Nice video. However at 14:15 the cargo under floor area you showed in the Aviator looks identical to the XT6 (12:15), down to the handle and the contents. I'm not sure if that was in error.
It is an error. Either way they are very similar. Good catch.
I never noticed that lol now I know
Caddie is just a front drive clone of every other SUV GM makes. Just an over priced stretched Equinox
Caddie is an over priced front driver. No comparison to the Aviator in any way.
@@ginsure You sound just like the typical Trump MAGA clone! I got your number pal. Same as your twin “That34Monster.” You both need your heads examined. Caddie all day long. I will never buy a Ford product again after what I went through with one of their vehicles. GM has the edge!
Aviator all day long! I saw one exactly like this.
Aviator all day long It's beautiful inside and out.
Finally received my Aviator a month back - what a ride! One of the best luxury vehicles available.
Couldn't agree. Congratulations
Do you still have it?Review after 3 years
@@samdelon - traded off. Was still nice but had so many recalls(5) that were taking on avg of 2.5 months due to part shortages.... Really pissed off the wife so moved on for peace on 🌎
@nosoupforyou425 Good to know👍👍....Currently i am planning to buy SUV and i was thinking about Aviator, Genesis GV80,Cadillac XT6
Hands down for the Aviator!!! I don't need one but damn that thing looks lit asf.
The aviator is way better Lincoln is killing it
I'm driving a 2012 Lincoln mkt awd EcoBoost v6 twin turbo it's a beast.. trading it in, in 2 years for the aviator. 🤓😎💪😇❤
Glad to hear that
I have A 15' mkt, thinking the same exact thing
I have a 2010 Lincoln MKT also and absolutely love it. Disappointed they are no longer available. The Aviator is my next....
Grandma has a 2010 MKZ. Was gonna get a continetal but they made a dumb move and discontinued it!
You got that Aviator yet?
Talk about Lincoln pulling a leap frog over Cadillac SUVs. Anyone who would choose that XT6 over the Aviator is either blind or ignorant, especially when the price is so close.
Or a drug dealer ( ՞ਊ ՞）
XT6 is just an Acadia clone and the same engine as all the front drive GM SUV's, Basically an expensive front driver
One is a ford though.
Xt6 has a sharper exterior. Aviator has a better interior.
Xt6 has a sharper exterior. Aviator has a better interior.
Think the XT6 has a better exterior look but dam the aviator is on a different level in interior design. Then to boot the Lincoln has 400hp and a 500hp Hybrid to the 310 in the Cadillac. XT6 to me is now, an Acrua, Genesis, Lexus competitor, as the Aviator is more of a BMW, Merc, Audi competitor.
Aviator no question. Sleek and beautiful inside and out. The Caddy box style reminds me of early 2000’s Honda Pilot.
The Aviator is competing with the big boys: Audi Q7, Volvo XC90, Acura MDX, BMW X7, Mercedes GLS, Lexus LX570.
The Cadillac looks like its competing against Honda, Kia, Hyundai, Ford and Toyota...and losing.
Volvo XC90....not sure.
Lexus LX570 would be more in line with Navi/Escalade as its BOF suv, and compared to those is over matched
And MDX?🤣🤣🤣, it doesnt fit with the rest of the vehicles you mentioned. The MDX is actually EXACTLY what the XT6 competes against (think Enclave/Telluride etc) i.e. a step down from the X7/GLS/Aviator (high trim levels)/XC90 (in high trims)Q7/Cayenne etc
As they should... Ford used to own them and you will always see elements and similarities in the Ford, Jaguar, Range Rover, Volvo and Austin Martin and they all shared the platform from Volvo.
Before Ford acquired those companies they were on the brink of being bankrupt Range Rovers are falling apart with BMW engines., Jaguar was about to close doors, Volvo wanted out, Aston Martin was thrown in the mix. And they own 30% of Mazda so they'lll have similar ways thinking for a while.
Oop
That aviator is tops definitely gotta get 1 😍🔥🔥
Great informative video Sam. I love the look and function of both of these two new entries into this highly competitive market segment. Both are beautiful looking automobiles. Thanks for sharing this video.
Thanks Chris.
Now a comment from a 100% Cadillac man. Head to head I'll take the Cadillac all day, night and day over any direct competition from Lincoln except the Aviator Vs. XT6.
Escalade Vs. Navigator. Navigator's a beauty. Sorry, but the Escalade is still the top dog.
XT5 Vs. Corsair I'll be having an Black XT5 with Sedona Sauvage interior to go.
XT6 Vs. Aviator - Aviator and it just isn't close. Caddy, you dropped the ball on this one. BIG Time!!!
Message to Cadillac: Add a Blackwing option and seats that aren't available in any other models.
With interior color choice's Kona brown and Sedona Sauvage.
SHOCKER! 2019: last full year sales figures, Cadillac XT6 outsold Lincoln Aviator 17,300 to 8,350.
I agree.
a caddy will always be a caddy,like the saying goes you can put lipstick on a pig but its still a pig
I cant stand the Aviator, love the looks of it but hate the drive, to much like an explorer which shouldn't surprise me as they are both built on the same platform.
Enclave all the way
This is the video I have been waiting for...for awhile!! Awesome review Sam and Lincoln is my favorite. I love the style. Just my opinion. Nothing against the XT6.
After watching several similar videos I've noticed a pattern. In this head-to-head matchup overwhelming majority of people prefer the Lin Aviator. However, when the smaller version of these vehicle (XT5 vs Lin Nautilus) go head-to-head nearly everyone in the comments choose the XT5
the XT6 looks bland compared to the Aviator inside and out
lol no
you chevy man
I’d even take the Corsair Reserve over the XT 6. Aviator is one smooth looking SUV. Wins hands down. Now go compare that caddy to a Chevy. Lol. Dude. Why do you have cars sandwiched against each other ?
Trump lover.
The Lincoln is better in every way. No argument
Aviator for me 👍
Everyone that is pushing Lincoln, know that Cadillac still outsells the Lincoln
Lincoln has been gone from the game for a long time. Give it some time.
B Floyd yea your wrong
@@khalilmontgomery7165 um no, you are. Check the facts!
Lincoln is killing it.
@@khalilmontgomery7165 go read sales...Cadillac outsold Lincoln in all categories! Has for many years and continues to do so! Do your research!
I really like the XT6 but the Aviator is just in another league at this point man !
Great video. I'd probably take an Aviator over the XT6, but still prefer the Escalade to the Navigator. Personally, I don't need all that spaceship looking stuff. It's good to have nice competition between Cadillac and Lincoln, it only means that both brands will improve and in the end, it benefits us, the customers of these vehicules. I've a 2019 ESV Plat, wife an XT5. We went to test drive the Aviator and while, wow it's nice, didn't feel it was worth an upgrade since we don't lease, we buy our cars, and we didn't need the third row since we have the Escalade for that. I hope people would stop being so brand loyal in the comment section instead of being unbiased like you are in your videos. They are just luxury products after all. Brand loyalty is silly. Get what makes you feel good.
You don't like spaceship looking stuff? Wait until you see the 38in screen spanning the dash in the upcoming 2021 Escalade!
@@chiemekaa Haha I saw that. What I mean, is the style of the Lincoln interior in particular. It's a bit, too, feminine? Maybe I didn't use the proper word as English is not my first language.
Brawndo Great comment! The new Cadillac Escalade is pure luxury, and strides in the right direction. Very large improvement in every way over the current model and I think you will like it. I think if the Lincoln Aviator and Cadillac XT6 were the same price fully loaded then Lincoln would be the clear winner. But the XT6 has already proven to be the more reliable and better quality built offering and much more affordable fully equipped. The naturally aspirated V6 I would rather live with also and I prefer the Cadillac’s styling over the lizard looking Lincoln Aviator although they both look nice.
