2023 AVIATOR® Design Features

AVAILABLE ADAPTIVE PIXEL LED HEADLAMPS

Placing light where it's needed. The Adaptive Pixel LED Headlamps apply a number of technologies to appropriately place light both on and off the road. At highway speeds, available speed-dependent lighting is designed to shine light farther into the distance; at slower speeds, the light array widens, helping drivers to detect pedestrians and potential hazards. Light-bending functionality uses camera technology to read road signs and lane markings to pre-illuminate the direction the road is heading.

Experience the sound of sanctuary. The Lincoln Aviator® SUV features available active noise control that captures, analyzes and cancels sound within the cabin. An acoustic-laminate windshield and front-door glass as well as expandable baffles further enhance interior quietness. To reduce sound from the powertrain, the engine compartment is sealed with a dual wall, and the exhaust system is dual-valved. These attributes and more were all artfully crafted for your peace of mind.
