What engine is in a Lincoln Navigator?

I found a 2018 Lincoln Navigator within my budget and I like the style of the interior. I know that the engine is important too, though, so I’m hoping it’s powerful as well as sleek. Does the Navigator have a powerful engine?

The
Lincoln Navigator
uses a turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 engine. While Lincoln doesn’t claim the EcoBoost label on most modern Ford engines, the engine is a version of the ones that are used in Ford’s trucks.
The 2018 Navigator gets 450 horsepower and has a theoretical top speed of 157 MPH without any speed limiters in place. It’s also considered a pretty reliable car, so it’s a good vehicle to buy secondhand.
However, you should still make sure to have the car inspected, particularly because Lincoln is typically a pretty expensive brand. If you notice any issues with the Navigator before purchasing it, make sure that those issues are reflected in the price.
