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 X5 is somewhat more expensive than the Genesis GV60.

Dimensions
Since the BMW X5 is much wider than the Genesis GV60, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging. If you go with the BMW X5, you may be circling the block looking for a space large enough to park more often than with the Genesis GV60.

Performance
When considering towing capacity, the BMW X5 is clearly the choice over the Genesis GV60 for pulling heavy loads. The BMW X5 has a little more horsepower than the Genesis GV60.

Powertrain
With its lower torque engine, the BMW X5 doesn't do as good a job transmitting power to its wheels as the Genesis GV60.
