VIP Lease·October 27, 2020·0 comments

When you think luxury midsize SUVs if the 2021 Lincoln Aviator comes to mind you would not be wrong since it was rated in the top 3 luxury midsize SUV class. But, what makes the new Aviator such a popular option to lease in NYC this year? Could it be its decadent interior, its powerful and efficient engine, versatility or its amazing safety ratings? VIP Auto Lease presents the 2021 Lincoln Aviator Review discussing all of the above topics.

Interior

Everything you notice when you step into the new Aviator is luxurious from the synthetic leather seats to the accents built into the doors and dash. The seats are heated and ventilated in both the front and back row, and the front row comes with standard 10 way adjustable seats. This can even be upgraded to 30 way power-adjustable seats and even the steering wheel can be heated. There is a smaller third row for a seating capacity of up to 6 or 7 people depending on the layout.

Cargo space is very competitive for a mid-size SUV, with a total of over 77 cubic feet when both back rows are folded down. In the standard setup, there are over 18 cubic feet behind the third row and 41 cubic feet behind the second row (when only the third row is folded down)

On the front dash, you will find the 10.1 inch touch screen display that controls the 10 speakers throughout the SUV and with all the features like Bluetooth, navigation and USB charging. You can also be certain you and all your passengers will be comfortable with the quad-zone automatic climate control.

Engine

Most trims of the new 2021 Lincoln Aviator come with a twin-turbo 3.0-liter V6 engine with 400 horsepower. It has a 10 speed automatic transmission that coupled with its 400 hp engine is more than enough for passing slower cars, speeding up to get on the entrance ramps and anything else. But don’t be fooled into thinking the large turbo engine will consume all of your gasoline. It was estimated to get 18 mpg in the city and 26 mpg on the highway on the rear wheel drive model and only slightly less on the all wheel drive model.

You can also put all the power to good use, when upgraded with the towing packages it can tow up to 6,700 pounds, which is plenty for many boats and small RVs for some family fun.

Safety

If you will be driving your family in this family-friendly 3 row SUV then you will want to know it is safe. And safe it is indeed, according to the NHTSA the Aviator received 5 stars in both side crash test and frontal crash test and a 4 star in the rollover test. Lincoln has also been improving its high-end driver assistance technology with excellent features like:
