Compare the 2025 Lincoln Navigator vs 2025 Cadillac Escalade - Grapevine, TX

Performance

The starting performance of a luxury SUV is often the first thing buyers look at. For those who waver between mainstream or luxury SUVs, the base model's performance on a luxury SUV often makes the decision for a buyer. And that's good news for Lincoln. Their 2025 Lincoln Navigator offers 440-horsepower performance right off the bat (compared to 420-horsepower performance for the Escalade). Navigator models also have an advantage on towing, offering up to 8,500 pounds of max towing (compared to up to 8,100 for the Escalade).

Design

Which SUV wins out in this area partly depends on the subjective likes and dislikes of a potential buyer. However, the Navigator often shows up as the more "noble" of the two. It's an SUV that will look great in the hands of a young professional or an old pro. It seats up to 8 people and boasts features like a pillar black grille surrounded by satin aluminum closed jewels, available 24-inch nickel aluminum wheels, and illuminated exterior features. And while the Navigator is a large SUV, it's more aesthetically proportioned than the blockier Escalade. Lincoln makes liberal use of sharp angles and exterior accents to slim down the appearance of the Navigator.

Interior

One reason many people opt for the 2025 Navigator over the Escalade is Lincoln's Black Label themes. The atmosphere is a big deal to Lincoln, and they've made "renewal" the subject of their interior themes. These themes add quilted seats and exclusive materials to the Navigator Black Label's interior, creating an overall experience instead of just a place to hang out while waiting to arrive at a destination. A brand new theme this year is the "Invitation" theme that adds Khaya wood and black leather-trimmed seats with Brandy stitching.
