Lincoln Aviator vs. Genesis GV80: Which Fits a St. Peters Family?

New Model Year  |  St. Peters, MO The 2027 Aviator is an update, not a redesign. Most of what changed is about security, paint and one roof option, and most of what you'd drive stays put. If you were waiting on the 2027 Lincoln Aviator for a big change, this isn't that year. The Aviator keeps the same single powertrain, and the bigger changes are still a few years off. What did change is small but useful, and a couple of the updates are things buyers in St. Charles County ask about all the time. This post lists the 2027 changes reported before late September, the features that carry over from the 2026 Lincoln Aviator, and how to decide between a leftover 2026 and a new 2027 when both are on the lot. Quick answer: For 2027 the Lincoln Aviator adds a standard Lincoln Security Package on every trim, a black painted roof that can be ordered with the Jet Appearance Package on the Reserve, and a revised exterior color list with two colors dropped and three added. The twin turbo 3.0 liter V6 and the rest of the core vehicle carry over from 2026. Main change Standard Lincoln Security Package Engine Twin turbo 3.0L V6 carries over Redesign Not this year In this post What's new for 2027 The Security Package What carries over Driving it around here 2026 or 2027 What Changed on the 2027 Lincoln Aviator? Three updates stand out for 2027. None of them change how the Lincoln Aviator drives, but each one changes what you get for your money or how the vehicle looks. 1 Lincoln Security Package becomes standard Every 2027 Lincoln Aviator trim gets it, from Premiere through Black Label. 2 A black painted roof on Reserve It can be ordered with the Jet Appearance Package, and This is the first time Lincoln has offered it on the Aviator Reserve. 3 A revised color list Two exterior colors were dropped and three were added. Ask us for the current color list before you order. The rest of the vehicle carries over from 2026. That's good news if you liked the 2026 and want the same thing with a little more standard equipment. What Does the Lincoln Security Package Do? This is the update most owners will notice in daily life. The package includes four services, and they work through the Lincoln app and a live agent. Theft Alerts: a notification on your phone if someone tampers with the vehicle. Start Inhibit: lets you remotely set the vehicle so it won't start without an authorized key nearby. Stolen Vehicle Services: a phone line to a live Lincoln agent who works with law enforcement to help find and recover the vehicle. Deductible Reimbursement: help with your insurance deductible if the vehicle is stolen, in select states. The package is a subscription, with four years complimentary once it's activated on a new vehicle purchase. Ask us to activate it at delivery and walk you through the settings in the app, because the alerts only help if your phone is set to receive them. Shop New Lincoln Aviator Learn About the Lincoln App Which Lincoln Aviator Features Carry Over Into 2027? The core of the vehicle is the same. Our 2027 Lincoln Aviator page lists a standard twin turbo 3.0 liter V6 with standard rear wheel drive, and all wheel drive is offered. It also lists these features you'll recognize if you've driven a 2026: Adaptive Suspension with Road Preview, which uses a forward facing camera to read the road ahead and adjust for bumps. Lincoln Digital Experience with Google Assistant, Google Maps and Google Play. Some features need a Connectivity plan. Lincoln Co-Pilot360 driver assist features, including Pre Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking and a 360 degree camera. Available BlueCruise hands free highway driving, which needs an active plan or trial and now includes Automatic Lane Change. A 28 speaker Revel Ultima 3D audio system, second row captain's chairs and an available panoramic Vista Roof, shown on Black Label. Ask the team for exact towing and cargo figures on the vehicle you're looking at. They change with drivetrain and equipment, and the window sticker is the number that counts. That's good news if you liked the 2026 and want the same thing with a little more standard equipment. How Does the Lincoln Aviator Fit Life in St. Charles County? Three rows matter more here than in a lot of places. Plenty of families around O'Fallon and Lake St. Louis run a carpool to practice at Quail Ridge Park one night and a grocery run on Mexico Road the next. The Lincoln Aviator handles both without the size of a full size SUV in a crowded lot. The Road Preview suspension earns its keep after a freeze and thaw winter, when the ramps onto I-70 and Highway 364 pick up potholes faster than crews can fill them. And if your Aviator sleeps in a driveway, the Security Package alerts are one more reason to keep the Lincoln app on your phone. St. Peters driver tip Before a summer weekend at Lake of the Ozarks, set up BlueCruise and the driver assist settings in your driveway, not on I-70. Learn where the controls are while you're parked, then try it on the open stretch west of Wright City once traffic thins out. Should You Buy a 2026 or a 2027 Lincoln Aviator? Since the drivetrain and most features carry over, this comes down to a short list. If the standard Security Package, the black roof option or one of the new colors matters to you, the 2027 is the one to order. If none of those move you, a 2026 still on the lot may come with manufacturer offers on the outgoing model year. Check current manufacturer specials and compare the two side by side with someone on our sales team. Bring your trade information too, since the numbers on both can change once the trade is in the picture.

