Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the backseat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Lincoln Nautilus than in the Audi Q8, due to its greater head- and legroom. The Lincoln Nautilus will be a hit with tall drivers and their front seat passengers, since it has greater front head- and legroom than the Audi Q8.

Convenience
The Lincoln Nautilus requires fewer stops at the gas station than the Audi Q8, making it more convenient to drive.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Audi Q8 will definitely make more of a dent in your wallet than the Lincoln Nautilus, which has a much lower MSRP.

Dimensions
The Audi Q8 is a little narrower than the Lincoln Nautilus, so you'll have an easier time getting in and out of the car in a tight parking spot. When looking at overall length, the Audi Q8 takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Lincoln Nautilus.

Handling
The Audi Q8 has a significantly larger turning radius than the Lincoln Nautilus, making it much more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Audi Q8 greatly out-muscles the Lincoln Nautilus.

Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the Audi Q8 does a much better job of transmitting its engine's horsepower to its wheels than the Lincoln Nautilus.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Audi Q8 and the Lincoln Nautilus. The Audi Q8 has less cargo space than the Lincoln Nautilus, which is okay if you don't need to move a lot in one trip.
