I drove Navigator for 3 years before i switched to Escalade. I can confidently say Navigator beats Escalade easily. Escalade my have the tough look but thats it. Driver comfort, tech, interior styling go to Navigator.
Looks are subjective and everyone has their preference, but for me I like the exterior of the Caddy, and the interior of Lincoln. The Lincoln has a more pleasing and upscale design. It's almost like a modern interpretation of what American luxury used to be in its hey-day without being retro. Don't get me wrong, the Cadillac has nice materials, but the design is rather modern-day bland. Slapping a bunch of screens together and calling it a day on a vehicle that costs that much may be OK for some people, but I think the Escallade deserves a better interior. Something that doesn't look like the dash, door panels, and seats were all designed by different departments that didn't communicate with each other till it was too late. When you spend 100k or more, do you prefer an interior that looks like it was nicely crafted and well designed, or one that looks a little blah and possibly looks outdated before it's time. Again, opinions will vary, but I love Cadillacs old and new, and I want them to step up their game with every model when it comes to their interior design, especially when every other manufacturer has done it. If Jeep can put out a stunning interior, Cadillac definitely has no excuse.
This is the first time the Navigator looks better than the Escalade in my opinion. The Navigator looks more sophisticated and elegant than the Escalade. I take this Navigator over the Escalade any day, all day!!!!
Well done, it is elegant, stylish, and classy. It does not look like it has been tampered with in its design to make it scream and say “I am here” like the Escalade does.
The Lincoln is truly lovely inside and out, only the dash screen is too much like in the Escalade!. The Escalade does look more impressive and substantial!.. The front clip of the Navigator needs more presence!
In the spring of 2025, Lincoln will reveal the Hybrid version of the Navigator. Rumor has it going with 550 HP and close to 700 PFT. Said to travel 25 miles on batteries before the engine kicks in. Different interior and exterior look to set it apart from the other models. This thing will be sick.
A very good comparison, it shows, that Lincoln went away a bit from the Range Rover Design to battle Cadillac, for my opinion there is still not enough Lincoln design on it, and where is a real top model Continental Sedan?? 🏁 The Escalade is the benchmark in design in this field, yes, as another post said, the interior in the Cadillac could have even more refinement..🇺🇸🏁
I’m not a huge guy but at 6’3” I can’t fit in the back of the Escalade. The B pillar is always right in the way of my feet. I fly a lot for business and usually get picked up in either an Escalade, Navigator, the Cadillac sedan, or a Continental, and every time the Lincoln is noticeably more comfortable. It’s always a better ride, quieter, and has better quality fit and finish.
The Navigator looks more modern and has a classy and quiet finish, unlike the Escalade, which screams to be seen. The Escalade is expensive in its exterior and interior appearance, desired by those who feel like they are in their late teens. In addition, the Navigator is like a luxurious royal yacht, and it is more comfortable and quieter than the Escalade. Ford puts a lot of effort into its luxury brand, Lincoln. I am not a Ford fanatic. If the Cadillac was better, I would say so without a doubt. This is how I feel.
You didn't mention that the new navigator now has air ride option too. Although we don't know how it performs, but I'm pretty sure it will be a massive improvement over the previous jittery ride like you said.
Lincoln would have made a version with a V8 at least, there'd be a chance, because it's extremely good inside. And so far, the Cadillac looks interesting with a v8 engine.
@@alexandera3200 the twin turbo set up makes the lincoln faster than the regular escalade. You can feel that 500 plus lb ft tq. American cars are just starting to do the lower dispacement engines while mercedes has been doing this over the last 10 years. I wish the cadillac would remove the muscle car engine and replace it with a 4.4, 4.0, 0r 3.6 liter twin turbo set up. Even corvette is steering away from the 6.2.
@@adriansmith107 except that sales have shown that small liters aren't coveted. And the Escalade has a V8 with a compressor. But in general, such cars are taken not just to drive asses as in Mercedes, but also to pull trailers. And already different tests show that overheating and small liters have higher chances.
@@BruceDragon-sf1tr i didn't say Lincoln was bad, interior-wise I've always liked it better. But I would prefer an atmospheric engine for this class of car
Why is it that you didn’t show or discuss the details on the different interior levels with its power massaging seats and especially the rear seat executive package in the Cadillac like you did on the Lincoln. You never mentioned the Escalade comes with 3 different engine choices. And you didn’t show the power opening and closing doors function but to your credit you did at least mention it in passing.
I only have 2 questions. 1. Why didn’t you use the acceleration numbers from the more comparable standard 6.2 engine for the Escalade? 2. Why isn’t the Grand Wagoneer also in this comparison?
So like so many, you cannot admit what was better. You choose to let it be open and decide for oneself! Wow, how convincing ! Lincoln lovers will side on Lincoln and the same for Cadillac. Have you noticed lately, these sites will not take side on one or the other. So many are doing the same, but they make you watch the comparison video, but make no commitment to what was better. They got you to watcxh, and that is the name of the game. Oh yes, it is a game!
The big daddy caddy is confident and fresh. GM is mastering the screen dash game so far. That said there’s a lot to say about the Navigator’s quiet approach to luxury. I’ve always preferred that approach. The dash and overall look of the aviator and nautilus is pure perfection. I think Lincoln could’ve been a bit more creative with the Nav. As a Ford owner, for the first time I’m stumped between the Caddy and Lincoln.
I like the Caddy’s lights an all.. nice styling too!! But I have always been a Lincoln and Ford man… Navigator for me.. Ford you need to make a new Mercury Maurader💯💯💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾 or 👑Crown Vic
Caddy all the way ,looks ,V8 and interior ! Nav is too busy and bling does not make class ! The seats are weird in the Nav big black plastic backs ,,wtf !
@craigroosa9321 I thought the same thing about the ugly plastic on the seats. The whole lincoln just looks unrefined and the design team just threw a bunch of crap together with no continuity.
I can hear the conversation when i pull up ... Navigator: oooh thats nice, i really l Iike that. That is cuuuuute (says all the aunties at the cookout) Escalde: Boy who you think you is, thats what im talkin bout ! Alright boss. That thing looks mean as hell (says all the uncles,cousins,nephews)
I get a discount on both, so it's a win-win for me! Shout out to all my Family & Freinds who's building the Caddy in the D! I myself with others build the Navigator in Kentucky! I gotta say that Caddy is nice but I gotta roll with what I build.
Totally Navigator. Love it's styling. Smooth beautiful lines. Great overall look. Plus the engine is quick and better gas mileage than the Escalade. The Escalade is upright and boxy with that horrible blue whale front end.
Lincoln has ditched their old vintage luxury interior themes and are now chasing Cadillac’s tech forward interiors around except they aren’t executing the style as nearly as well. Navigator’s interior looks a mess compared to the Cadillac.
both of them are overdone for the screen. Since I'm tight on budget, so instead of financing a 2025 cadillac escalade. I'm going to save money for additional 2-3 years and buy a 2023 or 2024 escalade in 2026 or 2027. That generation has a good balance of classy and modern technology, and I can save tons of interests
Lincoln should make a Navigator V with a TUNED ecoboost engine the Lincoln is niceut I would rather have the Caddy !!
Just throw the Shelby GT500 Super snake engine on it and bam.
I drove Navigator for 3 years before i switched to Escalade. I can confidently say Navigator beats Escalade easily. Escalade my have the tough look but thats it. Driver comfort, tech, interior styling go to Navigator.
Lincoln is quite simple luxury … Cadillac is bold and dynamic
@@christopherstreet2214 I like that, it fits well.
@@christopherstreet2214 agreed. I like the simple elegance.
Gimme that huge horsepower combined with the Cadillac luxury.
I definitely much prefer the Escalade, it looks better and is more luxurious.

