Well the Corolla has a proven track record in terms of reliability. On the other hand, I think Toyota charges a bit of a premium for its nameplate these days, and Kia tends to discount their prices a bit in a bid to gain market share. Then too, Kia offers a pretty substantial warranty on its cars--as I recall 10 years or 100,000 miles, which is subtantially better than Toyota's warranty. One final consideration, depending upon how long you intend to keep the car, is that Toyota has a generally strong resale value across all of its models, so statistically speaking, you are likely not to see it depreciate as much--but of course that only matters if you do not intend to run it until it drops dead.

Don't even think about a kia. My dealership serviced them and we had to stop because lack of parts and good service from the suppliers. And believe me, you will need service because they are not a good investment. I have a Toyota myself and since 2004 I have never had to take it to warranty.

I had a Corolla which had over 500 000 miles on the clock when it was stolen so think for yourself.
