The 2021 Lincoln Aviator comes with a 4 yr./ 50000 mi. basic warranty, a unlimited yr./ unlimited mi. roadside warranty, and a 6 yr./ 70000 mi. powertrain warranty.Minor changes to option and appearance packages.
Pros Upscale design inside and out Powerful standard engine provides quick acceleration Lots of advanced features Available plug-in hybrid powertrain
Cons Doesn't have an abundance of headroom Overly soft handling saps driver confidence Subpar visibility to the front and rear
The 2021 Lincoln Aviator drops sensational style and space, but the Grand Touring plug-in’s a bit of a misfire.
Pros A 7/8ths Navigator Big infotainment displays Hybrid plug-in Lots of room for four adults Gorgeous Black Label interiors
Cons It’s $$$$ Third row is small The V-6 moans Grand Touring: not electric enough?
The Aviator sees only minor changes for 2021, including optional 21- and 22-inch wheel designs, three new colors (Asher Gray, Ocean Drive Blue, and Flight Blue), and an available Monochromatic Reserve appearance package. The Reserve trim receives a panoramic sunroof, and the top-flight Black Label gains soft-close doors. The Elements package—found on the Reserve and Grand Touring models—now comes with heated and ventilated front seats.
Pros Polished turbo V-6 powertrain, comfortable interior, plenty of curb appeal.
Cons Unrefined optional hybrid powertrain, disappointing fuel economy, most expensive Black Label trim encroaches Navigator's price range.
No significant changes for 2021.
Pros Generous cargo and passenger room Quiet and smooth ride Plenty of standard features Lots of device charging solutions
Cons Many advanced safety features only available on top trim levels Pricier than non-luxury rivals, but cabin materials aren't much nicer Thirstier than V6-powered competitors
The 2021 Buick Enclave is the smoother, smothering three-row crossover in GM’s stable.
Pros Great look Comfortable ride Good touchscreen Handsome interior
Cons Automatic braking not available on all models Limited body colors on base version Spendy Avenir Not very fuel-efficient
Buick's three-row family SUV rolls over to 2021 with only a few tweaks. Premium and Avenir models now come standard with power-adjustable lumbar support for the front seats and a massage feature, while the air ionizer is no longer available. Those two top models also receive a formerly optional package of driver-assistance features—including automated emergency braking and lane-keeping assist—as standard.
Pros Upscale exterior styling, plenty of tech features are standard, large cargo bay.
Cons Down-market interior materials, no standard driver-assists on lower trims, V-6 engine isn't particularly efficient.
