Comparison Review

Comfort
Due to its greater rear head- and legroom, backseat passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Kia K4 than the Toyota Corolla Hybrid. Offering just a little more front head- and legroom than the Toyota Corolla Hybrid, 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 Toyota Corolla Hybrid, 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). When looking only at MSRP, the Kia K4 will have less of an impact on your bank account than the Toyota Corolla Hybrid.

Dimensions
Since the Kia K4 is much wider than the Toyota Corolla Hybrid, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging. When looking at overall length, the Kia K4 takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Toyota Corolla Hybrid.

Handling
The Kia K4 has about the same turning radius as the Toyota Corolla Hybrid, allowing equal maneuverability in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Kia K4 is somewhat more powerful than the Toyota Corolla Hybrid.

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