Performance
The Kia K4 allows you to choose from two engine options. The base engine offers 147 horsepower, while the upgrade gives you 190 horsepower. The VW Jetta is equipped with a 158-horsepower engine but does not offer any upgrades. Both models have front-wheel drive to provide a driving experience you can rely on.
Smooth shifts from the Intelligent Auto Transmission give the Kia K4 an uninterrupted performance to improve highway driving. The VW Jetta relies on an eight-speed automatic transmission. Choosing the Kia K4 can eke out slightly more MPG in the city. Both models offer up to 40 MPG on the highway, making them ideal for errands and road trips out of Brenham.
Interior Space
Keeping your passengers comfortable could be important for navigating the streets of College Station. The K4 offers up to 98.7 cubic feet of passenger space, with legroom reaching 42.3 inches in the front and 38 inches in the rear. The VW Jetta does not match these measurements, offering 94.7 cubic feet of passenger space, 41.1 inches of front legroom, and 37.4 inches of rear legroom.
You'll even get more cargo space by choosing the Kia K4. The trunk offers up to 14.6 cubic feet of space, whereas the Jetta has 14.1 cubic feet in its trunk. Having enough cargo space ensures you can fit everything you need without stacking items around your travelers. Keep passengers comfortable and don't leave any gear behind when you choose the new Kia K4 instead of the new VW Jetta.
Infotainment and Safety
Anyone looking for a more modern look and innovative technology can rely on the Kia K4. The standard touchscreen measures 12.3 inches, with an upgrade available to create a seamless display with the 12.3-inch digital gauge display and a 5.0-inch climate control screen. The Jetta features an 8.0-inch screen and does not offer any upgraded screen throughout its trims.
Both models include many systems to help with busy highways and city streets near Huntsville, but the Kia K4 includes a bit more than the Jetta. A Driver Attention Warning is standard for the K4 to ensure your focus stays on the road. It'll warn you when you should consider taking a break. The Jetta does not include a similar system. Knowing your new car is watching the road and ensuring your safety can instill confidence whenever you get into the driver's seat.
