Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the backseat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Kia EV9 than in the Cadillac XT4, due to its greater head- and legroom. The Kia EV9 will be a hit with tall drivers and their front seat passengers, since it has greater front head- and legroom than the Cadillac XT4.

Due to its much higher torque, the Cadillac XT4 does a much better job of transmitting its engine's horsepower to its wheels than the Kia EV9.