@@mybro727
Dont listen to mybro727
Hes a GM troll who acts like Cadillac and GM products are the best cars ever
Meanwhile the Aviator has a minimum of 400HP and a special 460HP engine while the XT6 only has a 310HP engine thats found in rental fleet chevys.
Jim Gayqueer Who are you? The mybro727 expert? Lol. Freaking weirdo. 🤦🏽♂️
He was confusing about opening and soft close on the Aviator, its on one of the packages maybe saying not on this one presented.
I got a fully loaded 2020 Reserve, black on black for $71k it’s a dream to drive!
Thanks for comparing these two .i am shopping for 2020 mid size suv .
Love my black label. Took a very long drive and felt like I was in a plane. Got to my destination and was not tired at all.
the xt6 has the option to fold the mirrors when you lock it but its a setting that you have to turn on and you have to hold the lock button which is very smart incase you are in a tight spot
My neighbor has a red xt6 i have the red Aviator
Lincoln is back!!
Cadillac is Cadillac. Period.
The aviator looks ugly inside and out. No offense to anyone who likes it..
Sam in your next review please try to get the vehicles closer together 😎. I think more of a V shape will give the viewers a better look. You had several good side views of the Aviator but not many of the Cadi. One important aspect that you did not mention is the wheelbase of the Lincoln is longer and will provide better ride quality.
This is how you present a comparison between 2 similar cars . I am a cadillac person no matter what new car comes out. If i put my feeling on the side and want to buy a another vehicle/change to used or a fresh NEW? this video will help you a lot to make the best choice that you will not regret in term of buying a car based on package that come with it. Unless you worry or concern about the budge $$ they are really expensive and i will not go in debt of over 30 thousand in a car loan cause that's where you regret, will start giving you stress and taking pills lolll. Unless u buy outright / one shot cash 😜you are on your own if you finance these vehicle on the current price. XT6 premium pack is 58 thousand before tax in canada the lowest. Now due to COV-19 they are promoting 0% downpayment; 0% interest on 36 months or 0% on 180days all this to attrack people faster so they can get rid the cars on their parking lot. 0% is on fire these days. Before it was impossible to get 84 months finance , even over 48months but now these days you can get over 64 up 84 to 90 easy. if i gotta step out side to go buy one of these i will go for the lincoln=> huge space in truck for luggage= security features to lock doors; Engin power. The only thing i'll be missing on the lincoln is the upper camera feature on mirror rearside which i love it on cadillac. XT6 should the Dash and navy style of SRX from 2014. I don't like how Lincoln put Navigation system on the upper level dash the in Aviator, this remind on Bmw, and SUV mercedes. it makes giving a feeling of blocking my view throught the windshield . It should be put in the area like in XT6. I will choose XT6 just because of Brand name loll u know something u are attached to for years and u may go back at it. In term of affordability XT6 is likely more affordable than Aviator that's mostly the reason i will to buy XT6
I do not feel the Cadillac XT6‘a purpose is to be a direct competitor to the Lincoln Aviator. It’s purpose was to replace the Cadillac SRX, and provide a third row option in addition to the two-row XT5 and compete with Lexus RX-L. There’s a reason the Cadillac XT6, Lexus RX, and Infiniti QX60 do not approach Aviator prices in top trims...they compete in different markets and appeal to a completely different customer. The Cadillac XT6 is substantially less expensive than the Lincoln Aviator fully equipped.
If your priorities include upwards of 300+ horsepower, RWD biased platform, luxuries like air suspension, etc. you can get into a fully loaded 2021 GMC Yukon Denali with a true air suspension that you can actually manually control yourself, naturally aspirated 6.2L V8 power producing 400+ horsepower, a true RWD BOF platform, and get hell of a lot more vehicle, space, comfortability, reliability and practicality for the same money of a much smaller, less capable Lincoln Aviator Black Label. When considering the price and features it’s a no brainer. People who are buying the QX60, XT6, XC90, RX-L, MDX, etc. do not share the same list of priorities therefore it separates these two vehicles in their own respective markets with different target buyers.
