Lincoln Aviator 2019 revealed


Recommended Posts

Beautiful. They nailed the rear 3/4 view. Everything about the lines and the details looks well thought-out; I think this is the first Lincoln reveal where I have not found something questionable or compromised in the styling. Overall, I liked the Nautilus quite a bit when it was revealed, but it looks a little dated now if you compare these two side-by-side.

 

Lincoln has done a much better job integrating the side badging sweep. It looks less tacked on than on the Continental and Nautilus, and I like how it angles up to correspond with the mirror. These are the little details that will make the Aviator stand out next to the competition.

To be fair, Nautilus' badge literally was tacked onto the existing MKX body panels.

Please don't mess-up the headroom in the 3rd row ! I won't be interested if that's designed for under 5 feet passengers.

As of about a year ago the roofline had a slightly sharper rake to it, which even in a drawing looked like it would leave little room in the third row. They clearly addressed that at some point without compromising the original design too much.
