How it scores for you10 scores
Plush, powerful American three-row luxury with up to 494 hp and 6,700-lb towing; early-build quality gremlins and steep depreciation dent the case.
Recalled far more often than cars of the same model years (over-the-air software recalls count half); 13 of its 51 recalls were serious. About 5% of its owner complaints describe a crash, fire or injury. Based on recalls and serious defect reports — it doesn't capture everyday repairs or problems fixed by warranty extensions. Adjusted -8 points for its wider reputation.
Not yet crash-tested by NHTSA, so this is scored as middle-of-the-road.
About $2,800 a year in fuel (EPA estimate) — cheaper to run than about 44% of cars we track.
18.3 cu ft of cargo space — more than about 25% of other SUVs we track.
Roomy three rows; the second row is excellent, the third usable.
400-494 hp moves it briskly; soft tuning and mass keep it a cruiser.
Big Sync screens and slick displays, marred by frequent software glitches.
Serene ride (especially air-sprung) and a lovely cabin; a genuine American-luxury statement.
Luxury brands like Lincoln tend to lose value faster than average.
Rated to tow 6,700 lb; all- or four-wheel drive available.
