The cabin is equipped with upscale materials and soft-touch surfaces. The dash comes with perfect design and a new 10-inch touchscreen.

Hybrid Drivetrain, MPG, Tow Rating
The regular Navigator model offers the same 3.5-liter twin-turbo engine. This unit generates up to 450 horsepower and 510 lb-ft of torque. Unfortunately, it is the only powertrain choice. It isn’t a bad thing, this engine is quiet, smooth and more importantly, powerful. However, the 2020 Lincoln Navigator Hybrid will surely satisfy the customers. Hybrid drivetrain will deliver astonishing mileage for the start.
The gasoline engine is rated at 21 mpg on the highway, and hybrid drivetrain will offer over 30 mpg. Electric motor and battery pack in a combination with the powerful V6 will provide more power as well. But the number of horses and level of torque won’t increase significantly. That means we can expect a slightly more powerful model with better fuel economy. Current Navigator can tow almost 9,000 pounds.

Premium SUVs aren’t cheap. The 2020 Lincoln Navigator Hybrid will start at around $80,000. The base model is priced at $73,500 and Black Label trim at almost $100,000.
