Compare Tesla vs. Lincoln PHEVs in Sioux Falls, SD
Brand Comparison: Lincoln vs. Tesla
Lincoln and Tesla may not seem like they have much in common at first, but the two are competitively priced and are both positioned as luxury brands. But odds are, you can only choose one - and there are many good reasons why Sioux Falls, SD, shoppers choose Lincoln over the competition.
Peace of Mind: Lincoln Unlimited Roadside Assistance
Both Tesla and Lincoln vehicles offer competitive powertrain warranties and extensive rust and corrosion warranties. But what happens if you break down, or get a flat? You'll be out of luck with a Tesla vehicle, which comes with no Roadside Assistance without paying extra for a third-party service. Lincoln, on the other hand, provides shoppers with an incredible lifetime Roadside Assistance that can even be transferred to the next owner. If you want peace of mind, Lincoln is the brand you want.
Real Luxury and Quality
Tesla might market itself and price itself like a luxury brand, but between Lincoln and Tesla, it's obvious which brand really emphasizes enduring luxury and quality. Tesla doesn't offer leather upholstery in its vehicles, and its unbranded sound system - with no optional upgrades - can't compete with available features that Lincoln offers, like the Revel® Ultima 3D Audio System with 28 Speakers found in the Lincoln Navigator. The 48.0-inch Panoramic Display - also exclusive to Lincoln vehicles - integrates seamlessly with the cabin and its occupants. In contrast, Tesla vehicles offer a spartan interior that, depending on the model, might not even offer a gauge cluster at all.
Usability and Practicality
Tesla vehicles offer plenty of performance, it's true - but how much of that will you really use day-to-day? If you need to tow, for example, a Tesla vehicle might not work for you. The Model X can tow a maximum of 5,500 pounds, but likely cuts your range in half. The smaller Model 3 can only tow 3,500 pounds. On the other hand, vehicles like the Lincoln Navigator can tow a whopping 8,700 pounds, and you won't be forced to stop to refuel before you're ready. The Lincoln Aviator can tow up to 5,000 pounds.
Similarly, both the Lincoln Navigator and Model X offer three rows of seats. However, the Model X offers only 32.2 inches of third-row legroom, while the Lincoln Navigator offers 43.5. The story is the same regarding storage space: Model X has 92.3 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats. The Lincoln Navigator, 107 cubic feet. We know which one we want hauling our family around.
Tesla Model X vs. Lincoln Nautilus Hybrid
Tesla Model X
Lincoln Nautilus Hybrid
Get ready for sticker shock - the Model X starts at $79,990. That's almost $25,000 more than the standard Lincoln Nautilus equipped with the hybrid powertrain. Things can quickly get even more expensive, too, as Tesla charges $2,500 for many of its paint options - so if you want a silver or red car, it will be a costly upgrade. Comparatively, Lincoln offers premium paints at just $750. Even with a serious price delta, the Lincoln offers standard features that you can't even option on the Model X - like a premium, 10-speaker audio system - and equivalent options that would cost several thousands of dollars to add, like Lincoln BlueCruise® Hands-Free Highway. Dollar for dollar, there is hardly a comparison.
Tesla Model Y vs. Lincoln Corsair Grand Touring Plug-In Hybrid
The Lincoln Corsair Grand Touring Plug-In Hybrid comes with plenty of features standard that the Tesla Model Y doesn't even offer - leather-trimmed seats, a leather-trimmed steering wheel, and sliding second-row seats, for example. All-wheel drive is standard on the Lincoln Corsair Grand Touring Plug-In Hybrid, a $3,000 upcharge on the Model Y. Finally, the Model Y gets 337 miles from a full charge on the South Dakota roads - less when it's cold - whereas the Lincoln Corsair Grand Touring Plug-In Hybrid can roam up to 377 miles before needing to refuel.
