Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring flaunts a combined 23 MPG rating

Just as we all expected, the 2020 Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring comes with improved mileage figures than before, albeit slightly. And, as it should really be, the mileage figures for the plug-in hybrid model are more efficient than the ICE-only powered variants.

For the 2020 model year, the EPA has given the Lincoln Aviator Grand Touring a combined 23 MPG rating. Moreover, while the rear-wheel-drive SUV will return 21 MPG, the AWD trim, on the other hand, will be capable of covering a marginally shorter distance at 20 MPG.

Furthermore, if we also consider the electric assist that the SUV gets from its plug-in hybrid system, the MPGe jumps to 56 combined. The all-electric range sits at 21 miles. In the past, the previous model of the Lincoln Aviator Touring could only travel for around 18 miles per gallon.

Speaking of the power figures, the updated SUV gets an EcoBoost V6 motor that works in tandem with an electric motor to produce a total of 494 hp of maximum power, while the peak torque reads 854 Nm. Even after weighing quite a lot at almost 3 tonnes, the 2020 Lincoln Aviator Touring can do a 0 to 60 mph sprint in 5.5 seconds more or less.

The 2020 Lincoln Aviator Touring starts at $ 68,800. In case you also decide to bestow your luxury people carrier with the available optional equipment, the SUV will set you back by good $ 91,000.
