Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the backseat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Lincoln Navigator than in the Cadillac Escalade, due to its greater head- and legroom. The Cadillac Escalade offers just a little more front head- and legroom than the Lincoln Navigator, making it a little more comfortable for the driver and front passenger.

Convenience
With the Lincoln Navigator, you will definitely be making fewer stops at the gas station than with the Cadillac Escalade, due to its tank size and fuel economy.

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). Whether you pick the Cadillac Escalade or the Lincoln Navigator, it's going to cost you about the same.

Dimensions
The Cadillac Escalade is a little wider than the Lincoln Navigator, so getting in and out of the car in a crowded parking lot may be a little more of a squeeze. When looking at overall length, the Cadillac Escalade takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Lincoln Navigator.

Handling
The Cadillac Escalade has a significantly smaller turning radius than the Lincoln Navigator, allowing you to much more easily maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
With the Cadillac Escalade, you'll be able to pull heavier loads than the Lincoln Navigator. The Cadillac Escalade has a little less horsepower than the Lincoln Navigator.

Powertrain
With its lower torque engine, the Cadillac Escalade doesn't do as good a job transmitting power to its wheels as the Lincoln Navigator.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Cadillac Escalade and the Lincoln Navigator. The Cadillac Escalade has a roomier cargo area for putting your bags or other items than the Lincoln Navigator.
