Comparison Review

Comfort
The Audi Q5 offers rear passengers about the same room to stretch out as the Genesis GV70, with comparable head- and legroom. The Genesis GV70 offers just a little more front head- and legroom than the Audi Q5, offering the driver and front passenger a bit more room and comfort.

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Audi Q5 as you will with the Genesis GV70, as they are both able to travel similar distances on a tank of gas.

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 Audi Q5 will have less of an impact on your bank account than the Genesis GV70.

Dimensions
The Audi Q5 is about the same width as the Genesis GV70. When looking at overall length, the Audi Q5 takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Genesis GV70.

Handling
The Audi Q5 has a larger turning radius than the Genesis GV70, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When considering towing capacity, the Audi Q5 is clearly the choice over the Genesis GV70 for pulling heavy loads. The Audi Q5 has a little less horsepower than the Genesis GV70.

Powertrain
With its lower torque engine, the Audi Q5 doesn't do as good a job transmitting power to its wheels as the Genesis GV70.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Audi Q5 and the Genesis GV70. The Audi Q5 has less cargo space than the Genesis GV70, which is okay if you don't need to move a lot in one trip.
