Comfort
Passengers in the back seat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Lexus ES 350 than the Kia K4, due to its greater head- and legroom.
Offering just a little more front head- and legroom than the Lexus ES 350, the Kia K4 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 Kia K4 as you will with the Lexus ES 350, 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). Based on MSRP, the Kia K4 is clearly a better financial choice over the Lexus ES 350.
Dimensions
The Kia K4 is about the same width as the Lexus ES 350.
If you go with the Kia K4, you'll have a much easier time finding a large enough space to park than you will with the Lexus ES 350.
Handling
The Kia K4 has a significantly smaller turning radius than the Lexus ES 350, allowing much better maneuverability in and out of tight spots.
Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Kia K4 is significantly less powerful than the Lexus ES 350. The good news is that, reportedly, cars with lower horsepower engines often have lower insurance premiums.
Powertrain
The Kia K4 has much less torque than the Lexus ES 350, which generally means that it won't feel as fast or powerful.
Utility
In terms of seating you'll be able to fit the same number of people in both the Kia K4 and the Lexus ES 350.
