Lamborghini Urus vs Lincoln Nautilus: Specs Compared

Running cost over five years: at the EPA's 15,000-mile-a-year assumption the Lincoln Nautilus burns about $2,050 of fuel annually against $3,800 for the Lamborghini Urus. That $1,750 yearly gap compounds to roughly $8,750 over five years and $14,000 over eight — often more than the price difference between two trims of the same vehicle, and the single largest running-cost line item separating these two.

City and highway economy: the Lincoln Nautilus leads in both cycles — 30 mpg city and 31 mpg highway against 19 and 21 mpg — so its fuel-efficiency advantage holds whether you commute in traffic or cover long highway miles.

Powertrain choice: the Lamborghini Urus is recorded with 4 distinct engine configurations (SIDI; PHEV, SIDI, 4.0), the Lincoln Nautilus with 3 (SIDI & PFI; Hybrid, SIDI & PFI, SIDI). Across 10 recorded Lamborghini Urus configurations and 28 for the Lincoln Nautilus, the wider the engine spread the more the real-world fuel efficiency depends on which version you actually buy, so check the specific model year and drivetrain rather than the headline number.

Drivetrain and class: the Lamborghini Urus is offered with 4-Wheel Drive, All-Wheel Drive, the Lincoln Nautilus with Part-time 4-Wheel Drive, All-Wheel Drive, Front-Wheel Drive. All-wheel drive typically costs one to two mpg combined against the same vehicle in front- or rear-wheel drive, which is worth remembering when the gap between these two is small. The EPA classes them as Standard Sport Utility Vehicle 4WD and Small Sport Utility Vehicle 4WD respectively — the class drives the interior volume, cargo space and passenger space each one is measured against.

Tailpipe emissions: at their cleanest configurations the Lamborghini Urus emits 166 g/mile of CO2 versus 290 g/mile for the Lincoln Nautilus. Emissions track fuel consumption almost exactly, so the cleaner vehicle here is also the cheaper one to fuel.