Model  |  St. Peters, MO What it's like to charge, commute and road trip in a pre owned Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring around St. Charles County, and what to check before you buy one. The Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring never got as much attention as it deserved. It took the three row Lincoln Aviator, kept the twin turbocharged V6, and slipped an electric motor and a plug in battery in between. Lincoln built it through the 2023 model year and then dropped it, and the current Lincoln Aviator is gas only. That makes the Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring a pre owned story now. Shoppers who find one on a used lot often ask the same things. How far does it go on electricity? Where do you plug it in? What changes about service? This post sticks to what owners deal with day to day in St. Peters, O'Fallon and the rest of the county. Quick answer: The Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring is a plug in hybrid version of the three row Lincoln Aviator, sold new through the 2023 model year. It can run short trips on electric power alone, then switches to the twin turbo V6 when the battery runs low, so there's no range worry on long drives. Today you shop it pre owned, and a battery and charging check belongs on the list before you buy. Sold new Through the 2023 model year Powertrain Twin turbo V6 plus plug in battery Seating Three rows In this post What the Grand Touring is Everyday driving Charging at home Road trips and weekends Buying one pre owned What Is the Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring? Grand Touring was the plug in hybrid trim of the Lincoln Aviator. It used the same 3.0 liter twin turbocharged V6 as the gas model, added an electric motor inside the 10 speed automatic, and stored power in a battery pack that charges from the wall. All wheel drive was standard on it. From the driver's seat it looks like any other Lincoln Aviator. Same three rows, same dashboard, same general size in the garage. The battery sits under the floor, so Lincoln was able to keep the cabin layout of the gas model. The differences show up in a charge port on the front fender, a couple of extra drive modes, and a quieter pull away from a stop. Lincoln stopped building the Grand Touring after the 2023 model year. If you want a plug in three row Lincoln today, a pre owned Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring is the route. If you want a new one, the current Lincoln Aviator uses the twin turbo V6 without the plug in hardware. How Does It Drive Around St. Peters Day to Day? Short local runs are where the Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring earns its keep. Drop off at school in Cottleville, a stop at Mid Rivers Mall, groceries on Salt River Road, and back home. With a charged battery, a lot of that kind of driving can happen on electricity alone, quietly, and without the engine ever warming up. The drive modes do most of the work. Pure EV keeps it on electric power as long as the battery allows. Preserve EV holds the charge for later, which is handy if you want to save electric driving for the slow part of a trip. Leave it in the normal mode and the system blends the two on its own. Real electric range depends on temperature, speed, cabin heat and how the vehicle has aged. Cold mornings in January will take a bite out of it. For the rated figure on a specific vehicle, check the original window sticker or ask our team to look it up by VIN. Short local runs are where the Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring earns its keep. Where Do You Charge a Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring? Most owners charge at home overnight. A regular household outlet works with the right cord and plenty of time. A 240 volt Level 2 charger in the garage cuts that down a lot, and it's the setup that makes daily electric driving easy. If you're thinking about installing one, have a licensed electrician look at your panel first. Because it's a plug in hybrid, public charging is a bonus, not a requirement. You'll find chargers at shopping centers and some workplaces around St. Charles County, and topping up while you run errands can stretch your electric miles. If the battery is empty, the V6 simply takes over. 1 Find the cord Ask whether the original charging cord comes with the vehicle. Used plug in hybrids sometimes lose it