More Luxury and More Space

Lincoln Nautilus Interior Lincoln Nautilus Interior Dimensions

Luxuries like upgraded seating make the drive that much more enjoyable. Sink into the optional Ultra Comfort 22-way front seats of the Lincoln Nautilus. They offer seven massage settings through Active Motion® to delight and relax you. The Cadillac front seats can’t even compete. You’ll have an 8-way power adjustable driver’s seat at most.

Although both vehicles promise room for five riders, looking at the chart below shows how much space each one has to spare.

In nearly every case, the Lincoln Nautilus dominates in the amount of cabin space you’ll receive. It continues to do so in the back of the SUV. With the Lincoln Nautilus, it offers a maximum 68.8 cubic feet when you fold down the rear seats. The Cadillac provides much less room, at just 63 cubic feet.


Larger Screens, More Speakers

Lincoln Nautilus Technology Features

A large, 12.3-inch instrument cluster display appears in the Lincoln Nautilus, so you can keep an eye on how much fuel you have and how fast you’re going. The very best the Cadillac offers is an upgraded 8-inch Driver Information Center.

The Lincoln Nautilus goes all out with its premium audio offering. Upgrade to the Revel® Ultima Audio System that outfits your cabin with an amazing 19 speakers. If you opt for the Cadillac XT5, the available Bose® Performance Series system only provides 14 speakers.


See Through the Blind Spots

Lincoln Nautilus Safety Features

Both cars feature comparable safety and driver-assist features. Less visible areas, though, such as blind spots and behind the vehicle differ in the availability of standard systems.

With the Lincoln Nautilus, Blind Spot Information System and Cross-Traffic Alert come standard, giving you extra visibility. The Cadillac provides comparable systems including Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone Alert and Rear Cross Traffic Alert, but they’re only considered add-ons.


2 Engines, More Power

Lincoln Nautilus Engine Specs

Choose which engine you want in both SUVs from the two you’re offered. A 2.0L turbocharged I-4 engine accompanies the Lincoln Nautilus but can be exchanged for the available 2.7L V6 twin-turbocharged engine. The first engine generates 250 horsepower with 280 lb-ft of torque, while the second engine generates 335 horsepower with 380 lb-ft of torque.

Much less power stems from either Cadillac engine. The comparable and standard 2.0L Turbo 4-cylinder engine generates 235 horsepower with 258 lb-ft of torque. If you select the optional 3.6L V6 engine, it generates 310 horsepower with 271 lb-ft of torque.
