Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the backseat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Lincoln Nautilus than in the Kia Sorento Hybrid, due to its greater head- and legroom. The Lincoln Nautilus offers just a little more front head- and legroom than the Kia Sorento Hybrid, offering the driver and front passenger a bit more room and comfort.

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Kia Sorento Hybrid as you will with the Lincoln Nautilus, as they are both able to travel similar distances on a tank of gas.

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). Clearly, the Kia Sorento Hybrid is a better financial choice over the Lincoln Nautilus, when considering MSRP.

Dimensions
Since the Kia Sorento Hybrid is much slimmer than the Lincoln Nautilus, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. When looking at overall length, the Kia Sorento Hybrid takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Lincoln Nautilus.

Handling
The Kia Sorento Hybrid has the same turning radius as the Lincoln Nautilus, so they both maneuver the same in and out of tight spots.

Performance
The Kia Sorento Hybrid has a little less horsepower than the Lincoln Nautilus.

Powertrain
With its lower torque engine, the Kia Sorento Hybrid doesn't do as good a job transmitting power to its wheels as the Lincoln Nautilus.

Utility
The Kia Sorento Hybrid offers greater seating capacity than the Lincoln Nautilus, making it a better choice for those who find themselves chauffeuring others around. The Kia Sorento Hybrid has a roomier cargo area for putting your bags or other items than the Lincoln Nautilus.
