We were told at last year's
L.A. Auto Show that the base 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 would make 400 horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque. Lincoln's spec sheet shows it’s still going to make 400 horsepower, but the torque figure is now up to 415 pound-feet. We're looking at the same spec sheet, but a hat tip to
CarBuzz for noticing the change first. The
plug-in hybrid model has received an even larger bump to its ratings.
Lincoln said it would be 450 horsepower and 600 pound-feet of torque combined, but it’s actually going to be 494 horsepower and 630 pound-feet of torque. We were a bit slack-jawed at the numbers before, and this just takes it one step further.
Lincoln still isn’t quoting any acceleration numbers, but with this amount of power, something in the 4- to 5-second range seems likely for a 0-60 mph time. It’s a legitimate shot across the bow in the German SUV horsepower wars. That said, the
Aviator persona comes across as much more muscle car-like than a performance SUV meant to tackle lap times like the
AMGs and
M car SUVs of the world.
We don’t know the all-electric range yet, but Lincoln did tell us the size of the battery pack and the electric motor’s output. Aviator PHEVs will be working with a 13.6 kWh battery pack and a 101-horsepower electric motor. There are two modes: One is called Preserve
EV, and the other is called Pure EV. Preserve EV is able to charge the battery up to 75 percent using the engine while driving, whereas Pure EV is designed to keep the car in electric-only mode. You’ll get blue accents in the Lincoln star if you buy the plug-in hybrid, too.