Couldn't agree more.
mybro727 The xt6 does compete with the aviator. Stop trying to convince yourself that it doesn’t. The Lexus RX, qx60, and the mdx are substantially less expensive than the xt6. The xt6 is a competitor to the xc90, q7, aviator, the three row version of the gle and the new genesis gv80.
JTL2017 You sound dumb as hell. How about you STOP replying to my comments if you don’t have anything of substance to say and if you can’t comprehend English text. When did I ever say the XT6 was cheaper than the RX-L, MDX, or QX60? I very clearly stated and made my point which is the Cadillac XT6 was not developed to be a *direct competitor* to the Lincoln Aviator. It’s main purpose is to be a SRX replacement. Several reviewers and journalists have stated this same thing. Not sure why we would all need to “convince ourselves” of something that 1. doesn’t make a difference to our finances 2. is factual and very obvious. Clearly it’s _you_ that’s trying to convince yourself of something here.
Who is really gunna compare a midsized Aviator to a FULL SIZE BOF SUV like the YuKon Denali/xl? The aviator competes against the Q7 XC90, and X7 on the lower range. The XT6 competes with those vehicles. it's a similar size shape and weight BUT the product itself Is noncompetetive. The Xt6 is a half baked product. Caddy clearly rushed as lackluster product t ok market to satisfy dealers request of a 3row crossover to fill the space under the Escalade. The Escalade (excited to see next gen unveil) is the real deal but the Xt6 is not. Not ONE automotive publisher has even come close to saying that the XT6 is a better product than the Aviator. And the XT6 purpose is to fill the void between 2 row xt5 and the FULL SIZE 3 ROW BOF Escalade/esv. You talk about the lexus RX and QX60, when tho vehicles dont compete with the Xt6 or Aviator; they are in XT5 (renamed SRX) and Lincoln Nautalus (renamed mkx) size class (2 row midsize). Dont know where you're getting this "srx replacement" from, you've clearly made that up in you caddy tainted head.
dnice pimpin How is the XT6 none-competitive? Another brainless commentator who cannot read and comprehend English. Please understand just because you do not like something doesn’t make it “none-competitive”. 😂 Smh.
None of you guys are making any sense here. You say it’s wrong to compare the RWD Aviator to the GMC Yukon (despite the fact a loaded Black Label Aviator is in Yukon pricing territory) solely because it’s a full size BOF SUV?? Lol...but then somehow it makes sense to say the Lincoln Aviator competes head on with a different *FULL SIZE LUXURY GERMAN SUV* which is the BMW X7 which competes directly with the Cadillac Escalade, GMC Yukon, Mercedes-Benz GLS, Lexus LX, Infiniti QX80, etc.? Lol. Please understand that doesn’t make ANY SENSE *at all.* Your logic is clearly flawed and you’re critically contradicting yourself. What a joke.
P.S.
Which offering is a “better product” is a matter of opinion and preference. I never said any reviewer stated either was better than the other. You sound like another Lincoln fan that’s butt-hurt over my original post. Believe me if Cadillac built a RWD Aviator direct competitor it will effortlessly blow the Lincoln out of the water the same way the Cadillac CT6 blows the FWD Lincoln Continental out of the water.
I have the Aviator and my son has the XT6. We BOTH like the Aviator better by far!
Regardless of what they say on paper, in the real world (at least where I live), the Lincoln will cost you about $10,000 (or $200/month to lease) more than the Cadillac.
It's worth it. Xt6 looks silly
I have been waiting for this comparison my self. Which one is your favorite?
Great video as always
Xt6 is my fave
XT6 exterior but Aviator interior
Great job! Very precise analysis!!
In a multi-tasking world, using “this” and “that” is very annoying since I either had to glance over to see which one you pointed to or double-tap to 10 seconds before to catch all of your “this”s and “that”s .... otherwise I enjoyed your review . Thank you.
