Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: KRCS at none against Q8Car's shown. KRCS also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Q8Car's advantage is ratings volume (2.5K vs 3) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 5 months). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
