They're in the same genre (though not subgenre), that's the point for comparison.
I think there's a bit of revisionism going on though, Mario Kart tends to get retroactively positioned as the heavy weight juggernaut but that's not at all the case. Before this generation, no Mario Kart had sold over 10m, while every GT had. This gen we have two Mario Karts over 20m, and two GTs that likely won't hit 10m... it's really been a massive seachange this gen, and more reflective of the overall consumer shift towards Nintendo and away from PlayStation.