I appreciate your doing this video. But if I may offer a few unsolicited tips from a 30 year professional broadcaster:
1. You can say the same thing with fewer words. It is possible, just requires effort.
2. Spend more time looking into the camera (the LENS, not the screen .. you're not talking to yourself in a mirror ... lots of CZcamsrs make that mistake all the time!) Stop looking at what you're describing. It'll REALLY help you connect with the audience more.
3. You seem to be uncomfortable with gaps between your sentences, causing you to run sentences together, and making it harder to edit.
4. Video is very long. If it's gonna be 30 plus minutes, it must be VERY entertaining. If not, cut it down to 10 minutes. You can actually chose the most interesting things to talk about and don't have to present EVERYTHING. People can read about stuff like cup holders, etc.
Video quality is great, sound is AWESOME, you're very knowledgeable. Once you find a way to deliver in an entertaining way, you'll see your subscribers and views go way up. I hope to see great things from you in the future! You have major potential....
Thank you. I took the time and read your entire comment. Your feedback means a lot to me.
The xt6 does have a cup holder and storage compartment under the ac controls in the second row
AVIATOR THE BESTT DIFINIT
THE FOOT ACTIVATED POWER TAILGATE WORKS GREAT ON BOTH VEHICLES AND CONSISTENTLY, IF YOU USE IT CORRECTLY. ITS A SIMPLE KICKING MOTION UNDER THE BUMPER. THAT’S IT!!!! WHEN WAS IT EVER A SWEEPING MOTION WITH YOUR FOOT? 🙄
The XT6 is really out of its league here being a fwd bias based architecture and not producing nearly the power or comfort as the Lincoln and similar rivals like the BMW X7 and Mercedes GLE models. The XT6 should have been based off the CT6 platform rather then the cheaper GMC smaller Acadia version. GM really missed a great package especially if equipped with a V8 option like the CT6 has. Ford has definitely been throwing more money into their vehicles then GM. Apparently GM would rather spend that money on advertising and executive bonuses. The Lincoln looks more like itself then a Ford and the Cadillac unfortunately looks like a GM product and not a luxury variant.
I love Cadillac but This is no competition the aviator is so much better
Lincoln aviator better
A better comparison would have been the Explorer Platinum vs the XT6
No try Traverse High Country vs Explorer Platinum.
hi Sam! which one of them have more comfortable soft cushion seating? which one of them have softest power steering?
I am only interested in that GMC safari in the back.
To me Cadillac even fell short when they designed the new Escalade the Chevy Tahoe front end looks better than the Escalade's and as far as the body design goals?? It was never met. Reason being it looks identical to its Brothers. But I will give them an (A) For the interior🤩
Marlon Elmore Freedom Is Ours not division ok what are you smoking....the new Escalade looks amazing
@@Idk-gy5gs it looks good but not really alluring now the interior is beautiful
Canadian people want too no,,winter driving conditions snow tires or studed snow,tires 😂
Looked at a 22 aviator today I was impressed with the suv but didn’t like the sales experience I wanted to deal with the salesman not the manager
I bought a 2022 XT6.
The XT6 is an embarrassment for Cadillac compared to the rwd bias Lincoln Aviator. Cadillac should have used the rwd platform of the CT6. This Caddy is just a rebadged Acadia and not even the better sized Enclave/Traverse platforms. GM always seems to be the worst when it comes to nickle and diming and the Caddy is no exception. The Lincoln has great features but lacks the true quality befitting the high price tag. It's sad that a $30k Toyota Camry is far more reliable then a $80k luxury vehicle regardless of American or European manufacturers. But hey if obtuse minded individuals who are obviously smoking the fumes of these overly priced and mostly unreliable manufacturers marketing departments hype. Unfortunately planned obsolescence is how these vehicles are made. Hopefully people have better luck then the many who haven't ✌🏽🇺🇲
XT6 Baby...
The two things that I found interesting was, are those fake exhaust tips on the caddy and
the lincoln has 400 HP, but the caddy has 400 on the rear hatch (boot)
Cadillac switched to this dumb badging strategy where they list the torque of their engines in Newton meters. It leads to the consumer mistaking that number for being an engine output rating .
