Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the back seat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Kia K4 than the Genesis G70, due to its greater head- and legroom. Offering just a little more front head- and legroom than the Kia K4, the Genesis G70 may be a little roomier and more comfortable for the driver and front seat passengers.

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Genesis G70 as you will with the Kia K4, as they get the same number of miles per 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). The Genesis G70 will definitely make more of a dent in your wallet than the Kia K4, which has a much lower MSRP.

Dimensions
The Genesis G70 is about the same width as the Kia K4. When looking at overall length, the Genesis G70 takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Kia K4.

Handling
The Genesis G70 has a larger turning radius than the Kia K4, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Genesis G70 has a much more powerful engine than the Kia K4. However, something you should consider is that higher horsepower engines often command higher insurance premiums.

Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the engine of the Genesis G70 does a much better job of transmitting power to the wheels than the Kia K4.

Utility
In terms of seating you'll be able to fit the same number of people in both the Genesis G70 and the Kia K4.
