3-inch body is great for larger families as it offers a larger cabin with three rows to accommodate up to seven passengers. Although second-row occupants don't have quite as much legroom as in the Nautilus, they enjoy ample head, hip, and shoulder room. Those sitting in the third row each receive 50% of the seat, giving them plenty of room to spread out. more Cargo Space Even with its spacious cabin, the Nautilus still boasts a substantial 36.4 cubic foot trunk. Folding down the rear seatbacks extends this area to 71.3 cubic feet. Because it has a third row, the Aviator's regular trunk holds 18.3 cubic feet of gear. However, flexible seating gives you multiple ways to configure the interior depending on your needs. Collapse the third row for an additional 23.5 cubic feet or fold the second row too to open up the cargo area to 77.7 cubic feet. Performance The Nautilus is built for speed and agility thanks to its all-wheel drive layout, eight-speed automatic transmission, and turbocharged 2.0-liter I-4 engine. This sporty powertrain delivers 250 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque. At the Aviator's heart is a rear-wheel-drive setup, an automatic 10-speed SelectShift transmission, and a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V6. As a result, this large SUV puts in a more powerful performance, producing a class-leading 400 ponies and 415 pound-feet of torque. Fuel Economy Even with its mighty V6, the Aviator achieves a very respectable EPA-estimated 21 mpg combined highway/city fuel efficiency. The engine also features auto stop/start technology to help preserve fuel when driving in traffic. With its slightly smaller engine, the Nautilus is the more efficient of the two models, making 21 mpg around the city and 29 mpg when cruising on the highway. Both the Aviator and the Nautilus deliver practicality, performance, and comfort in a luxurious package, so choosing between them will come down to your individual needs.
