Standard Safety Features Across All Trims
Lincoln Co-Pilot360 and Core Driver-Assist Technologies
Every 2025 Aviator includes Lincoln Co-Pilot360, a fully loaded suite of active safety features designed to help avoid accidents. These include:
- Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking: Applies brakes automatically when a forward collision is detected.
- Blind Spot Information System (BLIS) with Cross-Traffic Alert: Alerts you to vehicles in your blind spot or approaching from the side while reversing.
- Lane-Keeping System: Detects lane drift and provides gentle steering assistance.
- Auto High-Beam Headlamps: Switches between high and low beams based on surrounding light and traffic.
These features function proactively, mitigating the risk of potential accidents. The Lincoln Aviator's passive safety features, like airbags and a reinforced body structure, are reactive and there to protect occupants if a crash does occur.
Airbag System and Cabin Protection
The Aviator includes seven airbags: dual front, driver and passenger knee, front-seat side, and side-curtain airbags that cover all three rows. The cabin structure uses high-strength steel and includes side-impact protection to absorb energy in the event of a collision.
Everyday Safety Tech and Child Safety
Features like AdvanceTrac with Roll Stability Control work in the background to help maintain control in slippery or emergency conditions, especially important in a taller SUV like the Aviator. Everyday safety features that come standard include:
- Electronic Stability and Traction Control
- Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS): Important in mitigating the chance of a tyre blowout
- Post-Collision Braking: Helps reduce the chance of a secondary collision after an impact
For families, the second row includes the LATCH system for easier child seat installation. Optional second-row inflatable seatbelts provide added protection for younger passengers.
Advanced Driver-Assistance Technologies
Hands-Free Driving Capabilities
Trims equipped with Lincoln BlueCruise 1.2 enable hands-free driving on designated highways. It supports lane centering, in-lane repositioning, and automatic lane changes, helping ease fatigue during long trips.
Camera and Sensor Systems
The Aviator's camera and sensor tech includes:
- 360-Degree Camera System: Displays a bird's-eye view of the vehicle's surroundings for easier maneuvering in tight spaces
- Rear View Camera with Washer: Offers a wide-angle view behind the vehicle for safer reversing and maintains lens clarity in dusty or wet conditions
- Front and Rear Parking Sensors: Detect nearby obstacles and alert the driver during low-speed maneuvers
These features help with parking, enhance towing visibility, and boost overall situational awareness.
Parking and Emergency Reversal Tech
Active Park Assist 2.0 allows the Aviator to steer, brake, and accelerate into parallel or perpendicular parking spots with the press of a button. Reverse Brake Assist monitors obstacles behind the vehicle and can automatically apply the brakes when potential danger is detected.
Safety Ratings and Evaluations
The IIHS has already evaluated the 2025 Aviator, scoring high marks in key crash tests such as small overlap front, moderate overlap front and side crash tests. In addition, its standard front crash prevention system received a good rating. Although the 2025 Lincoln Aviator has not been assigned a Top Safety Pick or Top Safety Pick+ destination, its strong performance in the crash tests may have made the model eligible for one of these awards.
Optional Safety Enhancements
Higher trims and packages offer enhanced features such as:
- Adaptive Pixel LED Headlamps
- Head-Up Display
- Night Vision Assist: Uses infrared sensors to detect pedestrians and animals beyond the visible range of headlights
- Enhanced Active Park Assist
These upgrades expand visibility, reduce distractions, and give drivers added confidence, especially in low-light or high-traffic situations.
