Volkswagen Golf versus Kia Picanto

Two models side by side, using public data of the Dutch vehicle registry. Where the source has no value, it says unknown. This is not advice.

Source: RDW Open Data (https://opendata.rdw.nl), datasets m9d7-ebf2 and 8ys7-d773, public domain. For each model: the type-approval variant with the most registered passenger cars on the retrieval date. Consumption is the combined figure in the RDW fuel dataset, only where RDW holds one for a single-fuel car; otherwise unknown. Seats, doors and cylinders are the most common value among up to 400 registered cars of that variant; where the most common state is no recorded value (for example cylinders of an electric car) it is shown as unknown, not 0., date: 2026-11-06