along the way. 2 Check your outlet Use a dedicated outlet in good shape. Skip extension cords unless the owner's guide allows them. 3 Plan for Level 2 If you drive locally most days, a Level 2 charger at home is what makes electric driving routine. Shop Used Lincoln Aviator See Lincoln CPO Is It a Good Road Trip Vehicle? Yes, and this is the part that surprises people who haven't owned a plug in hybrid. Once the battery is spent, the Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring drives like a hybrid, and the V6 carries you as far as the fuel tank allows. There's no hunting for chargers on a run down I-70 or out to Lake of the Ozarks. Three rows still matter on those trips. Kids in the back, bags behind them, and the power of the combined system when you merge or pass on a two lane road. If you plan to tow, check the rating in the owner's guide for that specific vehicle, because the plug in version and the gas Lincoln Aviator weren't rated the same. St. Peters driver tip Heading out Highway 94 toward Defiance for a winery afternoon, try Preserve EV on I-64 and Highway 364, then switch to Pure EV once you're on the winding two lane through wine country. You save the battery for the slow miles where electric driving is quietest, and the engine handles the highway part where it's most at home. What Should You Check Before Buying a Pre Owned Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring? Start with the basics you'd check on any used three row SUV: service records, tires, brakes, and how the cabin has held up. Then add a few things that only apply to a plug in hybrid. Charging doesn't start or stops early Plug it in during the test drive or ask us to. A charge port that won't take a charge is something to sort out before you sign. Hybrid or charging warning messages Any message about the hybrid system, the high voltage battery or charging deserves a diagnostic scan. Open recalls or field service actions Ask for a VIN check. Plug in hybrids can have software updates and recalls specific to the hybrid system. Missing charging cord Confirm the cord is with the vehicle. Replacing it later is an extra cost and an extra errand. A Lincoln Certified Pre Owned Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring goes through Lincoln's certification inspection, and some original warranty coverage on the hybrid components may still apply depending on age and miles. Ask the team to check exactly what remains on any vehicle you're considering. Service is mostly normal Lincoln Aviator service. The engine still needs oil changes, the brakes and tires wear like any SUV, and the hybrid system adds its own checks. Our service team works on these regularly, and the 12 month or 12,000 mile warranty on genuine Lincoln parts listed on our service department page applies to parts we install. Warranty Forever on qualifying vehicles Buy a qualifying new or pre owned vehicle here and Warranty Forever covers the engine, transmission and drive axle parts named in the agreement for as long as you own it, with no deductible on covered repairs. Ask the team whether the vehicle you're looking at qualifies, and keep up the maintenance the agreement lists. Learn About Warranty Forever Questions Owners Ask About the Plug In System Do I have to plug in a Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring? + No. It runs as a hybrid on the V6 even with an empty battery. Plugging in is how you get the electric miles, so most owners charge whenever they can. What does Preserve EV mode do? + It holds the battery charge for later in the trip, so you can save electric driving for slower roads or your neighborhood. Does cold weather affect electric range? + Yes. Cold batteries hold and deliver less energy, and cabin heat draws power too. Expect fewer electric miles on a January morning than in May. Questions Owners Ask About Range and Figures How far can it go on electricity alone? + It varies with the model year, weather, speed and battery age. Check the original window sticker for the rated figure, or ask our team to look it up by VIN. How long does it take to charge? + Charge time depends on your outlet or charger and how empty the battery is. A Level 2 charger at home is much faster than a standard outlet. Ask us for the figure on a specific vehicle. What fuel does the Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring use? + Check the fuel door label and owner's guide