Honestly, Cadillac has been the best Luxury SUV money can buy for a while now 🤷♂️
you must have never seen the cullinan
The Rolls Royce Cullinan just looks like a funeral car😄… That thing is so boring I almost fell asleep, when you mentioned it 😂…
Not a Ford/Lincoln guy at all, but the Navigator is a work of art
I Will Take The Lincoln
@@lacarseojohnson3726 buy it
The Escalade hands down the most menacing look in this segment. My ultimate dream SUV
Too boxy with a horrible front end.
Is very simple the escalade is the more beautiful thing in the planet❤😂😂😂😂😂😂
❤ the Cadillac Escalade.
The Lincoln is truly lovely inside and out, only the dash screen is too much like in the Escalade!. The Escalade does look more impressive and substantial!.. The front clip of the Navigator needs more presence!
Navigator wins.....style & Luxury
I love them both 😊
The Navigator definitely looks better and the Escalade to me is just more flashier
Escalde is King of the SUV's!
Escalade < French definition in military to scale the walls!
Lincoln actually understood the assignment for the first time in a long time and passed
Niceee both suvs are beautiful in their on way, Lincoln really stepped it up but not enough to dethrone the Escalade.
One thing you didnt show is the power opening and closing doors on the Escalade! Cadillac has that as an option yet you didn't show that.
@@erichaley4485 yes, i wondered, too!
i will be adding that on my next video 🤗
@erichaley4485 2 min in they talked about that.
@@Luxurywheels.7do a full video on the Cadillac Escalade esv v executive it's about time they did a 2nd row console it looks better
Cadillac executive addition has my attention
Their both beautiful.

