In terms of choice, Kia gives buyers the broader line-up with 6 models to pick from. DENZA covers Van body styles, while Kia covers SUV. The right pick comes down to budget, the body style you need and how far you drive: choose Kia to spend less getting in, or Kia for the longest range on a single charge.

The two brands target different body styles, so they rarely go head-to-head on the same segment. DENZA's prices span ฿435,000 from cheapest to dearest, against ฿2,500,000 for Kia — the wider ladder gives Kia more room to match a specific budget.
