2007 Lincoln Navigator Review
Lincoln revamps its large SUV for 2007, giving it fresh styling and an extended-wheelbase model. Navigator, a dressed-up version of Ford's similarly changed '07 Expedition, comes in a standard-length version and the new-for-'07 Navigator L. The L has a 12-inch longer wheelbase and is 14.7 inches longer overall. Both versions seat up to eight. Luxury and Ultimate trims are offered on standard-length versions. Ls are a single trim, though the standard-length Ultimate's features are available as part of an option package. The sole powertrain is again a 300-hp V8 and a 6-speed automatic transmission. All Navigators offer rear-wheel drive or 4WD that can be left engaged on dry pavement. Navigator's 4WD does not include low-range gearing, but a dashboard switch locks in a 50/50 front/rear torque split.

ABS and antiskid system with rollover sensors are standard. Same for curtain side airbags that cover all three seating rows and include rollover deployment. Also standard are leather upholstery and wood interior trim. Options include a navigation system, satellite radio, and DVD entertainment. Ultimate adds heated/cooled front seats, power liftgate, and power folding 3rd-row seat. Navigator's performance and accommodations mirror those of similarly equipped Expeditions.

News
A more-potent 6.2-liter "Hurricane" V8 was planned for the '07 Navigator and Ford Expedition, but has been delayed by Ford Motor's current cash crunch. Sources now say the new engine won't be available until model-year '08 at the earliest. The Hurricane is said to be Ford's answer to GM's largest SUV V8s and Chrysler Group's Hemi.
