2023 Volvo XC90 vs. 2023 Lincoln Nautilus

The 2023 Volvo XC90 dazzles with its Swede style, lovely interior and quick acceleration. But how does it compare to the 2023 Lincoln Nautilus, an SUV with a hush cabin, plus seats, ample performance and user friendly infotainment?

Design & Style

Lincoln has become one of the top SUV manufacturers in the United States, and the Nautilus demonstrates why. The floaty ride, exclusive cabin which cancels external noise and turbocharged engine makes it a vehicle coveted by many. Its latest features for this year consist of cosmetic updates like various wheel designs along with a new paint color called Jewel Sandstone. Those that get the Premium edition will receive navigation in dash along with traffic updates in real time.

The Volvo XC90 matches the Nautilus when it comes to class and sophistication. It is a true manifestation of Swedish minimalism in automotive form. Buyers get the option of a turbocharged engine along with a hybrid plugin named Recharge that provides greater power. Its latest updates for the year include 3 paint colors, which are Silver Dawn, Platinum Grey and Bright Dusk, along with heated steering, backrest massages and twenty one inch wheels.

Technology & Safety

Volvo is highly regarded for the safety of its vehicles and the XC90 is no exception. It is outfitted with the industry's best safety gear, which includes emergency automated brakes, multiple airbags, blind area monitoring, frontal impact alerts and notifications for cross traffic in the rear, just to name a few. Luxuries within its cabin consist of wifi, Android Auto or Apple CarPlay, nine inch touch display, climate control and leather upholstery.

The Lincoln Nautilus matches the Volvo when it comes to safety, offering a proprietary suite called Co-Pilot360 which offers driver assistance functions like adapted cruise control, lane management, pedestrian detection and emergency automated brakes with airbags. Its cabin luxuries consist of an audio system with eleven speakers, wifi, thirteen inch touch display, Android Auto or Apple CarPlay and powered seats that can be adjusted twenty two ways.

Performance

The most powerful Nautilus comes with a turbocharged 2.7 liter V6 engine that can generate 335 horsepower with the ability to accelerate from zero to sixty in 5.9 seconds. Those that purchase the Volvo XC90 Recharge T8 will get a 455 horsepower engine that can accelerate from zero to sixty in 4.5 seconds.

The Bottom Line

The Volvo seats 7 passengers while the Lincoln only seats 5. The XC90 also outclasses the Nautilus when it comes to horsepower and acceleration, and this combined with the Lincoln's torque steering, bounce when hustled and less than perfect steering makes the Volvo XC90 the winner.
