Comparison Review

Comfort
The BMW 530 offers a bit more room for passengers in the back seat than the Genesis G70. The Genesis G70 will be a favorite with taller drivers due to its greater front head- and legroom than the BMW 530.

Convenience
With the BMW 530 you will definitely be making fewer stops at the gas station than with the Genesis G70, due to its larger tank size and better 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). The BMW 530 will definitely make more of a dent in your wallet than the Genesis G70, which has a much lower MSRP.

Dimensions
Since the BMW 530 is much wider than the Genesis G70, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging. If you go with the BMW 530, you may be circling the block looking for a space large enough to park more often than with the Genesis G70.

Handling
The BMW 530 has a larger turning radius than the Genesis G70, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
The BMW 530 has less horsepower than the Genesis G70, so it will probably be somewhat slower.

Powertrain
With its lower torque, the BMW 530 doesn't do as good a job transmitting power to its wheels as the Genesis G70.

Utility
In terms of seating you'll be able to fit the same number of people in both the BMW 530 and the Genesis G70.
