The 2025 Lincoln Navigator introduced a wellness-focused innovation that transforms how drivers experience downtime in their vehicle. Among the most intriguing features is Aurora Borealis—not a physical interior trim, but rather a multi-sensory digital experience within the Lincoln Rejuvenate system. This feature combines visual, tactile, auditory, and olfactory elements to create a stationary sanctuary for relaxation.
For drivers in Barrie seeking a luxury SUV that prioritizes both performance and well-being, understanding how Aurora Borealis works within the Navigator's technology suite reveals why this vehicle stands apart in the premium segment.

Shop NowLincoln Rejuvenate represents a comprehensive approach to in-vehicle wellness. The system activates multiple vehicle features simultaneously to provide a refreshing experience targeting multiple senses. Available in five- or 10-minute sessions, Rejuvenate transforms the Navigator into a personal retreat during long road trips or after demanding workdays.
When activated while parked, the driver's seat slides rearward, reclines, warms slightly, and begins massaging. The steering wheel moves up and away to create open space. Calming visuals fill both the centre stack and the 48-inch panoramic display, complemented by ambient lighting and soothing sounds as subtle fragrance fills the cabin through the standard Lincoln Digital Scent feature—a class-exclusive offering in the Navigator.
The system operates only when specific conditions are met: the vehicle must be in park, powered on, with all doors closed and sufficient space for the driver seat to recline without obstruction from second-row seating.
Aurora Borealis stands as one of three Rejuvenate experiences included with Navigator purchase, alongside Waterfall Meditation and Elements. Unlike the Atmospheric or Enlighten Black Label interior themes—which are physical design packages featuring specific leather surfaces, wood accents, and colour schemes—Aurora Borealis exists entirely as a digital experience.
The feature unfolds across two distinct visual phases displayed on the Navigator's 48-inch panoramic display:
Phase One: Mountain Lake Sunrise
The experience begins with a serene mountain-side lake as the sun rises, creating a peaceful natural setting that promotes calm and mental clarity.
Phase Two: Northern Lights Display
The visualization transitions to ribbons of green light flowing across the night sky, replicating the ethereal movement of the aurora borealis phenomenon. This phase coordinates with the vehicle's ambient lighting system to enhance the immersive quality of the experience.
Throughout both phases, the panoramic display works in concert with the Navigator's audio system, massage functions, climate control, and digital scent diffusion to create a cohesive sensory environment designed to reduce stress and promote relaxation.
The distinction between Aurora Borealis and Lincoln Black Label themes is fundamental to understanding the Navigator's customization options:
Lincoln Black Label Themes (Physical Interior Packages):
Aurora Borealis (Digital Rejuvenate Experience):
The 2025 Navigator's 48-inch panoramic display serves as the foundation for Aurora Borealis and other Rejuvenate experiences. This expansive screen integrates the instrument cluster and centre touchscreen into a single, continuous surface that can be customized to display driver-preferred information and apps.
The display works seamlessly with the Navigator's Personal Profiles system, which associates preferences with either a key fob or Phone as a Key. This means each driver's Rejuvenate settings, favourite apps, seat positions, steering wheel adjustment, and mirror positions activate automatically upon vehicle entry.
Lincoln Premium Connectivity, included for four years, ensures the system operates with optimal responsiveness. The 5G wireless technology provides fast connectivity for integrated Google Maps, real-time traffic updates, and streaming audio services.
The Navigator comes pre-loaded with Waterfall Meditation in partnership with Calm audio. Customers receive a complimentary one-year subscription to Calm—the leading app for improved sleep, stress reduction, and mindful living—along with access to a growing library of digital, evidence-based mental health programs.
The Digital Scent feature, standard across the Navigator lineup, diffuses subtle fragrance throughout the cabin during Rejuvenate sessions. This class-exclusive capability adds an olfactory dimension to the multi-sensory experience that competitors cannot match.
Auto Air Refresh works in conjunction with the cabin particulate and odour filter to maintain air quality, while the tri-zone electronic automatic temperature control with rear auxiliary climate controls ensures optimal comfort for all occupants during Rejuvenate sessions.
To activate Aurora Borealis:
If any door opens, the vehicle shifts out of park, or the driver seat cannot recline due to second-row positioning, the session cancels and returns all feature settings to their previous state.
The Rejuvenate interface provides clear controls for session management, allowing drivers to start or stop experiences as needed.
