The 2012 Lincoln Navigator L is a part of the third-generation of Navigator SUVs. It is powered by a 5.4-liter V8 engine paired with a six-speed automatic transmission, producing 310 hp. The Navigator L offers both RWD and optional 4WD drivetrains. There is only one trim available that reflects ultimate luxury, providing ample second- and third-row space and extended cargo capacity compared to the standard Navigator. Its key safety features include stability and traction control, antilock disc brakes, front seat side airbags, three-row side curtain airbags, and the Ford's MyKey system which allows parents to set speed and stereo volume limits for younger drivers. Noteworthy tech includes a touchscreen navigation system, power-folding running boards, and a 14-speaker surround-sound audio system. The model however, did not go through significant changes from the previous year.
