US luxury carmaker Lincoln started a 10-day test-drive of its full-size Navigator from Dec 15 in Yunnan province.

The model, which was unveiled in late November in China, measures 5,269 mm in length, 2,001 in width and 1,981 mm in height, with its wheelbase reaching 3,022 mm.

It sports a 3.5-liter EcoBoost engine and a six-speed automatic gearbox, the twin turbocharged, direct injection engine delivers a maximum output of 261 kW and a top torque of 576 Nm.

Another highlight of the model is its roomy space. It provides 2,926 liters of cargo space behind the first row, 1,542 liters of cargo space behind the second row, and 514 liters of cargo space behind the third row.

The Control Trac Four-Wheel-Drive system enhances traction on slippery surfaces, thus helping improve handling on wet roads and enabling off-road capability.

The Navigator is also equipped with electric power-assisted steering. This allows for more consistent and precise control of the vehicle through a range of speeds while making it easier to maneuver at low speeds and, in particular, making it easier to park.

The Lincoln Drive Control option adds Lincoln's Continuously Controlled Damping, also known as CCD, a suspension system that monitors multiple vehicle sensors and road conditions every two milliseconds and adjusts suspension needs accordingly.

The CCD also provides a smoother and improved ride－the best-ever for the Navigator－and allows the driver to customize the ride by selecting one of three different control modes: Normal, Sport or Comfort.
