CarGurus Analysis: 2021 Lincoln Aviator
overall

Summary
With 124 currently listed for sale near Montgomery, AL and an average price of $28,395, 46.0% of 2021 Lincoln Aviators for sale on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2021 Lincoln Aviator 4.75 / 5 stars and CarGurus experts gave it a 7.83 / 10.
100.0% of 2021 Aviator models on CarGurus are accident free.
Why it stands out
The 2021 Lincoln Aviator stands out as a three-row midsize SUV that blends modern technology, potent drivetrain options, and a cabin full of creature comforts. It is also notable for its spacious interior and soft ride, two traits that help give it a more relaxed, luxury-focused character. Lincoln’s premium materials are another strength, and the overall impression is of an SUV that aims to feel more upscale than ordinary family haulers.
That appeal is tempered by a few drawbacks. The third row is cramped, the touchscreen response is sluggish, and advanced safety features are not standard. Even so, the 2021 Lincoln Aviator’s combination of multiple powertrain options, great ride quality, and premium interior materials makes it a compelling choice for buyers who want comfort and refinement in a midsize luxury SUV.

2021 Aviator Reserve AWD. Comfortable and roomy. Plenty of bells and whistles. Wish one could turn off the auto stop-start permanently.

Loved the comfort, look and options in the vehicle. The road noise on the AWD Reserve was more than I would expect/accept at that price point.

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, and many also like the spacious, well-designed interior. The Aviator’s premium materials and high-end feature set are recurring positives, especially if you want a refined three-row SUV rather than a basic family hauler.
The trade-offs are worth keeping in mind: the third row is cramped, and the touchscreen response is sluggish. It fits best if you value comfort, technology, and a luxury-focused ride over maximum space or sharp city maneuverability.
With 34.2% of listings marked as good or great deals, you have room to shop selectively.
Is the 2021 Lincoln Aviator reliable?
Owners rate it 4.75/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.
The owner feedback points to a vehicle that feels dependable in daily use, with comfort and strong performance showing up again and again in reviews. That kind of praise matters when you’re looking for a used luxury SUV you can count on over time.
The expert evaluation also emphasizes the Aviator’s polished, confidence-inspiring character, with smooth power delivery and a well-executed cabin experience. On the ownership side, the plug-in hybrid’s charging times are manageable for home use, and the standard powertrain lineup gives you flexibility without forcing you into the hybrid.
For used buyers, the main long-term risk is less about outright durability and more about whether the vehicle’s luxury features and electronics have been maintained properly.
What should I look for when buying a used 2021 Lincoln Aviator?
Accident-free inventory is solid at 81.4% — always verify the vehicle history report.
You should still check each listing carefully, because a clean history percentage does not guarantee a perfect individual vehicle. Prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, confirm that the electronics work as intended, and pay close attention to cabin condition, since this model’s appeal depends heavily on its comfort and tech features.
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. 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. Grand Touring adds the plug-in hybrid powertrain, adaptive headlights, and the Elements Package Plus, which brings a heated steering wheel and heated and ventilated front seats. 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. Black Label Grand Touring adds the 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, paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive or available all-wheel drive. 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 that can stop and go with traffic.
- Infotainment: You get a standard 10.1-inch touchscreen with Sync 3, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and redundant center-stack controls. The system also uses a landscape layout, 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, while the AWD version 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 synthetic leather upholstery, heated front seats, remote start, and a power liftgate. It makes sense if you want the Aviator’s core comfort and style without stretching for extras.
- 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. If you want the most balanced mix of luxury and equipment, start here.
- Grand Touring: Choose this if you want the plug-in hybrid powertrain and the added comfort of adaptive headlights plus the Elements Package Plus. It suits you best if performance and electrified driving matter more than keeping the price down.
- Black Label: This trim layers on the Convenience and Luxury packages, including a head-up display, wireless device charging, and the 28-speaker Revel Ultima sound system. It is the pick if you want the richest cabin experience and the most upscale feature set.
- Black Label Grand Touring: This is the top-end choice if you want the plug-in hybrid powertrain plus nearly every available feature. It is the most complete version, but it also sits at the highest price point.
The standard safety package is strong, and the available Co-Pilot 360 Plus package adds useful driver-assistance upgrades on higher-spec builds.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2021 Lincoln Aviator?
This is a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop carefully and still find worthwhile listings.
- Deal availability: 34.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 1,247 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 13.77% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 81.4% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $30,173, 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 $30,173 sits slightly below last year's $34,991.
That decline suggests the market has already adjusted downward, which can help you as a buyer but may pressure resale returns if you plan to sell soon. If you buy at the right price now, you reduce the chance of taking a steep depreciation hit later.
The Aviator’s strong luxury appeal and broad feature set should help it stay attractive to shoppers who want a premium three-row SUV. Well-equipped examples with clean history and desirable options are likely to hold attention better than stripped or neglected ones.
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 Aviator earns top marks from both the IIHS and NHTSA, and it also earns a Top Safety Pick accolade from the IIHS.
It earns a 9/10 safety score from our experts.
Standard Lincoln Co-Pilot 360 brings automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning, automatic high beams, blind-spot monitoring, and front-and-rear parking sensors. If you move up to the available Co-Pilot 360 Plus package, you also get reverse automatic braking, self-parking functionality, and adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go capability.
One thing to keep in mind is that advanced safety features are not standard across the board, so you should confirm exactly which package a used example has before you buy.
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:
- 34.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Accident-free inventory is solid at 81.4% — always verify the vehicle history report.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 13.77% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 4.75/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
- The 2021 Aviator stands out for its premium materials, soft ride, and multiple powertrain choices.
Consider the 2020 if:
- At $28,002, the 2020 costs less than the current year's $30,173 average.
- It offers a fresh luxury identity with a stylish design and comfortable cabin.
The bottom line: If you want the strongest mix of value, inventory, and luxury features, the 2021 is the better all-around pick. If your priority is spending less up front, the 2020 is the smarter budget-friendly alternative, especially if you find one with the right equipment and a clean history.
