Lincoln, which today is Cadillac&#8217;s crosstown rival, was founded\u00a0in 1917 by Henry M. Leland (Leland named the brand after his longtime hero Abraham Lincoln)\u00a0and acquired by FoMoCo in 1922.<\/p>\n<p>Even today, there are a couple of things that truly differentiate one from the other. Here are some things we came up with:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Lincoln offers a 7-seater crossover with the MKT &#8211; Cadillac doesn&#8217;t.<\/li>\n<li>Cadillac offers a sporty sedan with the CTS &#8211; Lincoln doesn&#8217;t.<\/li>\n<li>Cadillac offers a sporty coupe with the CTS Coupe &#8211; Lincoln doesn&#8217;t.<\/li>\n<li>Lincoln&#8217;s MKS is much more appealing than the Cadillac STS and DTS (both long overdue for a redesign).<\/li>\n<li>Cadillac offers a &#8220;hybrid&#8221; with the Escalade &#8211; Lincoln has no hybrid in its lineup.<\/li>\n<li>Cadillac offers high-performance luxury with the CTS-V Sedan and Coupe &#8211; Lincoln doesn&#8217;t.<\/li>\n<li>Cadillac is working on a BMW 3-series rival with the ATS &#8211; Lincoln has no plans for the segment.<\/li>\n<li>Cadillac is working on a large-luxury sedan with the XTS &#8211; Lincoln&#8217;s Town Car desperately needs upgrading.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>With those facts out on the table &#8211; it seems like Cadillac is leaning more towards competing with dynamic European luxury while Lincoln is staying true to its American roots.<\/p>\n<p>So, with that in mind, if you were to purchase an American luxury vehicle today, what brand would you shop?
