2025 Lincoln Aviator Horsepower, Torque & More

The 2025 Lincoln Aviator lineup has a powerful 3.0L twin-turbocharged V6 engine that is paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. Learn about the basic capabilities of this engine, including how much horsepower the Lincoln Aviator can deliver, below, and let us know if you have any questions: 

 

Twin-Turbocharged 3.0L V6 with Auto Start-Stop Technology

Standard on: Aviator Premiere, Aviator Reserve, and Lincoln Aviator Black Label 

  • Horsepower: 400 hp @ 5,500 rpm
  • Torque: 415 lb-ft of torque @ 3,000 rpm

 

While horsepower tells us how much power the engine can produce and contribute to the maximum speed of the Aviator, torque is indisputably more important when it comes to determining the towing capacity of the Lincoln Aviator. Torque refers to the rotating force produced by the engine's crankshaft, and it directly impacts the engine's ability to do "work." Thanks to its impressive torque figures, the Lincoln Aviator can tow up to 5,000 pounds when equipped with the Class III Trailer Tow Package. This package is included on the Premiere and Reserve trims and comes with the following: 

 

Class III Trailer Tow Package

  • 4-Pin and 7-Pin Connectors
  • Blind Spot Information System with Trailer Coverage
  • Class III Hitch and Wiring
  • Smart Trailer Tow
  • Trailer Sway Control

You can also consult your owner's manual to find out about OEM-suggested maintenance schedules as well as what kind of maintenance needs to be conducted and when. 

Lincoln Aviator Weight: GVWR vs. Curb Weight

Towing capacity is also determined by the weight of the Lincoln Aviator. Specifically, you must never exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of the 2025 Aviator when you decide to hook up a trailer for a weekend getaway outside of Dublin. GVWR refers to the maximum allowable weight of a fully loaded vehicle (including passengers and cargo). This is different from the curb weight of the Lincoln Aviator, which refers to its empty weight (i.e., without passengers, cargo, and fuel). To stay within safe bounds, the combined weight of the Aviator and its cargo (including passengers, fuel, and anything inside the car or in an attached trailer) must not exceed the vehicle's GVWR. 

 

You can find the GVWR of the Lincoln Aviator on the Safety Compliance Certification Label, which is located on the driver's side door lock facing or the door latch post pillar. You can also contact us or consult your owner's manual for more information.
