Full-Size American Luxury SUV Comparison: 2018 Lincoln Navigator vs 2018 Cadillac Escalade

  • This is a very close comparison but not an exact one-to-one Full-Size American Luxury SUV Comparison since we have the extended version of the Escalade but not the longer version of the Navigator. Also the Escalade is RWD while the Navigator is 4WD. Pricing for the 2018 Cadillac Escalade ESV Platinum 4x2 starts at $96,795 while the 2018 Lincoln Navigator Black Label 4x4 goes for $93,705.
    When you buy a large Luxury SUV like this it’s about making a statement so you need a prominent front end. Lincoln has applied their new corporate grill to the Navigator. The Escalade meanwhile has been using the same front fascia for a while and it still looks great. Both of these top-of-the-line models are riding on 22-inch rims.
    The Lincoln Navigator SUV is powered by a 3.5 liter twin-turbocharged V-6 that makes 450 horsepower and 510 lb-ft. of torque. The Cadillac Escalade is powered by a 6.2 liter V-8 making 420 horsepower and 460 lb-ft. of torque.

      That's where you are incredibly wrong. Germans hate their own cars and prefer American cars. But because American cars fetch an import premium, not many can buy them. I've been to Germany hundreds of times and many tell me they prefer American cars and would buy one if they were equally priced.

      Rico Robertson Rico I understand you statement with regards to European cars being less reliable on "average". However even the Volvo XC90 is a better class vehicle than the Escalade. These American vehicles have bold looks which is what people like but inferior wise omg its tacky and doesn't suit the price tag. The Lincoln steps up however its design aesthetic suits an older crowd.

      So explain why the Ford Fiesta and the Ford Fusion BOTH being American cars are the top selling sedans in Europe? Like the guy who commented stated “you’re not being from Europe proves your ignorance” or something to that order

      I Finn caddy. I can deal with the Cue, not a big problem with me. I’ve had experiences wit the old cue. It was fine. Didn’t upset me. I think the Cadillac car I was in was a STS or ST6 I don’t remember. This was back in 2012 it was a nice ass caddy. It was super super smooth it had remote start and it had push to start with the smart key access too. Which is really dated now to every car brand. I would take the Cadillac because it’s more authentic to me. It’s the car everyone would want. Who’s really gonna wanna buy a Ford for 95k when you can go buy a better ford/Rand Rover for the same price and the Range Rover would be better!? I would rather have the Range Rover than the Navigator. Cadillac I would take any day. Cadillac is like the king of luxury. Nothing can be it. Nothing is as smooth as it. Nothing is as good as it. I mean. Unless you go get a foreign car. But that’s no real American luxury.

      Mike Hoard The Escalade actually blows the navigator away with more stuff such as extra tech such as teen driver tech and meg Eric steering control, the options of two DVD players for the second and third row, better torque, a better mpg, a better styled and comfortable interior, an aggressive yet stylish exterior coming standard with auto deploying boards, a better engine, a similar starting price, and a more leg room. Now the Navigator is the one that is unreliable, because it just had a nasty recall having to also deal with the Expedition and f150.
      www.autonews.com/article/20180406/OEM11/180409758/ford-recall-f-150-expedition-transmissions
      Ford and Lincoln have also had the most recalls since the 90’s. Ford and Lincoln also have less experience than GM, because the Expedition and navigator started in the 1990’s when large SUVs were all the rage, but the Escalades sibling, the suburban started all the way back in 1935, having the longest running nameplate in automotive history. The Lincoln and Escalade did place side by side in the crash test, but the Escalade did do better in the rollover crash test than the navigator did. The Escalade also technically is 3inches longer and 5 inches wider making it the larger vehicle that it is.

      John Reid Yes, I am looking at a 2007 because we’re talking about deprecation, which happens over an extended period of time. And quite frankly, a forced induction engine like the Navigator has will never be as reliable as an under stressed, large displacement, naturally aspirated engine in the Escalade, which is why Escalades sell so much more, and hold their value better.

    There is hidden storage behind the center console.
    It’s pretty fast with a lot of but could use a little more power.
    Just here to say that the hidden storage in the console is very decent and has 3 more usb outlets!

