CarGurus Analysis: 2022 Lincoln Aviator

Summary
With 1,342 currently listed for sale and an average price of $34,041, 33.6% of 2022 Lincoln Aviator listings on CarGurus are rated as good or great deals.
Favorably reviewed: Owners rated the 2022 Lincoln Aviator 5 / 5 stars.
84.2% of 2022 Lincoln Aviator listings on CarGurus are accident free.
Why it stands out
The 2022 Lincoln Aviator stands out as a midsize, three-row luxury SUV that leans hard into Lincoln’s traditional focus on quiet refinement. It offers smooth power, a hushed interior, and sumptuous materials, while also being easier to maneuver in urban situations than a larger luxury SUV. That combination makes it appealing to buyers who want family-friendly space without giving up a premium feel.
This generation also brings a strong mix of technology and convenience. It can use your phone as the key, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are included. Standard equipment includes second-row bench seats, three-zone climate control, Sync 3 infotainment with a touchscreen, automatic emergency braking, blind spot information system, rear cross-traffic alert, lane keeping system, and automatic headlights. Available upgrades add features such as quad-zone climate control, a 14-speaker Revel audio system, a head-up display, a 360-degree camera, a panoramic sunroof, adaptive steering, an adaptive suspension with road preview, and a heated steering wheel.
The 2022 Aviator also has some clear tradeoffs. Its third row is cramped, Sync 3 is dated on used models, and rear visibility is poor. Even so, it remains attractive for shoppers who value comfort, a powerful engine, and a high-end cabin more than maximum space or the latest interface.

Reviewed a 2022 Lincoln Aviator on Dec 16, 2021
It is a nice mid-size SUV. I like the technology features it offers for the driver and the space it offers for my car seats in the second row and the ease of moving the second row seats with my car seats. Its size is very similar to the Infiniti QX60 and a little bigger than my Volvo XC90 and thats why I am trying to get the Aviator. I dont like the fact that its price has gone up but all the vehicle prices have. Its a smooth ride, I think that the Infiniti is a little smoother but it has more features than the QX60.

Being a luxury vehicle I wish it came standard with fog lights and rear heated seats. Otherwise it is a beautiful vehicle.

Very nice car. Loaded with options in the 201A package group. 30-way seats are comfortable with massage feature. Revel Sound System is exceptionally clear. Car handles well on the road and through curves. Leather appointments look extremely high-end.

“Got the Luxury package with Elements package, tow package and Lighting package. Love the car. Has everything you could need, and rides great. Gas mileage so far is around 22 mpg. Bought it to replace a 2019 Lexus RX 350L.

Is the 2022 Lincoln Aviator a good car?
Yes — the 2022 Lincoln Aviator earns a 5/5 user rating, which points to strong owner satisfaction.
Owners consistently praise its luxury feel, technology features, and spaciousness, especially for families. The interior quality and comfort also come through as recurring strengths, and the model’s premium character stands out for shoppers who want a refined three-row SUV. Based on the overview, it fits you best if you want family-friendly space without giving up a quiet, upscale cabin.
With 33.9% of listings marked as good or great deals, you have a decent chance of finding a competitively priced example.
Is the 2022 Lincoln Aviator reliable?
Owners rate it 5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.
The owner feedback also points to a dependable ownership experience, with repeated praise for comfort, luxury, and the overall quality feel of the cabin. That kind of satisfaction usually matters most when you want a used SUV you can count on over time, especially if you plan to keep it for several years.
For used buyers, the main long-term risk is less about the ownership experience and more about finding one that has been maintained well and hasn’t been worn down by heavy family use.
What should I look for when buying a used 2022 Lincoln Aviator?
Accident-free inventory is solid at 84.1% — always verify the vehicle history report.
You should start with the history report to confirm accident status, title status, and service consistency. Then prioritize a thorough inspection of the cabin electronics, climate controls, and any comfort features you care about, since this model leans heavily on premium equipment. It also makes sense to focus on overall condition, because a luxury SUV like this can feel very different depending on how well it was cared for.
Is now a good time to buy a used 2022 Lincoln Aviator?
This is a moderate market, so you can be selective without expecting every listing to be a bargain.
- Deal availability: 33.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Inventory: There are 1,343 listings available.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 17.26% compared with last year.
- Clean inventory: 84.1% of listings are accident-free.
If you find a listing below $34,019, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.
What is the 2022 Lincoln Aviator's resale value?
The current average of $34,019 sits slightly below last year's $41,116.
That drop suggests the market has already adjusted downward, which can help you buy more affordably now but may also limit near-term upside if you plan to resell soon. For a future seller, the key takeaway is that pricing discipline matters: buying well today gives you a better chance of protecting value later. Strong condition and desirable equipment should matter more when you eventually list it.
Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.
Should I buy a 2022 Lincoln Aviator or consider a different year?
If you're weighing the 2022 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:
Choose the 2022 if:
- 33.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
- Accident-free inventory is solid at 84.1% — always verify the vehicle history report.
- Price trend: Prices have softened 17.26% compared with last year.
- Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
Consider the 2021 if:
- At $29,322, the 2021 costs less than the current year's $34,019 average.
- It offers a spacious, comfort-first cabin with strong performance.
Consider the 2023 if:
- At $41,419, the 2023 costs more than the current year's $34,019 average.
- It adds a refreshed package mix while keeping the same quiet, comfort-focused character.
The bottom line: The 2022 is the best all-around pick if you want the strongest mix of owner satisfaction, current pricing, and market availability. If your priority is saving money, the 2021 is the better value path; if you want to spend more for a newer model-year option, the 2023 is the natural step up.
