2023 Nautilus vs. Audi Q5

Performance

Embrace perfection in motion when climbing behind the wheel of the new Lincoln Nautilus. The Lincoln Nautilus and Audi Q5 offer versions of an All-Wheel Drive drivetrain. However, the Nautilus takes it a step further. Our available Intelligent All-Wheel Drive constantly monitors the road conditions, sending the right amount of power to each of your four wheels. With Intelligent All-Wheel Drive, you stay in greater control of the moment. Nothing will stop you from succeeding with the Nautilus in your corner.

The Lincoln Nautilus and Audi Q5 both offer a standard 2.0-liter powertrain. However, that is where the similarities cease. The more powerful Nautilus offers a 250-horsepower turbocharged 2.0-liter engine, whereas the Audi Q5's 201-horsepower turbocharged 2.0-liter engine falls behind. The choice is obvious. When you want more power and greater performance, choose the 2023 Lincoln Nautilus from Woodhouse Lincoln.

Performance Features

TWIN-TURBOCHARGED 2.7L V6 ENGINE

Discover an impressive combination of power and quietness. The available twin-turbocharged 2.7L V6 engine is ready for wherever the road takes you, delivering 335 horsepower* and 380 lb.-ft. of torque.** In creating it, our engineers were mindful of fuel usage as well as sound, designing it to be remarkably quiet.

*Horsepower and torque are independent attributes and may not be achieved simultaneously.

TURBOCHARGED 2.0L I-4 ENGINE

A dynamic expression of quiet flight. The 250-horsepower* turbocharged 2.0L I-4 engine uses three technologies - the boost of turbocharging, the precision of direct injection and the sophistication of twin independent variable camshaft timing (Ti-VCT). The result is an outstandingly smooth drive.

EIGHT-SPEED TRANSMISSION

More shift points when compared to previous model years make for a smooth drive. The Lincoln Nautilus® SUV features an eight-speed automatic transmission to create a more elegant and effortless sensation when shifting gears.

PRE-COLLISION ASSIST WITH AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING

We should all drive defensively, but sometimes other people's lack of attention can create a hazard. This feature scans the road ahead and can alert you to potential collisions with vehicles or pedestrians detected in your path.* If an impact becomes imminent and you don't take corrective action, the brakes can apply automatically. But don't worry - they'll only activate if they're needed.

Pre-collision Assist with Automatic Emergency braking detects pedestrians, but not in all conditions, and can help avoid or reduce a collision.
