Thinking about grabbing yourself a new Lincoln Aviator this year? Your patience may have very well paid off in saving you some bucks. Pricing details for the 2022 Aviator have been revealed, and Lincoln is dropping upwards of four figures off the price tag.
Car and Driver, the 2022 Lincoln Aviator will carry a $52,090 base price with rear-wheel drive after the $1,095 destination charge. That’s down just slightly from the 2021 model’s MSRP of $52,195 after destination fee. The 494-horsepower Aviator Grand Touring will start at $68,980, which is below the 2021 Aviator Grand Touring’s pre-fee $69,070 starting price.

Verdict 8.7 / 10
For a time, it seemed like plug-in hybrids would be the stepping stones for the mass EV adoption. People could get comfortable with charging and retain the flexibility of gas, while the public EV infrastructure had time to build up. The Volvo XC90 T8 is a good example of why that idea never really came to fruition.
With just 14 miles of electric range when it arrived in 2015, the $69,095 2016 XC90 T8 carried a price tag nearly $20,000 higher than a comparable gas-powered model. Sure, it was more powerful and came with a federal income-tax credit, but neither an extra 130 horsepower nor a $4,600 savings from Uncle Sam could overshadow its poor value.
