Used 2021 Lincoln Aviator for Sale nearBiloxi, MS

How much does the 2021 Lincoln Aviator cost?

Prices have softened 13.66% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 1,261 listings available, which gives you a solid pool of inventory to compare.

Is the 2021 Lincoln Aviator a good car?

Yes — the 2021 Lincoln Aviator earns a 4.75/5 user rating and a 7.83/10 expert rating. The model scores 9/10 across Look and feel and Safety.

Owners consistently praise its comfort, luxurious feel, and powerful performance. They also highlight the spacious, well-designed interior and the high-end features that make it feel upscale. The main trade-offs are road noise and the auto stop-start system, which some owners wish could be disabled permanently.

That lines up with the Aviator’s role as a three-row midsize luxury SUV focused on comfort, refinement, and premium materials rather than sporty driving. With 35.9% of listings marked as good or great deals, you have some room to shop carefully.

Is the 2021 Lincoln Aviator reliable?

Owners rate it 4.75/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

Owner feedback points to a vehicle that feels dependable, comfortable, and trouble-free enough to earn strong loyalty from shoppers who want a luxury SUV they can count on. The expert evaluation also emphasizes its smooth, confident character and strong overall execution, which supports the impression of solid day-to-day dependability.

The Aviator’s maintenance and ownership experience should still be checked carefully on any used example, especially given its premium positioning and complex equipment. For used buyers, the biggest long-term risk is buying one that has been poorly maintained or heavily optioned without proper service history.

What should I look for when buying a used 2021 Lincoln Aviator?

Accident-free inventory is solid at 81.3% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still run a history report on every candidate and prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially on higher-mileage or heavily optioned examples. Focus on overall condition, because luxury features, electronics, and interior wear can matter as much as mechanical health on a used Aviator.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The Standard trim includes synthetic leather upholstery, tri-zone climate control, 10-way power-adjustable front seats, heated front seats, remote start, and a power liftgate. The Reserve adds 12-way power-adjustable front seats, upgraded leather upholstery, four-zone climate control, a hands-free power liftgate, second-row captain's chairs, a panoramic sunroof, and a 12-speaker Revel premium stereo system. The Grand Touring adds a plug-in hybrid powertrain, adaptive headlights, and the Elements Package Plus with a heated steering wheel, heated and ventilated front seats, and massaging front seats. The Black Label adds the Convenience and Luxury packages as standard equipment, including a head-up display, wireless device charging, and a 28-speaker Revel Ultima sound system. The Black Label Grand Touring adds a Dynamic Handling Package and nearly every optional feature as standard.
• Powertrain: Standard, Reserve, and Black Label trims use a 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged V6 with 400 horsepower and 415 pound-feet of torque. The Grand Touring and Grand Touring Black Label use the same twin-turbo V6 in plug-in hybrid form, with 494 hp and 630 lb-ft of torque, plus up to 21 miles of electric range.
• Safety package: The standard Lincoln Co-Pilot 360 package includes automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning, automatic high beams, blind-spot monitoring, and front-and-rear parking sensors. The available Co-Pilot 360 Plus package adds reverse automatic braking, self-parking functionality, and adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go capability.
• Infotainment: You get a standard 10.1-inch touchscreen with Sync 3, plus Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The system also uses redundant controls below the screen, and the available head-up display adds another layer of convenience.
• Fuel efficiency: The RWD model returns 18 mpg city, 26 highway, and 21 combined. The AWD model returns 17 mpg city, 24 highway, and 20 combined. The plug-in hybrid is rated at 56 MPGe and offers 21 miles of electric range.

Which 2021 Lincoln Aviator trim should I buy?

The 2021 Lincoln Aviator is offered in 5 trim levels: Standard, Reserve, Grand Touring, Black Label, and Black Label Grand Touring.

Here's the short version:

• Standard: This is the entry point, but it still gives you a strong luxury baseline with heated front seats, remote start, a power liftgate, and the standard 10.1-inch touchscreen. If you want the lowest-cost way into the Aviator, this is the trim to start with.
• Reserve: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it adds upgraded leather, four-zone climate control, second-row captain's chairs, a panoramic sunroof, and the 12-speaker Revel premium stereo system. It feels like the point where the Aviator’s luxury mission really comes together.
• Grand Touring: Choose this if you want the plug-in hybrid powertrain and the extra performance it brings, along with adaptive headlights and the Elements Package Plus features. It suits you best if efficiency, torque, and a more upscale feature set matter more than price.
• Black Label: This trim layers on the Convenience and Luxury packages as standard equipment, including a head-up display, wireless device charging, and the 28-speaker Revel Ultima sound system. It is the pick if you want the most indulgent non-hybrid Aviator.
• Black Label Grand Touring: This is the top-end choice if you want the plug-in hybrid powertrain plus nearly every available feature and the Dynamic Handling Package. It makes sense if you want the most fully equipped Aviator and are willing to pay for it.

The standard Lincoln Co-Pilot 360 package gives you a strong safety baseline, while Co-Pilot 360 Plus is available for added driver assistance.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2021 Lincoln Aviator?

This is a moderate market for selective buyers, so it rewards comparison shopping.

• Deal availability: 35.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 1,261 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 13.66% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 81.3% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $30,601, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2021 Lincoln Aviator's resale value?

The current average of $30,601 sits slightly below last year's $35,443.

That drop suggests the market has moved in buyers’ favor, which can make the Aviator easier to purchase now but may also mean slower appreciation for a future seller. If you plan to resell later, the current pricing trend shows that you should buy carefully and avoid overpaying for a trim or option package that the market may not fully reward.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.75/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2021 Lincoln Aviator safe?

The 2021 Lincoln Aviator earns top marks from both NHTSA and IIHS, including a Top Safety Pick accolade from the IIHS.

It earns a 9/10 safety score from our experts.

The standard Lincoln Co-Pilot 360 package includes automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning, automatic high beams, blind-spot monitoring, and front-and-rear parking sensors. Available Co-Pilot 360 Plus adds reverse automatic braking, self-parking functionality, and adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go capability.

One important caveat is that advanced safety features are not standard across the lineup, so you should confirm exactly which driver-assistance equipment is fitted on any used example you’re considering.

Should I buy a 2021 Lincoln Aviator or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2021 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2021 if:

• 35.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 81.3% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 13.66% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.75/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It combines multiple powertrain choices with a premium cabin and a soft ride.

Consider the 2020 if:

• At $28,106, the 2020 costs less than the current year's $30,601 average.
• It introduced Lincoln’s modern luxury identity in this model line.

The bottom line: If you want the strongest mix of value, comfort, and feature content, the 2021 is the better all-around pick. If your priority is spending less up front, the 2020 is the smarter budget alternative, especially if you find one in excellent condition.
