Used 2022 Lincoln Navigator for Sale nearSacramento, CA

How much does the 2022 Lincoln Navigator cost?

Prices have softened 14.92% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 1,090 listings available, which suggests you should have a workable range of choices.

Is the 2022 Lincoln Navigator a good car?

Yes — the 2022 Lincoln Navigator earns a 5/5 user rating and an 8.17/10 expert rating. The standout strength is Form and function at 10/10.

The overview and test-drive data point to a full-size luxury SUV that emphasizes presence, comfort, and capability. You get a classically elegant design, robust towing capacity, and soothing comfort in all three rows, along with a refreshed look and updated technology for 2022.

The trade-offs are worth weighing: the grille design may not suit you, the interior chrome can feel excessive, and voice recognition needs fine-tuning. If you want a large luxury SUV that prioritizes refinement and utility, this one fits that use case well.

Good and great deals account for 34.1% of listings, which gives you some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2022 Lincoln Navigator reliable?

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

The overview describes a refined, premium SUV with a quiet cabin, strong power, and a comfortable three-row layout, while the expert test-drive data reinforces that it feels well-sorted in daily use. The performance notes also point to a robust twin-turbo V6, a 10-speed automatic, and confident towing ability, which are all encouraging signs for long-term ownership.

The tech and ownership details add some reassurance too: the infotainment system supports over-the-air updates, and Lincoln includes valet service for maintenance visits. For used buyers, the main long-term risk is that a large luxury SUV can be expensive to keep in top shape, so condition and service history matter.

What should I look for when buying a used 2022 Lincoln Navigator?

Accident-free inventory is solid at 83.5% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still check the vehicle history report carefully and prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially on a large luxury SUV where repairs can be costly. Focus on cabin condition, electronics, and how well the vehicle’s comfort and driver-assistance features work in real-world use.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: Standard, Reserve, and Black Label are the trims explicitly identified here. The base setup already includes a 20-inch wheel design, but the higher trims are where you should expect more luxury-focused equipment and presentation.
• Powertrain: The Navigator uses a twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 with a 10-speed automatic and rear-wheel drive or four-wheel drive. It delivers 440 horsepower and 510 pound-feet of torque, with towing capacity ranging from 8,100 pounds to 8,700 pounds depending on configuration.
• Safety package: The standard suite includes Intersection Assist, Road Edge Detection, Active Park Assist 2.0, ActiveGlide, and a surround-view camera system. ActiveGlide is the hands-free highway system, but you still need to stay attentive.
• Infotainment: The 13.2-inch touchscreen is a major upgrade, and Sync 4 supports wireless-style smartphone integration through Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, plus over-the-air updates.
• Fuel efficiency: The Navigator 4WD should return 18 mpg in combined driving, and the test vehicle averaged 18.6 mpg on the route described.

Which 2022 Lincoln Navigator trim should I buy?

The 2022 Lincoln Navigator is offered in 3 trim levels: Standard, Reserve, and Black Label.

Here's the short version:

• Standard: This is the entry point, and it already gives you the Navigator’s core strengths: the twin-turbo V6, the updated 13.2-inch Sync 4 touchscreen, and the new driver-assistance hardware. If you want the Navigator experience without chasing luxury extras, this is the trim to start with.
• Reserve: This is the best-value trim if you want a more upscale feel without going all the way to the top. It should be the sweet spot for shoppers who care about comfort and technology but still want to keep the purchase more grounded.
• Black Label: This is the one to choose if you want the most luxurious presentation and the richest cabin experience. The test vehicle’s Central Park theme, matching interior, and second-row heated, ventilated, and massaging captain’s chairs show how far this trim can go.

The safety package includes Intersection Assist, Road Edge Detection, Active Park Assist 2.0, ActiveGlide, and a surround-view camera system.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2022 Lincoln Navigator?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop with some leverage if you’re patient.

• Deal availability: 34.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 1,090 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 14.92% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 83.5% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $48,572, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2022 Lincoln Navigator's resale value?

The current average of $48,572 sits slightly below last year's $57,087.

That drop suggests the market has already adjusted downward, which can help you as a buyer today but may limit upside if you plan to resell soon. For a future seller, the key takeaway is that pricing discipline matters: a well-kept Navigator with desirable equipment should be easier to move than one that looks overpriced for the market.

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

Is the 2022 Lincoln Navigator safe?

The 2022 Lincoln Navigator earns a Top Safety Pick+ rating from IIHS.

It earns an 8/10 safety score from our experts.

The standard safety suite includes Intersection Assist, Road Edge Detection, Active Park Assist 2.0, ActiveGlide, and a surround-view camera system. ActiveGlide is the hands-free highway feature, while Active Park Assist 2.0 handles parallel and perpendicular parking with the driver still ready to take over.

A key caveat is that ActiveGlide is limited to approved roads and conditions, so it is not a substitute for active driving attention. The system is helpful, but you should still treat it as an assist feature rather than full autonomy.

Should I buy a 2022 Lincoln Navigator 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:

• 34.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 83.5% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 14.92% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2022 refresh adds updated styling, a larger 13.2-inch touchscreen, and new driver-assistance tech.

Consider the 2021 if:

• At $39,537, the 2021 costs less than the current year's $48,572 average.
• It offers a quieter, more apartment-like luxury feel with strong power and premium materials.

Consider the 2023 if:

• At $56,311, the 2023 costs more than the current year's $48,572 average.
• It keeps the Navigator’s upscale family-friendly character while adding spaciousness and capability.

The bottom line: If you want the best mix of updated tech, comfort, and market pricing, the 2022 is the smart default. If your priority is saving money, the 2021 is the value play; if you want to spend more for a newer alternative, the 2023 is the next step up.
