This is because, according to a company spokesman, Lincoln engineers have added some additional drivetrain technology (such as electric power steering). They also prioritized the car’s low-end torque, quietness, handling and increased efficiency. Convinced that the car was capable of all this, the engine produced slightly less horsepower than the previous iteration. However, you can’t tell anything from the driver’s seat at all, so put it out of your head.
Two new trims also join the Chalet and Yacht Club schemes you can get with your premium Black Label Navigator: Central Park (which comes with black walnut interior trim and green leather, a la test car) and Invitation (which comes with Interior trim with Khaya wood). Both wooden fingerboards have very beautiful laser engraved detailing. The second row seats can be equipped with two entertainment monitors, as well as massage functions.
Finally, the 2022 Navigator will be the first Lincoln to feature ActiveGlide, the automaker’s advanced hands-free adaptive cruise control. How is it different from the Blue Cruise technology you find in other Ford vehicles, you ask? Is not. Someone just decided to give it a different name because, apparently, Lincoln and Ford products need to be different from each other.
