DRIVER ALERT

When it comes to taking to the roads, you’ll want to ensure your luxury SUV turns heads. Clearly, these models can do so with looks alone, but you’ll also need some refined power to keep the attention on you.
The 2023 Lincoln Nautilus meets the needs of various drivers with the following powertrain options:
- 2.0-liter I-4 turbocharged engine: 250 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque
- 2.7-liter V6 twin-turbocharged engine: 335 horsepower and 380 lb-ft of torque
These powertrains will deliver the swift acceleration and dynamic response you crave.
You may be left wanting more with the Cadillac XT6, since the base motor only delivers 237 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. You have the option to choose the more aggressive 310-horsepower and 271 lb-ft of torque engine; however, it still falls short of the Lincoln Nautilus’ highest engine configuration.

Today’s drivers require more from their vehicles than merely the ability to get from Point A to Point B. They demand in-vehicle technology to keep them informed, engaged, entertained, and connected. The Lincoln Nautilus and the Cadillac XT6 deliver on all fronts; but once again, one model provides just a bit more out of the gate.
As you explore the open road with your daring ride, you can take your drive to the next level with the proper entertainment. Get amped up with your favorite tunes played through the standard Premium Audio System with 10 speakers in the Lincoln Nautilus. This system is paired to a standard 13.2-inch SYNC® 4 LCD touchscreen that allows you to easily choose your next song.
The entertainment in the XT6 leaves something to be desired. It comes with a much smaller 8-inch standard screen that may be harder to use when traversing the unpredictable road. Additionally, this system is paired to an 8-speaker system, so you may not hear your favorite song as clearly.
Heading to an out-of-town conference? No problem! In the Lincoln Nautilus, you can use the Connected Built-In Navigation to find your way to any unknown destination. Time to chart a course to a new restaurant and meet up with friends for dinner or after-work drinks.
If you’re looking for navigation in the Cadillac XT6, you’ll need to choose a higher trim level since it isn’t available on the base trim as it is in the 2023 Lincoln Nautilus.

Of course, infotainment isn’t the only technology you’ll find in these luxury SUVs. Whether you’re flying solo or transporting colleagues or family members, no tech features are more important than those that help protect you and everyone on board. As you’ll see, Lincoln and Cadillac take your safety as seriously as you do.
With their respective safety suites—Lincoln Co-Pilot360™ 1.0 and the Cadillac Smart System—these two models make your safety a priority. They each equip brand-specific versions of the following safety features:
- Rear View Camera
- Blind Spot Information System with Cross-Traffic Alert
- Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking
- Lane-Keeping System
One safety aspect that’s only provided by the Lincoln Nautilus, though, is Driver Alert. It monitors your driving patterns, and if they become irregular, the system will issue an audible and visual warning. That way, you’ll know it may be time to switch drivers or pull over to take a break. The Cadillac XT6 doesn’t offer this extra layer of protection.
The Cadillac XT6 aims to simplify every aspect of driving with Front and Rear Park Assist. When parking your vehicle, it comes to your aid, letting you know when you’re too close to frontal or rear obstacles.
Want to take this convenience even further? If so, then opt for Enhanced Active Park Assist in the 2023 Lincoln Nautilus. This intelligent system uses ultrasonic sensors to locate an available spot, and then steers your vehicle into place. This system not only makes getting in or out of parallel and perpendicular parking spaces easier, but it also makes your drive safer and more enjoyable.
The XT6 has a similar Automatic Parking Assist with Braking feature available.

While the 2023 Lincoln Nautilus and the Cadillac XT6 each have a lot to offer, the Lincoln Nautilus goes the extra mile in terms of performance and both infotainment and safety tech.
