Lincoln Navigator vs Cadillac Escalade (2025) Battle of opulence.

Watch as the Lincoln Navigator and Cadillac Escalade go head-to-head in a battle of opulence in this 2025 comparison video. Explore the luxury features, performance specs, and design elements of these two iconic SUVs as they compete for the title of ultimate luxury vehicle.

First up, the Lincoln Navigator. For over 25 years, this SUV has been a symbol of luxury and power. With seating for up to eight passengers and the option of two wheelbases for extra cargo space, the Navigator is all about comfort and class. Inside, you'll find a leather-lined interior with heated, ventilated, and massaging front seats as standard. The centerpiece? A stunning 48-inch panoramic screen with a "Rejuvenate" mode, perfect for unwinding after a long day. Plus, with BlueCruise hands-free driving, you can sit back and relax while the Navigator takes care of the journey. Under the hood, a 440-horsepower twin-turbo V6 and standard all-wheel drive ensure that this SUV not only pampers but performs, with an impressive towing capacity of up to 8,700 pounds.

On the other side, we have the 2025 Cadillac Escalade, the ultimate statement of bold luxury. This year, the Escalade gets a fresh look, aligning with Cadillac's new EV lineup, but don’t worry—it’s still the same powerhouse we know and love. Designed to transport up to eight passengers in style, the Escalade blends modern tech with classic body-on-frame architecture. Inside, the dash-spanning curved OLED display takes center stage, now stretching across the entire dashboard. Need more space? The extended-wheelbase ESV model has you covered. And under the hood, the Escalade offers a 420-horsepower V8 as standard, but if you’re looking for something truly exhilarating, the Escalade-V packs a 682-horsepower supercharged V8 that roars like a beast.

Today, we're putting two of the most iconic luxury SUVs head-to-head: the 2025 Lincoln Navigator and the Cadillac Escalade. These titans have reigned supreme in the full-size SUV world, but which one comes out on top? Let’s dive in and find out!

Lincoln should make a Navigator V with a TUNED ecoboost engine the Lincoln is niceut I would rather have the Caddy !!

[patrickkealy]

Gimme that huge horsepower combined with the Cadillac luxury.

[christopherstreet]

Lincoln is quite simple luxury … Cadillac is bold and dynamic

[inchlorIentztJiIu]

Honestly, Cadillac has been the best Luxury SUV money can buy for a while now 🤷‍♂️

[michaelbarrett]

The Lincoln is truly lovely inside and out, only the dash screen is too much like in the Escalade!. The Escalade does look more impressive and substantial!.. The front clip of the Navigator needs more presence!

[kennethsmith]

The Escalade hands down the most menacing look in this segment. My ultimate dream SUV

[davideast]

Escalade! Hands down! And numbers don't lie!

[liresantanagil]

Is very simple the escalade is the more beautiful thing in the planet❤😂😂😂😂😂😂

[dallasfrost]

I definitely much prefer the Escalade, it looks better and is more luxurious.

[lindseyyah]

Cadillac executive addition has my attention

Niceee both suvs are beautiful in their on way, Lincoln really stepped it up but not enough to dethrone the Escalade.

Looks are subjective and everyone has their preference, but for me I like the exterior of the Caddy, and the interior of Lincoln. The Lincoln has a more pleasing and upscale design. It's almost like a modern interpretation of what American luxury used to be in its hey-day without being retro. Don't get me wrong, the Cadillac has nice materials, but the design is rather modern-day bland. Slapping a bunch of screens together and calling it a day on a vehicle that costs that much may be OK for some people, but I think the Escallade deserves a better interior. Something that doesn't look like the dash, door panels, and seats were all designed by different departments that didn't communicate with each other till it was too late. When you spend 100k or more, do you prefer an interior that looks like it was nicely crafted and well designed, or one that looks a little blah and possibly looks outdated before it's time. Again, opinions will vary, but I love Cadillacs old and new, and I want them to step up their game with every model when it comes to their interior design, especially when every other manufacturer has done it. If Jeep can put out a stunning interior, Cadillac definitely has no excuse.

Wow, I wish driving long-distance by a white Cadillac, from Tennesse all the way to DC

Escalade air ride
Lincoln Navigator posh seats to absorb the road vs suspension. 3rd row in navigator hits like a Ford F150 on the bumps.

[rudiknaus]

A very good comparison, it shows, that Lincoln went away a bit from the Range Rover Design to battle Cadillac, for my opinion there is still not enough Lincoln design on it, and where is a real top model Continental Sedan?? 🏁

The Escalade is the benchmark in design in this field, yes, as another post said, the interior in the Cadillac could have even more refinement..🇺🇸🏁

[erichaley]

One thing you didnt show is the power opening and closing doors on the Escalade! Cadillac has that as an option yet you didn't show that.

[AJ-bhvm]

This is the first time the Navigator looks better than the Escalade in my opinion. The Navigator looks more sophisticated and elegant than the Escalade. I take this Navigator over the Escalade any day, all day!!!!

[FranBushardt]

Its Simply a Matter of Personal Taste!!

[firefighterslife]

Both look good but going with Escalade

[alexandera]

Lincoln would have made a version with a V8 at least, there'd be a chance, because it's extremely good inside. And so far, the Cadillac looks interesting with a v8 engine.
