2007 KIA Rondo
I bought my Rondo in November, 2007. I had been looking at compact SUV's, wagons, etc. I had not found any vehicle that I liked the looks, storage space and price until I saw the Rondo. I fell in love immediately and bought it. No regrets. It is more comfortable, more economical and better driving than my 2004 Jeep Liberty.
Great value
Bought it new in 07. The Good: 59,000 trouble free miles, low 20's mpg around town, up to 32 mpg on highway. Comfortable seats, great visibility, economical & versatile. The Bad: easily stained seats, inadequate roof rack even with the optional cross pieces, too low ground clearance in back if carrying third row passengers. 64,000 Still a great all around vehicle....soon to replace second set of tires, had two transmission flushes, one set of brakes, one fuel filter, air & cabin filters.....might look at the serpentine belt next and change it for insurance......and 3 (?) recalls. ....almost forgot the CD player stopped ejecting CD's.....bought a brand new genuine KIA AM/FM CD on ebay for $110. and took about 15 minutes to install. 75,000 miles now .....on third set of low price budget tires, getting ready to do third transmission fluid change, still haven't changed the serpentine belt ( I got a serpentine belt gauge from Gates and it still checks okay) , still runs & rides like new !

What a piece of work!
Great car!!! This car has won me over. As a former Chevy Subn driver I have a hard time getting into just any vehicle. At 6'4" 370 I am no small twig. The Rondo has great room and a very peppy 4 cyl. I have only had the car about 4 months but so far I love it. There are a few things which could be improved upon but the pro's far outweigh the cons. I am going to miss my 4 wheel drive in the winter, but hey, let's face it, going from an average of 8 mpg to 20 mpg is a big difference. This car has exceeded my expectations and is definitely worth a look. Roomy, peppy and nice on the twisties, my Rondo was a great deal.
Fun from Korea
Took our '07 Rondo on a 3800 mile trip back to the midwest and was well satisfied with the handling and comfortability of this little crossover from our friends in Asia. Fuel mileage fit well within the EPA rating 21 to 29 mpg, where we got an avg of 26 mpg on the trip, and that was having the A/C on, cruise on at 80 mph. From graduating from an econobox on long trips to this Rondo, I never tired from sitting in this vehicle. Well worth the money these vehicles are priced at.
Great little station wagon.
15 years and 130,000 miles. Replaced $20 front stabilizer bars and the CD player broke.....Still runs great....... average 29 MPG on highway trips.....Recently went on 9,000 mile trip and used 3/4 quart of oil……..17 year 155,000 mile update, replaced the brake calipers since one had a torn boot and was sticking, otherwise all original parts and trouble free.
