Comfort
Due to its greater rear head- and legroom, backseat passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the BMW 530 than the Hyundai IONIQ 6. The Hyundai IONIQ 6 will be a favorite with taller drivers due to its greater front head- and legroom than the BMW 530.

Cost

If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the BMW 530, which is slightly longer than the Hyundai IONIQ 6.
