For 2022, Lincoln’s four crossover/SUV lineup receives minor changes across the board. The Corsair, Nautilus, and Aviator each arrive with revised exterior color palettes and numerous equipment and appearance package updates. However, the most significant upgrades go to Lincoln’s largest SUV, the Navigator, which becomes the first model in the brand’s lineup to receive ActiveGlide semi-autonomous driving technology. The Navigator also receives minor front and rear styling changes. All powertrains across the model line are carryover.
Specific changes to the individual models are listed below in alphabetical order.
Going into its third year of production, Lincoln’s smallest crossover receives minor paint and packaging upgrades for 2022. The exterior color palette adds Bronze Smoke Metallic, Elite Blue Metallic, and Ocean Drive Blue Metallic. Lincoln no longer offers Artisan Blue, Burgundy Velvet, and Iced Mocha.
A new Luxury package on Reserve and Grand Touring trims includes a head-up display and a 13-speaker Revel audio system. Also, the Grand Touring trim combines its Elements and Technology packages into a single Elements Technology package with features such as a hands-free liftgate, Dynamic Bending LED headlamps, and 24-way Perfect Position seats.
Available in Base, Reserve, and Black Label trims, the Lincoln Nautilus midsize SUV is mostly unchanged for 2022, aside from a revised exterior color palette and minor packaging updates.
