2021 Porsche Cayenne vs. 2021 Lincoln Aviator

There are a lot of amazing things to expect once you become the owner of the 2021 Porsche Cayenne. One is the fact that it offers powerful engines, depending on the needs of its users. This luxury midsize SUV promises a well-appointed cabin too, as well as reliable technologies to back it up during short or long trips.

As for the 2021 Lincoln Aviator, the muscular engine lineup is one thing to look forward to. It is also equipped with a straightforward infotainment setup. There are no major changes for this ride though, when compared to its 2020 version.

Design & Style

The 2021 Cayenne defines elegance with its premium quality materials and soft-touch surfaces combined. The ride is modern and comfortable too, with well-padded leather upholstery for its seats. With a rear middle seat, it can accommodate up to five people, but without, it means four adults can comfortably join in the fun. Both rows of seats are amply-spaced, with enough legroom and headroom to accommodate tall passengers.

In the case of the Lincoln Aviator, there are three rows of seats that can accommodate seven for its basic configuration. This can be dropped down to six with captain’s chairs instead of the second-row bench. What makes the ride quite disappointing is it uses synthetic leather upholstery, which does not really feel right for a luxury vehicle.

Technology & Safety

The 2021 Porsche Cayenne uses a 12.3-inch touch screen for its PCM infotainment system. This one actively responds to user inputs, and has easily readable graphics to display all the time. The ride supports smartphone integration via Apple CarPlay, and is also gifted with other amenities like 10 speakers, Bluetooth, four USB ports, a satellite radio, and a navigation system. Safety wise, it is given front and rear parking sensors, as well as a rearview camera.

The SYNC 3 infotainment interface brings life to that of the Lincoln Aviator 2021 version. This one uses a 10.1-inch touch screen. The entire setup is easy-to-use and features other amenities like 10 speakers, Bluetooth, four USB ports, a Wi-Fi hot spot and a satellite radio.  For safety, it is equipped with front and rear parking sensors, rearview camera, blind spot monitoring, lane keep assist, among others.

Performance

The 2021 Porsche Cayenne has a V6 engine under the hood of its base trim. This one yields up to 335 horsepower. The twin-turbo V6, on the other hand, allows it to put off 434 horsepower. The V8 gives it a result of 541 horsepower.

The Aviator, on the other hand, has two engine versions. One is the twin-turbo engine that results in 400 horsepower, and the other is paired with an electric motor that is ready to put off 494 horsepower.

The Bottom Line

The 2021 Porsche Cayenne is more than just a sporty ride. It looks good, and has all the amenities that you need. It is definitely better in all aspects than that of the 2021 Lincoln Aviator.