for the recommended grade on the vehicle you're looking at. Questions Owners Ask About Buying One Today Can I still buy a new Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring? + No. Lincoln built the plug in Grand Touring through the 2023 model year. The current Lincoln Aviator uses the twin turbo V6 without the plug in system. Is a Certified Pre Owned Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring a good idea? + Certification adds an inspection and Lincoln CPO coverage, which helps on a vehicle with a hybrid system. Ask what coverage remains on the specific vehicle. Can I trade in my current vehicle toward one? + Yes. Start with our Value Your Trade estimate online, then confirm the number with a quick in person appraisal. Questions Owners Ask About Service Does a plug in hybrid need different maintenance? + The engine still gets oil changes and the usual checks. The hybrid system adds its own inspections. Your service advisor can tell you what's due by mileage. Can you service the hybrid system at the St. Peters store? + Yes. Book through the scheduler or call 636-441-4400 and mention the Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring so the right technician time is set aside. Do brakes last longer on a plug in hybrid? + The electric motor helps slow the vehicle, which can take some load off the brakes. They still wear, so have them measured at each visit. Questions Owners Ask About Visiting Dave Sinclair Lincoln St. Peters Where is the store? + We're at 4760 North Service Road in St. Peters, along I-70. The number for sales and service is 636-441-4400. When is the sales team open? + Sales is open Monday through Friday 9 AM to 7 PM and Saturday 9 AM to 5:30 PM.

Compare  |  St. Peters, MO Two three row luxury SUVs that chase different feelings. One sits you high and quiet, the other drives smaller than it is. Most families who come in comparing these two already have a short list of two, and the Lincoln Aviator and the Acura MDX land on it together a lot. They're close in size, they both carry seven people, and they both cost real money. Where they split is how they feel from the driver's seat and how the cabin treats the people behind you. We sell Lincolns, so you know where we stand. We'll still give the Acura MDX a fair shake, because a family that buys the wrong SUV for the way they drive is unhappy for five years, and that doesn't help anybody. Below we cover the third row, the drive on our local highways, the screens and controls, and who each one suits. Quick answer: Pick the Lincoln Aviator if you want a quiet, upscale cabin, strong twin turbo V6 power and a big screen with Google built in. Pick the Acura MDX if you want a lighter, sportier feel, Super Handling All Wheel Drive on many trims and a slightly simpler cabin. Drive both on I-70 with your family in the seats before you decide. Seats Both carry up to seven Lincoln Aviator feel Quiet and powerful Acura MDX feel Light and sporty In this post The big differences Third row and cargo How they drive Screens and controls Which one fits you How Do the Lincoln Aviator and Acura MDX Differ at First Glance? The 2025 Lincoln Aviator was refreshed with a new face and a new dashboard. Every one runs a twin turbo V6 with a 10 speed automatic. Rear wheel drive is standard and all wheel drive is available, which matters here more than people think once the first ice storm rolls through St. Charles County. Lincoln dropped the Aviator plug in hybrid after the 2023 model year, so a new Lincoln Aviator on the lot this spring is gas only. The 2025 Acura MDX also got updates, mostly inside. Acura replaced its old touchpad with a touchscreen and added Google built in. Power comes from a V6, and the Acura MDX Type S uses a turbocharged V6 for buyers who want more. Super Handling All Wheel Drive comes on many trims and does a good job of pulling the SUV through a corner. There's no hybrid Acura MDX either. So the spec sheets look closer than the vehicles feel. The Lincoln Aviator is built around comfort and calm. The Acura MDX is built around a lighter, more athletic drive. Neither one is wrong. They just answer different questions. Which Third Row Works Better for a St. Charles County Family? Think of both third rows as kid seats, or adult seats for a short hop. That's normal in this size class. The bigger question is how often you'll use them and who climbs back there. If you carpool to