Lincoln Navigator vs. BMW X7

You know there’s more to driving a luxury SUV than iconic grilles and timeless colors. It’s the smallest of details found throughout the vehicle that transforms your commute into a living piece of art.

These elements are naturally incorporated, from the natural embrace of genuine wood accent trim to the opulence of available leather upholstery that caresses your senses with unparalleled comfort and refinement.

But that's not all—the Lincoln Navigator goes above and beyond, infusing every journey with even more sensory delights, including:

• Piano key shifter
• Sound-dampening technology like Active Noise Control
• Instrumental alert chimes recorded by a world-renowned symphonic orchestra

The Lincoln Navigator continues to delight with mood-boosting amenities, where every detail is designed to elevate your spirits and create an ambiance of pure bliss. Standard heated and ventilated front and rear seats envelop you in comfort.

While the BMW X7 offers heated front seats, you’ll have to opt for an upgrade to experience the same level of indulgence throughout the cabin.

All eyes are on you as you grace the town in your Lincoln or BMW, basking in the radiant glow of dazzling headlamps and dynamic taillights. These personal spotlights illuminate the path ahead with astonishing clarity and leave a mesmerizing trail of elegance in your wake.

As you embark on your nightly escapades, the Lincoln Navigator's signature adaptive pixel LED headlamps artfully cut through the darkness, adjusting their intensity and direction to match your every turn. The dance of light effortlessly guides your way, adding an aura of sophistication to your nocturnal journey.

Approach your Lincoln Navigator, and its detection system senses the presence of your key fob, extending a warm welcome with a touch of enchantment as the SUV gently illuminates an elegant welcome mat. Step into a world of indulgence and comfort.

The X7, too, boasts LED headlights, but the Lincoln Navigator goes the extra mile with its thoughtful welcome lights, making every entrance a grand affair.

Embrace the cutting-edge convenience of wireless connectivity. Simply connect your smartphone to your SUV via wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ capabilities. You can even keep your phone charged thanks to a wireless charging pad.

Both SUVs feature cinematic touchscreen displays, putting control at your fingertips with a simple touch, tap, and swipe.

Everyone knows one half of a great cinematic experience comes from sound engineering. Lincoln Navigator drivers will experience an immersive audio experience thanks to the optional Revel® Ultima 3D Audio System which incorporates 28 strategically placed speakers and Quantum Logic® 3D Surround technology for the most stimulating experience.

X7 drivers will find a premium audio experience with the optional Harman Kardon® sound system; however, it lacks tantalizing capabilities since it only offers 16 speakers.

As a child, you may have dreamed about self-driving cars. Well, dream no more, because, with the Lincoln Navigator or the X7, you're on your way to experiencing the future of driving. Embrace the possibilities with optional hands-free driving capabilities available in both models. These cutting-edge features open up new horizons, allowing you to navigate with confidence and ease.

Moreover, the Lincoln Navigator and the X7 are equipped with a plethora of driver-assist features that act as your vigilant copilots, monitoring the surroundings of your SUV and alerting you to potential hazards. Feel at ease with features like Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking and Lane-Keeping System, enhancing your safety on every journey.

While these features are also found standard on the X7, the Lincoln Navigator goes the extra mile with the inclusion of Intersection Assist. This exclusive feature provides an added layer of confidence, especially when navigating left-hand turns through intersections. With the Lincoln Navigator, you'll experience a sense of assurance and control like never before, making every drive a journey to remember.

Feel the pulse of power as the engine roars to life, infusing your SUV with an exhilarating surge of energy. The Lincoln Navigator boasts a heart of steel in the form of a 3.5L V6 Twin-Turbocharged engine, unleashing its might with effortless grace.

In comparison, the X7 also boasts a turbocharged engine; however, it pales in comparison to the Lincoln Navigator's raw power. While the X7 delivers up to 375 horsepower and 398 lb-ft of torque, it simply can't match the unbridled potency of the Lincoln Navigator's engine.

With the X7, you'll find yourself yearning for that extra kick of power that sets the Lincoln Navigator apart from the rest. So, why settle for less when you can have the commanding performance of the Lincoln Navigator, taking your driving experience to exhilarating heights?

When it comes to versatility, the Lincoln Navigator and the X7 are no strangers to accommodating your adventurous spirit. With the Lincoln Navigator's robust capabilities, towing up to 8,300 pounds becomes a breeze, allowing you to bring along your favorite toys for the journey when properly equipped.

The X7, while impressive, offers a slightly lower towing capacity of up to 7,500 pounds when properly equipped.

You’ll find selectable drive modes with both SUVs. These models empower you to tailor your driving experience to suit your mood. However, the Lincoln Navigator goes the extra mile with five distinct modes, providing even more flexibility and control compared to the X7's three modes.