Lincoln isn’t at Cadillacs focus anymore, they surpassed them many years ago. Caddy has bigger fish to fry than the navigator that the current Escalade already outsells

    • @mh-on7fp
      @mh-on7fp 6 років тому +75

      Pennywise, absolutely not! Many drivers prefer the better fuel economy, or quicker acceleration and better handling of a RWD system. With electronic traction control and stability control, there is rarely a need for the more complex drivetrain (think reliability) of a 4WD system (unless off-road performance is desired). At this price-point drivers demand optional choices to meet their driving preferences; the more choices the better.

      m h the only thing that would make any sense is the fuel economy, but by the time you're at this point in price what is 1 or 2 mpg less? You're really not losing much. Acceleration? Really? It's a damn bus. It's not supposed to be blistering fast. If you live in a state that gets terrible winter's 4wd will work better than any stability or traction control. My 2017 Explorer Sport is 4wd standard and only comes into play when the drive wheels slip. Nothing complex about it.

    The Navigator is a generation newer with an aluminum body, independent rear suspension and the turbo 6 engine. As a result, interior space and fuel economy are much better. And Lincoln knocked it out of the park with the interior. Navigator is a clear winner. And, judging by recent sales figures, buyers agree.

Sames goes for all the electronics and the layout of the interior. I too love a V8 over a V6 but I felt the Lincoln was faster and the sound (while not the same as the V8) was lower and more growl then what one would expect from a turbo V6.

The Pacifica was silky smooth as well as whisper quiet. That van was so quiet that it seemed almost motionless at 80 MPH. I also rode in a new King Ranch 150 Ford that was smoother and quieter than the Escalade, but not as quiet or smooth as the Pacifica.

    The Navigator wins in every single way. The exterior and interior both look more modern and luxurious and when equipped properly it competes more with a Range Rover than an Escalade, which is a massive accomplishment for Lincoln. The Escalade was made in 2015 and the interior design and amenities of the vehicle just don't compare to what's considered a true luxury SUV in 2018.

      Zay Springer But have you taken into consideration that the Escalade has more class in the exterior and interior, boasting a more aggressive but stylish design. The Escalade also offers more tech such as teen driver technology and magnetic steering control. The Escalade also has more legroom in the front passenger and drivers seats. The Escalade also has a better mpg and better performance like off-roading. The navigator does beat the Escalade in towing, but that’s the only thing the Navi actually wins in. The Escalade places higher in the suv class than the navigator does, ranked by cars.com usnews.com and caranddriver.com . Have you also taken into consideration that Lincoln and ford just had two recalls about their expedition, navigator, and f150. Here it is
      www.autonews.com/article/20180406/OEM11/180409758/ford-recall-f-150-expedition-transmissions
      The ford motor company is also one of the most unreliable companies to buy from considering that they have had the most recalls since the 90’s. The Escalade also places at the side of the navigator in crash testing, which both do very well in. The Escalade however does better on the rollover crash testing than the navigator does.

      The explorer is a CUV, because it is loosely based on the taurus platform instead of being truck based like these are therefore it is unibody and doesn't have a full frame.

    Excellent review. What's my choice? The Navigator

    No third row comparison

      That’s why my family decided to get the old Navigator...the third row space is way better than any GM product.

      only because they didnt have a navigator L to compare with the escalade ESV or they would have done that.

      And actually the navigator L seats are smaller than Escalade ESV in the 3rd row.

      CNVQ that was a very invalid comment. Escalade seats are smaller and very uncomfortable. Navigator had independent rear suspension which allows them to have better foot space and not have your knees into your chest. Actually adults can fit in the navigator third row. Also the navigator is wider than the Escalade. The Escalade has a simple 60/40 split bench. And the bench is very flat.

      Based on other reviews I've watched, I haven't experienced either car, the Lincoln accommodates adults on the third row. The lesson here is not to compare apples and oranges I guess

    I took my 2015 Explorer/Limited to the Ford/Lincoln dealership for routine service and I was looking forward to seeing and test driving the new Navigator but there weren't any on the lot. When I inquired as to why I was told that so many Escalade owners were trading in their Cadillacs for the new Navigator that Lincoln couldn't keep up with the production of the Navigator. I did see 5 Escalades in the used car lot also. After some research I also discovered that Cadillac was offering $5000 off of the Escalade for new buyers in an effort to entice previous Navigator owners to them. That new Lincoln is tough to beat!
