2022 Lincoln Navigator vs. 2022 Cadillac Escalade

Premium Performance And Power

With an interior that’s stocked with advanced features and an elegant exterior design, the 2022 Navigator offers premium materials across the cabin and delivers plenty of power under the hood to get everyone to their next destinations. For a buttery-smooth ride and bolstered handling, the Navigator’s wheelbase is 1.6 inches longer than on the Escalade (122.5 inches vs. 120.9 inches).

The 2022 Lincoln Navigator is also equipped with a standard 3.5-liter EcoBoost turbocharged V6 engine that promises 400 horsepower and 510 lb.-ft. of torque for extreme performance. With such reliable power, you’ll arrive wherever the road takes you.

Alternatively, the 2022 Cadillac Escalade’s 420-horsepower 6.2-liter V8 engine is bulkier and less efficient while providing similar degrees of power. To make sure you’re getting the most for your money, if you pay more for similar performance in the Escalade, you could be missing out on more deluxe upgrades for the new Navigator.

Spacious Seating And Cargo Area

It’s true that the 2022 Lincoln Navigator and the 2022 Cadillac Escalade can both comfortably fit up to 8 passengers, but only the Navigator delivers the vast amounts of room for enveloping luxury. Additionally, a low lift-over cargo hatch layout makes loading the Navigator easier, and the vehicle’s cargo hatch lift-over height is a convenient 29 inches, unlike the Escalade’s liftover at 37 inches. The 2022 Navigator features a standard third row seat that folds flat across the floor. This completely clears a very large cargo area quickly. The Escalade doesn’t offer seats that fold into the floor.

Advanced Safety And Tech Features

It’s no secret that the most important advancements in automotive technology are the ones that keep everyone safe on the road. The 2022 Lincoln Navigator helps you focus on the road ahead with the available Head-Up display. This display boldly shows your trip’s vital driving information just above the steering wheel, including your road settings, passenger detection alert, lane assist, and more.

Driving the 2022 Lincoln Navigator gives you a 13.2-inch touchscreen and USB ports available along each row. The infotainment screen’s graphics are easy to navigate and vivid, and the Navigator features Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as standard. The infotainment software also helps you get over-the-air updates with Navigator’s onboard 5G Wi-Fi hotspot. And last but hardly least, the Navigator’s 14-speaker Revel stereo system arrives standard, but an incredible 28-speaker Revel Ultima 3D stereo comes optional as part of the Luxury suite.
