The Lincoln Navigator is a premium full-size sport utility vehicle.

On the heels of a major redesign in 2003, the 2004 model receives several changes to equipment, colors and features.

As the luxury sport utility that created the class, Navigator continues with a spacious, comfortable interior and refined driving dynamics.

Navigator’s refined ride and handling are direct benefits of a four-wheel independent suspension, rack-and-pinion steering and a stiff frame.

Luxury and convenience features, including optional power-deployable running boards, power-folding seats in the third row and a power liftgate, provide a comfortable experience for Navigator’s occupants.

The refined exterior and interior mix design cues from the 1961 Lincoln Continental with modern finishes and white light-emitting-diode technology.

An updated DVD-based navigation system, which was introduced on the 2003 Navigator, continues to be available for 2004. The system includes voice activation, a touch-screen system interface, in-dash six-disc CD changer and quick coordinate recalculation.

Navigator is built in Wayne, Mich.

Design and Equipment
Navigator’s distinctive design includes a number of industry-first features and options that improve comfort, convenience and utility.

The interior mixes walnut burl, premium leather trim, satin nickel finishes and white light-emitting-diode lighting to create a luxurious and contemporary cabin.

Navigator has available first-in-the-industry power running boards that quietly deploy a full four inches from the rocker panel when a door is opened, then retract automatically when the door is closed. A power liftgate that can raise or lower the door in about 10 seconds is also available.

Powertrain
A 300-horsepower DOHC 5.4-liter InTech™ V-8 powers the Navigator. It is mated to a four-speed automatic transmission with either two- or four-wheel drive.

The engine has lightweight aluminum pistons with low-friction coated skirts, low-tension rings and floating pins with cracked powdered metal connecting rods.

A fail-safe cooling feature allows the vehicle to be driven temporarily if coolant loss is detected, preventing the driver from becoming stranded.

Safety
Navigator’s well-balanced chassis, precise steering and powerful brakes provide the first measure of defense in emergencies: controllability. If a collision is unavoidable, a robust frame and a comprehensive portfolio of safety features help protect the driver and passengers.

For 2004, Roll Stability Control has been added to vehicles equipped with AdvanceTrac™ . The system adds a new industry-leading technology that can reduce the risk of untripped vehicle rollovers. The system also provides drivers with an interactive vehicle dynamics aid that can help correct oversteer and understeer skids.

Additional safety features include Safety Canopy™, dual front air bags and a standard tire-pressure monitoring system.
