Used 2007 Kia Rondo Consumer Reviews
Big value, Tall ride
Value on this car is great, but as a 6' 6" 300lb man, this car is a tall ride. There is head room to spare and my legs have space to roam. The Rondo was a surprise test drive and sold me from the moment I sat down. I cannot say enough good things about the space for me and my family, all tall kids and one small wife! We love it. Drives smoothly, good mileage and for a small van/wagon it looks nice too. The best out of 3 months of looking, test driving and researching.
Sporty lil wagon
I never could imagine Kia coming up with a car like this. i had a 98 kia sephia. "junk". now in 2008 i have a 2007 kia rondo. i bought it with 16K miles on it. other than a few small issues with the dealer the car is super. after we got the tires rotated and an alignment. i get in the area of 25 mph in town and nearly 35 on the highway. i can tell that Hyundai makes kia because the quality is leaps and bounds better than my first kia. i wouldn't hesitate in a second. go get this car.
I love my Rondo!
I replaced a Jeep I'd had for 6 years. I wanted a car offering good visibility, top safety features, good styling, heated leather seats, easy to get in and out of, not too glitzy, good compartments for storage. I did not need a 3rd row of seats. I drove the comparable cars, as well as other Kia models; chose the Rondo because it offered everything I was looking for. I would not compare the Rondo to minivans, no matter what reviewers say - it's in a class of its own. I get compliments all the time. It's sporty, attractive exterior styling, and roomy interior. It holds a lot of cargo! I've owned my Rondo for over a year, and I'd definitely buy another one
Rondo replacement for '99 Odyssey
Bought vehicle in July to drive x- country. My Rondo was more comfortable than it's replacement or my 04 Subaru Outback. Gas mileage was also respectable; over 2900 miles of mostly hwy driving, Rondo averaged approx 20 MPG. While driving through CA desert car cabin was comfortably cooled by AC. MPG heavily reduced by speed exceeding 60 MPH, and use of AC. Have found that on my 80 mile RT work commute, which is mainly hwy, mileage drops well below 20 MPG.
Where are all the Rondos?
My husband and I knew exactly what type of vehicle we wanted: sporty, great fuel economy, with a third row seat, and under $20K. After searching and searching we found the Rondo. But I'd never heard of the Rondo! And I'd never seen one on the road! We loved the car and purchased one. But over a month later I've only seen 2 other Rondos on the road. Where are all of the Rondos?? But that's okay with us. We know we got a great car for a great price!