Cottleville soccer fields three nights a week, how easy the second row slides out of the way will matter more than any number in a brochure. Our advice is simple and a little old fashioned. Bring the people. Put your tallest teenager in the third row of the Lincoln Aviator, then do the same in the Acura MDX. Have them buckle in, ride for ten minutes, and get out without help. Then fold the third row flat and load the stroller, the hockey bag or the cooler you take to the lake. You'll know in a few minutes which one fits your routine. Check the second row too. Bench seating and captain's chairs change both the seat count and how easy the walk to the back is, and the layout varies by trim on each SUV. Ask us which layout a specific Lincoln Aviator in stock has before you come out. Shop New Lincoln Inventory Value Your Trade How Do They Drive on I-70 and Highway 364? On the highway the Lincoln Aviator feels like a bigger vehicle in a good way. The twin turbo V6 pulls hard when you merge onto I-70 from Mid Rivers Mall Drive, and the cabin stays quiet at speed. It's the one you want for the four hour run to Lake of the Ozarks with everyone asleep before you clear Warrenton. Steering is light and easy, and the ride leans soft. The Acura MDX feels smaller than it is. Steering is quicker, the body stays flatter in a curve, and Super Handling All Wheel Drive helps it hook through the ramps off Highway 364. People who used to drive a sport sedan often like it right away. The tradeoff is a ride most drivers describe as firmer, and that shows up on the broken pavement around older parts of St. Charles. If you tow a small boat or a utility trailer, ask for the exact rating on the vehicle you're looking at. Tow ratings change with trim and equipment, so we'd rather read it off the vehicle than guess. St. Peters driver tip Make your test drive a real loop. Start in stop and go traffic on Mid Rivers Mall Drive, jump on I-70 west for an exit or two, then come back across Highway 364 and the Page Avenue bridge. That gives you city crawl, a highway merge and a long bridge at speed, which covers most of what you'll do in a week. What Is the Tech Like Inside Each One? The 2025 Lincoln Aviator uses the Lincoln Digital Experience, a Google based system with a wide center touchscreen, Google Maps and Google Assistant. Most climate controls moved into the screen. Some owners love it after a week, and some miss the old knobs. Spend five minutes in the parking lot setting the temperature and pairing your phone before you judge it. Acura made a big change for 2025 too. The touchpad many owners disliked is gone, and the screen now responds to touch. Google built in comes along with it. If you test drove an older Acura MDX and walked away over the touchpad, it's worth a second look. Driver assist features differ by trim on both. The 2025 Lincoln Aviator lineup includes BlueCruise hands free highway driving, and on the Lincoln side the Lincoln Aviator model page and our sales team can walk you through how the subscription works on a given vehicle. We'd hedge on Acura specifics by trim and point you to the window sticker. Which One Fits Your Family? This is how we'd sort it out with a family sitting across the desk from us. The Lincoln Aviator fits you if You spend real time on I-70 and want a quiet, calm cabin You like strong V6 pull for merges and passing You want Google based tech on a big screen You value a soft, relaxed ride over sharp handling You want to buy and service at the same St. Peters store The Acura MDX fits you if You like a lighter, sportier feel behind the wheel You want Super Handling All Wheel Drive on many trims You prefer a firmer ride that stays flat in corners You came from a sport sedan and miss that feel You don't mind trading some quiet for agility Neither one is wrong. They just answer different questions. If you're stuck in the middle, drive both on the same day. The one you'd pick for the drive home is usually the right call.

Do both SUVs offer captain's chairs in the second row? + Second row layouts vary by trim on the Lincoln Aviator and the Acura MDX. Check the specific vehicle, since the layout changes the seat count and the walk to the third row. Which one holds more cargo behind the third row? + Both are tight with every seat up, which is normal for the class. Bring the gear you haul most and load it into each one. That tells you more than a cargo number.
