Comparison Review

Comfort
Rear passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Genesis GV80 than in the Volkswagen ID.4. As far as headroom and legroom go, there's not much difference between front seat comfort in the Genesis GV80 and the Volkswagen ID.4.

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 GV80 will definitely make more of a dent in your wallet than the Volkswagen ID.4, which has a much lower MSRP.

Dimensions
Since the Genesis GV80 is much wider than the Volkswagen ID.4, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging. If you go with the Genesis GV80, you may be circling the block looking for a space large enough to park more often than with the Volkswagen ID.4.

Handling
The Genesis GV80 has a larger turning radius than the Volkswagen ID.4, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When considering towing capacity, the Genesis GV80 is clearly the choice over the Volkswagen ID.4 for pulling heavy loads. The Genesis GV80 has a little less horsepower than the Volkswagen ID.4.

Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the Genesis GV80 does a much better job of transmitting its engine's horsepower to its wheels than the Volkswagen ID.4.

Utility
