Used 2025 Lincoln Aviator for Sale nearCedar Rapids, IA

How much does the 2025 Lincoln Aviator cost?

Prices have softened 10.64% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 853 listings available, which suggests you should have a workable range of choices.

Is the 2025 Lincoln Aviator a good car?

Yes — the 2025 Lincoln Aviator earns a 5/5 user rating and a 7.83/10 expert rating. The model scores 9/10 across Technology and Safety.

It stands out in the midsize, three-row luxury SUV segment by leaning into traditional American luxury and mid-century modern cues while still delivering a calm, unhurried cabin experience. It also brings some of the most advanced technology of any of its rivals, along with fresh styling and new thematic packages.

The trade-offs are clear: the twin-turbo V6 is the only engine, and the SUV’s ride quality and third-row space are not its strongest points. Even so, it fits well if you want a powerful, quiet, and comfortable luxury SUV with a distinctive personality.

31.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals, which gives you some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2025 Lincoln Aviator reliable?

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

The Aviator is presented as a calm, refined luxury SUV with a strong feature set and a sophisticated cabin, and its expert evaluation reinforces that it’s built around comfort and modern capability. Its twin-turbo V6 is described as a great engine, and the ownership package includes complimentary valet pick-up and drop-off service for scheduled maintenance.

The main long-term ownership risk for used buyers is that its fuel economy is poor, so running costs may be higher than you’d like.

What should I look for when buying a used 2025 Lincoln Aviator?

Accident-free inventory is excellent at 93.9% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.

You should still run a vehicle history report, prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, and pay close attention to tire condition, suspension behavior, and interior wear. It’s also smart to verify that the technology and driver-assistance features work as expected, since this model leans heavily on advanced equipment.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The Premiere, Reserve, and Black Label trims differ in luxury content, and the base trim leaves out some of the richer equipment found higher up the range.
• Powertrain: The only powertrain is a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 with 400 horsepower and 415 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission.
• Safety package: Lincoln Co-Pilot360 Drive 2.0 is standard, with active blind-spot monitoring with trailer coverage, intersection assist, evasive steering assist, reverse braking assist, adaptive cruise control, lane-centering assist, and BlueCruise. BlueCruise includes a complimentary four-year subscription.
• Infotainment: A 13.2-inch touchscreen works with Google Built-in, Alexa Built-in, wireless Apple CarPlay, and wireless Android Auto.
• Fuel efficiency: The official EPA fuel economy rating is 20 mpg in combined driving.

Which 2025 Lincoln Aviator trim should I buy?

The 2025 Lincoln Aviator is offered in 3 trim levels: Premiere, Reserve, and Black Label.

Here's the short version:

• Premiere: This is the entry point, and it gives you the Aviator’s core luxury-suv experience with the standard tech and safety foundation. It makes sense if you want the model’s style and comfort without chasing the priciest extras.
• Reserve: This is the best-value trim for most shoppers because it adds a richer mix of comfort and convenience equipment. The test vehicle’s Reserve II Package brought upgraded exterior lighting, 30-way-adjustable Perfect Position front seats with massage, heated and ventilated second-row seats, a 28-speaker Revel Ultima audio system, and 22-inch wheels.
• Black Label: This is the top luxury choice, and it’s the one to consider if you want the most upscale presentation and the most premium-feeling Aviator experience.

BlueCruise is standard across the lineup, and Lincoln’s safety package includes the full Co-Pilot360 Drive 2.0 suite.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2025 Lincoln Aviator?

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

• Deal availability: 31.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 853 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 10.64% compared with last year.

If you find a listing below $59,933, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2025 Lincoln Aviator's resale value?

The current average of $59,933 sits slightly below last year's $67,069.

That price drop suggests the market has already adjusted downward, which can help you buy at a more favorable point in the cycle. For a future seller, that also means you should expect resale value to depend heavily on condition, mileage, and equipment.

Strong demand for well-kept examples should help support values, especially because the Aviator combines luxury branding, advanced tech, and a distinctive design. 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 2025 Lincoln Aviator safe?

The 2025 Lincoln Aviator earns five-star ratings across the board from NHTSA, plus a four-star rating for rollover resistance. It also earns Good ratings in all completed IIHS evaluations.

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

Lincoln Co-Pilot360 Drive 2.0 is standard, and the key features include active blind-spot monitoring with trailer coverage, intersection assist, evasive steering assist, reverse braking assist, adaptive cruise control, lane-centering assist, and BlueCruise. BlueCruise is standard and includes a complimentary four-year subscription.

One caveat is that reverse braking assist can be overly sensitive in some situations, and blind-spot warnings on the head-up display require the turn signal to be used first.

Should I buy a 2025 Lincoln Aviator or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2025 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2025 if:

• 31.7% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is excellent at 93.9% — clean inventory, standard diligence applies.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 10.64% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It adds some of the most advanced technology of any rival, plus fresh styling and new thematic packages.

Consider the 2026 if:

• It leans more heavily into comfort and luxury while keeping a more refined cabin.

The bottom line: If you want the stronger value play right now, the 2025 is the better target because pricing has softened and inventory is healthy. If your priority is a newer take on the same comfort-first formula, the 2026 is worth a look, but price-sensitive buyers should focus on the 2025.
