I drove the GS4 for several years and recently upgraded to the GS5—the experience is completely different. The GS4 is more suitable for daily city driving, with its compact size making parking easy and fuel consumption averaging 7-8 liters per 100 km. However, the rear seating space is a bit cramped, and my family often complained during long trips. The GS5 is larger, with a longer wheelbase, allowing more legroom and a bigger trunk for luggage. In terms of power, the GS4's engine is decent but slightly weak at acceleration, while the GS5 offers improved power, smoother acceleration, and better stability at high speeds. The GS5 also comes with additional features like adaptive cruise control and safety systems such as automatic emergency braking, making driving more effortless. The price difference is around 30,000 to 40,000 RMB, but considering family needs, the GS5 is worth the extra cost, though maintenance expenses are similar. Overall, the GS4 is economical and practical, while the GS5 offers more luxury and comfort.
