What Lincoln Navigator do most buyers choose?

The Lincoln Navigator years with the most listings are 2024, 2023, and 2022.

Those higher-volume years tend to be the easiest to shop because they give you more inventory to compare and more chances to find the right color, mileage, and equipment mix. They also tend to be the years most shoppers cross-shop first when looking for a newer Navigator.

What is the Lincoln Navigator's resale value?

The table shows broad double-digit price declines across every listed model year, which is good news if you're shopping used and want to stretch your budget. Newer examples are dropping sharply too, so recent-model buyers may find more room to negotiate than they would expect. The smallest changes appear in the older model years, which suggests those versions have been moving a bit more steadily than the rest.

The 2018, 2019, and 2016 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.

Should I buy a used Lincoln Navigator now or wait for the next model?

Buy now if:

• Price trend: The 2024 model is at −14.62% versus a year ago, and the 2023 model is at −13.47%.
• Deal availability: The 2024 model has 33.7% good and great deals, and the 2023 model has 34%.
• Sweet-spot year: The 2024 model has the most listings at a current average price of $65,142. The Lincoln Navigator offers a spacious, upscale cabin with a strong sense of presence and a comfort-first character that suits family travel and long-distance driving.

Consider waiting if:

• Powertrain/efficiency: Lincoln continues to use a twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 engine in the 2025 Navigator. It makes 440 horsepower and 510 lb-ft of torque, bolts to a 10-speed automatic transmission, and has a towing capacity of up to 8,700 pounds with the Heavy-Duty Trailer Tow Package and 22-inch wheels.
• Tech: For 2025, the Navigator adds the company’s Lincoln Digital Experience infotainment system with a 48-inch panoramic display and an 11.1-inch center touchscreen control center.
• Safety: In the 2025 Navigator, Lincoln uses BlueCruise 1.4, the latest version with driver-signaled automatic lane changes and in-lane repositioning to give large trucks traveling in an adjacent lane a little more room.
• Starting price: With a base price of more than $100,000 (including the destination charge), the 2025 Lincoln Navigator is more expensive than the BMW X7, Cadillac Escalade, Infiniti QX80, Jeep Grand Wagoneer, Land Rover Defender 130, and Mercedes-Benz GLS.

If you're buying used today, the 2024 model year offers the best mix of value and availability. If you want the latest tech and features, it may be worth waiting for the next model year's inventory to build up.
