Kia Models vs Volkswagen Models

Kia vehicles are built for fun, with audacious color options and striking design accents. They are also built to make your drive easier, whether it's the supreme fuel economy of the Kia Forte to the versatility of the Kia Soul to the raw power of the Kia Sorento. Find your favorite model(s) and take it for a spin, whether it's using one of these helpful model research pages or at our dealership.

Here's some additional benefits all Kia vehicles share:

  • Peace of Mind. All Kia models come with an industry-leading 10-year/100,000-mile limited powertrain warranty and a 5-year/60,000-mile bumper-to-bumper warranty.
  • Quality craftsmanship. Every model on the lot, from the Forte compact to the Sorento SUV, is a well-crafted ride. For example, five Kia models were highest-ranked in initial quality in their class in the 2017 J.D. Power Initial Quality Study.

Kia Forte vs. Volkswagen Jetta compact cars

Kia Forte

The Forte takes out the Jetta with superior space, power and features. Every inch of this small-yet-powerful ride just oozes value and fun, with nearly 40 mpg highway and the ability to turn on a dime.

vs 2017 Jetta
vs 2016 Jetta

Kia Forte5 hatchback vs Volkswagen Golf

Kia Forte5

The fun alternative to the VW Golf's stoic disposition, the Forte5 hatchback is as nice to drive as it is pleasing to look at, with additional space for passengers and cargo, plus available heated seats.

vs 2018 Golf

Kia Optima vs VW Passat midsize sedans

Kia Optima

What else can we say about the Kia Optima, except that it's a high-flying midsize sedan that saves you money on gas while also delivering the kind of quality that wins awards like KBB.com Best Buy.

vs 2019 Passat
vs 2017 Passat
vs 2016 Passat

Kia Cadenza vs Volkswagen CC premium sedans

Kia Cadenza

When you're looking for a large sedan, you want space to relax in, which the Cadenza has plenty of, but not at the expense of power or audio, both of which Kia's large sedan has in spades.

vs 2016 CC

Kia Soul vs Volkswagen Beetle iconic vehicles brands and designs

Kia Soul

The boxy crossover (Soul) takes on the round icon (Beetle), and the Kia Soul wins by knockout with superior size and features. Experts agree, naming the Soul a top urban vehicle as well as a family car.

vs 2016 Beetle

Kia Sportage vs VW Tiguan small SUV crossovers

Kia Sportage

The redesigned Sportage looks strong and is stronger. This SUV carries serious thump under the hood, and its available 240 HP and superior tech options blow the Tiguan right off the road.

vs 2018 Tiguan
vs 2017 Tiguan
2017 vs 2016 Tiguan

Kia Sorento vs Volkswagen Touareg midsize SUVs