Lincoln Navigator for sure.......

Escalade! Hands down! And numbers don't lie!
Escalade air ride
Lincoln Navigator posh seats to absorb the road vs suspension. 3rd row in navigator hits like a Ford F150 on the bumps.

Lincoln has the best exterior while Cadillac has the best interior. I will go for the Cadillac
the caddy side profile looks more van like at least to me. lincoln for me.
Wow, I wish driving long-distance by a white Cadillac, from Tennesse all the way to DC
Cadillac to Lincoln “whatever you can do, I can do better!!!”
That Lincoln is 🔥
Trash reliability.
@@Wes.jumpss str8 hater vibes
@@Wes.jumpss Lincoln is more reliable than Cadillac
Lincoln Navy winner 😎
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I want them both
White caddy 🎉
Still Escalade remains the KING OF ROADS.❤
Navi All The Way!!
First time the Lincoln looks better than the Caddy. Took them long enough!
Escalade all day!

That is awesome!
Cadillac is too utilitarian looking, Lincoln looks more 'plush'. They're both nice though.
No competition to the Cadillac V.👍
Escalade. There’s literally no contest.
Navigator feels more bold luxury. Escalade is light
Navigator 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
2 cars way outta my price range, I’ll take either one tho
Escalade looks better in my opinion. But the navigator is still amazing
Cadilac,Lincoln,Gmc,Chevrolet - ONE CAR = FORD
Tahoe vs Yukon
2025
Lincoln for sure. Love my 2023 aviator and def ordering a 2025 navigator black label. Cadillac doesn't even come close
I saw a Cadillac the other day and I held my nose and said “p-u”
@@tomgjonaj9965 no doubt navigator looks great but eacalade is next level with power doors pluss 55 inch Lcd rather than navi has 44 inch
Difference is Navigator more looks like , A Chinese Car with eletricals, and Escalade is more like True American Suv.
Escalade looks better.
If you’re a peasant
Totally disagree.
But it’s just a personal thing
And that goes a long way
Wrong
Shoutout to Henry Leland for giving us Lincoln and Cadillac
Somehow Donnie Brasco pops in my head when talking about Caddy vs Lincoln....
Cadillac is pure luxury. Lincoln is second grade luxury end of story.
Caddy all day!!
Lincoln me please ❤
New is almost always Better. So, LINCOLN.
These cars are better than the range Rover which isy dream car
Escalade= Sporty type car
Lincoln= Smooth cruiser type car
It depends to the people what they like.
Totally Navigator. Love it's styling. Smooth beautiful lines. Great overall look. Plus the engine is quick and better gas mileage than the Escalade. The Escalade is upright and boxy with that horrible blue whale front end.
Couldn't agree more!
Escalade still the KING .
Sorry for Lincoln .
Lincoln navigator más estilo más exclusividad lincoln navigator siempre
Cadillac has a front end that says “Get out of my Way”. Thing is intimidating looking in your mirrors.
Cadillac 💪🏾
The Escalade is a better vehicle overall.
@@TheTonecii i agree...only thing Lincoln beat them on this time was the 3rd leg room
caddy for the win
Cadillac best SUV
The Hog/Caddy has a better front end and superior tech. Which one has the superior ride capability? Lincoln Black Label is definitely no slouch!!
Wow!
Lincoln is more luxurious. Cadillac gives you mechanical flexibility. Let the mind games begin.
Y’all say that but can’t explain how Lincoln is more luxury.
@@G-Rated lincoln is better currently but caddy was far better than current gen Navigator
Cadillac did a great job with the front fascia but the rear end is dated and dumpy. Range Rovers have the sleek taillights the Escalade SHOULD have.
This new Lincoln Navigator doesn’t even stand next to the current Cadillac Escalade lowest trim.🤷♂️

get one of each then a wagoneer grand to rotate them
