Lincoln trim levels explained

By CarWhere Research · Updated

Current Lincoln SUVs use a common trim ladder — Premiere, Reserve and, on most models, the top Black Label — and some model years add a Grand Touring plug-in hybrid. Older model years used other names, so a trim name alone does not pin down equipment; each model page lists the trims by generation. CarWhere lays out 38 trims across 4 Lincoln models — Navigator, Aviator, Nautilus and Corsair — with dated base MSRPs, engines and key equipment.
