What Lincoln Aviator do most buyers choose?

The Lincoln Aviator years with the most listings are 2022, 2023, and 2021.

Those higher-volume years tend to be the easiest places to shop because you have more inventory to compare and a better chance of finding the right colour, trim, and equipment mix. They also tend to attract more attention from used buyers because they sit in a sweet spot between newer features and more approachable pricing.

What is the Lincoln Aviator's resale value?

The table shows broad double-digit price declines across every model year listed, which is good news if you’re shopping used. The steepest drops are concentrated in the older and mid-cycle years, while the newest examples have also moved down meaningfully from their earlier prices. Overall, the pattern favours buyers looking for value rather than sellers hoping for strong retention.

The 2024, 2025, and 2022 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.