But it works in their favor for underpowered engines like the 3.6 into the Xt7
@@pimpindnice910 Thanks for that info.
Trying to decide between these two its a difficult decision. I own a car service so I'm going black on black. So which should I choose?
lincoln aviator
Black label Lincoln aviator
Go Cadillac xt. Its a Cadillac
The Aviator will constantly be needing service for all of its recalls. I would seriously avoid it.
Lincoln = UGLY
Cadillac= Good looking.
Aviator is far nicer
Lincoln is better.
Aviator engine is identical to the one in the ST it looks like?
Yes
GM cars just look cheap even a Caddi. When the valet brings the Lincoln its impressive. When the valet brings up the Caddi it looks like the last girl in the bar.
The Aviator makes the XT6 look cheap but the new Genesis GV80 makes the Aviator look cheap
Aviator
This video is terrible! You say “This one” and “That one” and we, the viewer do not always know what one you are talking about. There are times when you’re talking about one vehicle and showing the other. I found it confusing and frustrating to watch. I was also not sure if, when you said a feature was not offered, if it was not offered or simply not in the vehicle you were reviewing. It was all very confusing.
Video is 30 minutes long and we never once got a whole side view of the XT6. Just bits and pieces. What a waste.
I have looked over the feature set on the XT6 and I think if you are planning to spend between US $50k to $60-65k, the XT6 is the best way to go, but if you are going spend $70k or more you go with the Aviator unless you re just hooked on the XT6 design.
Though I do wish that they would put a transverse version of the 3.0T from the CT5 in the XT6. The most common complaint I have heard about the XT6 is twofold, both have to do with the 3.6L V-6:
1. The 3.6L is too ubiquitous at GM and a Cadillac should have something far more exclusive. Right now the 3.0T is too exclusive as you can only get it on the CT5.
2. The 3.6L just doesn’t have enough low end torque, and is merely adequate for the task at hand. Again, the 3.0T solves the issue. I know the XT6 is based on a transverse layout, and torque steer would be an issue. But they solved the issue with a great AWD system on the now deceased XTS V-Sport. Cadillac has some of the greatest engineers in the world, they can make it work.
They also need a better infotainment screen. I read somewhere that Cadillac will be refreshing all of its vehicles except the Escalade for the 2023 model year. Here’s hoping the Lyriq interior design language and trim makes it inside the rest of Cadillac’s line-up. Now reimagine the XT6 with 3.0T for motivation and the Lyriq interior design!
Well, I can dream.
Aviators: glitzy but unreliable
XT6: not glitzy but doesn't get recalls every month
Cadillac isn't much reliable either. Its 2020 not 1972
Hate the mandatory panorama roof.
Xt6 is smaller IRL
ПУТИН ПРЕЗИДЕНТ МИРА !!!
Pepsi Vs. Coca-Cola
Lincoln looks like a police cruiser.
No, you're wrong..
Not apples to apples. Aviator is a bigger suv.
What actually are you talking about?
Justin Spiguzza They’re in the same size segment.
They are almost exactly the same size.
You’ve gotten a few things wrong, please be sure to provide real facts instead of throwing a number out there! The grand touring does not make 460 hp.
You are right it makes 494
Something's off with this guy?
He looks like a serial killer...
Funny but true 🤣
Agreed. I find his videos painful to watch.
예
Please learn how to use the features, (a simple, straight-in, mild kick of the leg is all that's needed to get the power hatch to open) etc. before you review it, and put front seats in proper position to allow second seats to fully fold flat so actual amount of room available is shown - could have been good, but ultimately sloppy, lazy reviewing
冷吧？播主。
Stopped at seven minutes. Horrible review and hard to watch.
True that, most of the video is inside the caddy, even when he talks about the aviator it shows the caddy. Didnt get much of the aviator which i was looking forward to. I think its the camera man’s fault.
You can not get a better SUV than the Lincoln I love mine much better than any European model as well Cheaper to insurance and to Maintain it as well. Another words the Lincoln will not keep you broke.
