Side-by-side benchmark comparison across agentic, coding, multimodal, knowledge, reasoning, and math workflows.

Exaone 4.0 32B is clearly ahead on the aggregate, 83 to 59. The gap is large enough that you do not need to squint at the spreadsheet to see the difference.

Exaone 4.0 32B is the reasoning model in the pair, while Kimi K2.5 is not. That usually helps on harder chain-of-thought-heavy tests, but it can also mean more latency and more token spend in real use.

Quick Verdict

Pick Exaone 4.0 32B if you want the stronger benchmark profile. Kimi K2.5 only becomes the better choice if knowledge is the priority or you would rather avoid the extra latency and token burn of a reasoning model.
