Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the backseat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Kia Sportage Hybrid than in the Cadillac OPTIQ, due to its greater head- and legroom. As far as headroom and legroom go, there's not much difference between front seat comfort in the Cadillac OPTIQ and the Kia Sportage Hybrid.

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 Cadillac OPTIQ will definitely make more of a dent in your wallet than the Kia Sportage Hybrid, which has a much lower MSRP.

Dimensions
Since the Cadillac OPTIQ is much wider than the Kia Sportage Hybrid, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging. For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the Cadillac OPTIQ, which is slightly longer than the Kia Sportage Hybrid.

The Cadillac OPTIQ has a larger turning radius than the Kia Sportage Hybrid, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the Cadillac OPTIQ does a much better job of transmitting its engine's horsepower to its wheels than the Kia Sportage Hybrid.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Cadillac OPTIQ and the Kia Sportage Hybrid. The Cadillac OPTIQ has significantly less cargo capacity than the Kia Sportage Hybrid.
