2020 Lincoln Navigator - Electric Vehicle Guide
The 2020 Lincoln Navigator belongs to a Lincoln Navigator lineup that Know Your Ride tracks across 13 model years, from 2000 to 2026. It is an all-electric vehicle, so it skips the oil changes, spark plugs and exhaust-system service of a combustion Navigator entirely. It is configured as rear-wheel drive with an automatic (s10). The 2020 sits mid-run, with both earlier (2000) and later (2026) Navigator model years also documented.
The high-voltage battery is covered for 8 years or 100,000 miles, separate from the bumper-to-bumper warranty. Routine upkeep centers on tire rotation, DOT 4 brake fluid, Motorcraft Gold battery/cabin coolant, cabin air filters and brake service rather than engine oil. Know Your Ride lists 15 scheduled maintenance items for this vehicle, the earliest interval falling at 5,000 miles. Documented torque values include lug nut 100 ft-lb.
