The Lincoln Navigator (pictured | configuration |inquire for a price) (Nautilus), a name that instantly reminds me of The Nautilus, the Nautilus, which accompanied the protagonists around the world in Verne's Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea, with its powerful and sturdy Nautilus. It's no coincidence that such a name is not a coincidence, but are the Lincoln Navigators also like the Nautilus, with a strong physique and advanced technology, and can carry an ambition to conquer the Fury Sea? This time, "One Circle of Cars" test-drove the Lincoln Navigator in the depth of the beautiful Sanya and found the answer from it.

Appearance: calm and powerful, exquisite with heritage
The front of the Lincoln Navigator adopts the design of the navigator and the pilot, and the vertical strip Lincoln Star Beacon shape of the dot-matrix forward grille effectively increases the visual thickness of the front, making the entire front face appear calm and not dull. The thick front of the car gives people a calm and powerful feeling, like a low-key, strong, and relatively burly prime-aged man, which may be in line with the characteristics of its target customers.
Speaking of through-type taillights, in recent years, it has frequently appeared on some large-size luxury-oriented models, such as the BMW 7 Series, Audi A8, Porsche Cayenne and so on. As everyone knows, Lincoln played with the through-type taillights on the Lincoln continent as early as the 60s, which can be said to be the originator of this design. The Lincoln Navigator's maximum size of 4849/1934/1693mm in its class complements the design of the through-line taillights handed down 60 years ago. Even if it is closer to the taillight, the light will not have the slightest dazzling feeling, but will feel warm and delicate, inheriting the history and achieving the refinement of the times.
The presidential edition's unique diamond blue finish, dot-matrix front grille, and visually stunning turbofan 21-inch largest rim of its class and Presidential tail marker raise the styling of the entire series to a whole new height.
Interior: No bells and whistles, only real materials
The new generation of Lincoln Navigators, written by the famous American architect Frank Lloyd Wright, adopts the "horizon" design language, a large number of horizontal flat lines, stretching the visual width of the car, plus the width of the car 1934mm, you will even feel a little "distance" from the co-pilot door. However, this "sense of distance" is the kind that can produce beauty.
We can see that the entire interior material of the Lincoln Navigator is very solid, the upper and middle of the instrument table are coated with plastic and leather, the filling is soft and thick, and even the bottom of the center console and the surface of the co-pilot glove box are soft materials, which feel excellent.
Both the centre console and the door panel have a metal trim with a pattern similar to the geneva pattern of a mechanical watch, and the details are really full. All four door panels of the car are equipped with midrange and bass speakers, and everything within reach is either leather or soft. Compared with the efforts of a number of German opponents in terms of shape and design, the satisfaction brought by this kind of real material stacking is unmatched by any exquisite workmanship and styling design.
Lincoln brand seats have also been a major highlight. The Savannah semi-aniline leather seat from North America, only 10% of the leather source can be screened, and only half of the ordinary leather is translucent and clear, which is a "breathing leather." The presidential version of the model is made of Eagle Ottawa's specially customized Venetian top semi-aniline leather, in short, it is more delicate, more environmentally friendly, more wear-resistant, and of course, it will be very expensive. It also supports 22-way adjustment of the main co-pilot, as well as ventilation and heating, and even massage.
Lincoln Navigators introduced the "Light Bay Blue" interior for the first time, inspired by luxury yachts at Miami Marina. On the Sanya Roundabout Highway against the background of blue sea and blue sky, the "navigator" driving a "shallow bay blue" interior drives on the beautiful ring road, which is perfect for the scene. If you travel through the city, you will surely be reminded of the time when you are on a beach holiday, accompanied by cool breezes, blue oceans and sand dunes.
The southeastern trade winds of the southern hemisphere move north across the equator, and under the influence of the gravitational force of the earth' rotation, the southwest monsoon on the right is flapping on the Lincoln Navigator speeding on the roundabout, and it is too faint to detect. It's hard to notice that the whole car is equipped with 35 quiet acoustic bags as standard, and the front, side and rear windshields are all made of 5 layers of acoustic noise reduction glass. As the saying goes, people are effortless in front of them because they are doing their best behind their backs.
Dynamics: The cylinder is justice, and the displacement is the truth
Although the entry-level model is equipped with a high-power 2.0T engine that surpasses most competitors in its class, Lincoln still gives us a 2.7TV6 engine, which produces 322 horsepower and 500 Nm of peak torque. Yes, horsepower and cylinders are things like that, and no one is too much.
The performance of this powertrain is remarkable, first of all, the 8AT gearbox has left a deep impression on the circle brother, and it has achieved a relatively high level in terms of smoothness, and there has not been any setback in the comprehensive road conditions of more than 100 kilometers. If you pick the bones in the egg, you can only say that the gearbox still has room for improvement in terms of sharp acceleration and downshifting, but fortunately, the engine base displacement is enough, and only "brute force" is enough to cope with general acceleration, and it may not be necessary to downshift.
The power of the 2.7TV6 engine is continuous, even in the legal speed limit cruise conditions, one foot down, the feeling of pushing back is still obvious. Higher speed circle brother is also inconvenient to talk more, everyone understands. The most valuable thing is that while accelerating sharply and pulling up the high speed, the vibration of the engine is completely different from that of the 4-cylinder machine, and you can feel the strong confidence brought by the deep power reserve of the engine!
American cars have always paid attention to the comfort of high-speed cruising, and the Lincoln Navigator is certainly no exception, even more "extreme". The Lincoln Navigator is equipped with 35 quiet acoustic packages, a rare front windshield in its class, a 5-layer structural soundproof glass for the front and rear side windows, an ANC active noise reduction system and low roll resistance silent tires as standard. In addition, the ACC, combined with LCA Lane Center Assist, allows your hand to briefly leave the steering wheel. It is worth mentioning that the LCA's action is not "barbaric", and the car can be controlled smoothly in the middle of the road. Driving a high-power V6 Lincoln Navigator with excellent sound insulation and driving on the high speed with the ACC, this physical and mental comfort is difficult to replicate by opponents of the same level.
The Lincoln Navigator's chassis showed unexpected results, 21 inches of large rims, 40 flat ratio thin tires, surprisingly not at all epileptic, CCD adaptive suspension is indispensable. 4 suspension height sensors, 500 data readings per second, 100 independent adjustments to each wheel shock absorber, this is how the laws of physics are "overcome" by technology. This flexible feeling can not only silkily buckle the ground, but also can dissolve the bumps very well, the so-called sense of high-grade, so to speak.
In the view of "One Circle of Cars", the whole day with the Lincoln Navigator is undoubtedly very pleasant, it takes us to experience the cool breeze of Sanya, the blue sea and sand dunes, through the sand and gravel of the beach, indulging in the magnificent wonders of the Ring Road, and also experiencing heavy rain and hot sun in the day. Spacious and comfortable space, the ultimate tranquility, thick linear power output, silky gearbox, flexible and delicate chassis texture, intelligent driver assistance system and engine, just like the Nautilus Nautilus as strong and advanced, enough to carry its ambition to conquer the Nu Sea.
