Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the backseat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Lincoln Nautilus than in the Jeep Wrangler, due to its greater head- and legroom. As far as headroom and legroom go, there's not much difference between front seat comfort in the Jeep Wrangler and the Lincoln Nautilus.

Convenience
With the Lincoln Nautilus, you will definitely be making fewer stops at the gas station than with the Jeep Wrangler, due to its tank size and fuel economy.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). When looking only at MSRP, the Jeep Wrangler will have less of an impact on your bank account than the Lincoln Nautilus.

Dimensions
Since the Jeep Wrangler is much slimmer than the Lincoln Nautilus, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. The Jeep Wrangler is slightly shorter than the Lincoln Nautilus, which may make it easier to park.

Handling
The Jeep Wrangler has a larger turning radius than the Lincoln Nautilus, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When considering towing capacity, the Jeep Wrangler is clearly the choice over the Lincoln Nautilus for pulling heavy loads. The Jeep Wrangler has a little more horsepower than the Lincoln Nautilus.

Powertrain
With its lower torque engine, the Jeep Wrangler doesn't do as good a job transmitting power to its wheels as the Lincoln Nautilus.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Jeep Wrangler and the Lincoln Nautilus. The Jeep Wrangler has a roomier cargo area for putting your bags or other items than the Lincoln Nautilus.
