Cadillac XT4 in Covington LA vs Lincoln Aviator
If you're ready to shop for a new ride, and you're thinking of luxury crossover offerings, the Cadillac XT4 in Covington LA is a great choice. It carries five passengers comfortably, it isn't too large and cumbersome to maneuver, and it starts at a reasonable price for a luxury choice. And to sweeten the deal even more, this little gem is made in America. However, before you choose this small crossover SUV, there's another American entry in this segment you should also consider.
The Lincoln Corsair is in its second year and is helping to bring the Lincoln name back into the spotlight of American made luxury. It too, will seat five quite comfortably, is an excellent size for getting in and out of small spaces, and has an affordable starting price as well. Let's see how the Lincoln Corsair stacks up against the Cadillac XT4.
Under the Hood
Beginning under the hood, the XT4 is already at a disadvantage because no matter which trim you choose, this model only offers one engine, a turbocharged 2.0-liter inline 4-cylinder that puts out 237 horsepower. The Lincoln Corsair, on the other hand, has three powertrain options. The base engine is a turbo 2.0-liter inline-4 providing 250 hp, but for more power there's the turbocharged 2.3-liter inline-4 that delivers 295 hp and a whopping 310 ft-lbs of torque! New for this year is the Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) Grand Touring model for drivers wanting to go electric.
As you can see from the numbers, the Cadillac XT4 in Covington LA isn't exactly slow, but it has less power than the base engine of the Lincoln Corsair. When you opt for the Lincoln's 2.3-liter, the XT4 doesn't even come close. As for XT4 electric options - not on this model!
Cadillac XT4 in Covington LA: Interior
Both models are classed as compact crossovers, and they have very similar dimensions, both inside and out. Even though it's not as wide or quite as long as the XT4, the Lincoln Corsair may have a tad more passenger room, but cargo capacity is where it really overtakes the Caddy. If you're looking for more overall storage space for weekend excursions or shopping trips, the Lincoln Corsair has it! Whether the backseats (which can also slide forward and back and recline!) are upright or folded down, you'll get nearly ten cubic feet more space for your stuff in the Lincoln Corsair.
Ride Quality
Although the XT4 and the Lincoln Corsair both provide a smooth and comfortable ride, many reviewers have found the cabin of the Cadillac XT4 in Covington LA lets in a fair amount of engine and road noise. It seems that a luxury vehicle should be soothing and calm inside, and the Lincoln Corsair has consistently impressed drivers with its serene elegance inside.
Technology
As far as safety features and in-car technology goes, the XT4 and Lincoln Corsair both come standard with what you'd expect at the luxury level. However, the Lincoln Corsair's infotainment and driver assist features are easier to use than many of its rivals, including the Cadillac XT4.
