Good family car
I bought the car in 2010 and it has serve our family well. The 7 seat option is very convenient when needing to bring extra guest to go around (not good for long trip though as they are no more trunk space).

It's also very confortable with the front seat and back seat by being able to sit higher. And the foldable seat option in the back are very convenient when needing to carry big/long/more objects.

Most versatile
Got my Rondo 2008 second hand, with 3 years and 32,000km on it... moved from PT Cruiser I LOVED for it's interior so flexible design - and ofcourse cool look :)
RONDO - once inside, same seating and all controles felt at very same place I had on PT that I had for 5 years... Felt right away at home. Good ride, confort and plenty of room inside... My 9ft kayak fit inside - with rear door closed. Love the car. Will love to have front passenger's seat's back to fold forward flat - as I had in PT Cruiser. Can be realy handy and practical... Home project: Install one man sleeping & "camping" quoters.
Problems? The CD of my radio give-up. And the A/C gave up just at the end of summer - so 1st think to do - in May?
Have 125,000 km on it now. Never let me down. Want to keep for 3 more years. Next car? 95% it will be RONDO again. The EX 2015+?

Awesome Practical Car
Excellent family vehicle with the 7 seats & they're easy to fold up or down, the kids could do it. We hauled a lot in it, furniture, building supplies, camp gear, hockey gear, plants. Great gas milage. We have been through BC with it 5 or 6 times, it has great pick-up thru the mountains. The DVD player kept the kids quiet & put them to sleep on long trips (JOY). Easy power controls & features; really love the heated seats. And my personal favorite is the power sunroof. The 7 seats has been so handy! hauling lots of kids with friends. It is really comfortable. Always been reliable for us!

Reliable and Versatile
This is the second KIA vehicle I've owned and both have been excellent purchases. They are reliable, comfortable, and in the case of the Rondo, extremely versatile. Hauling kids and their bags, or luggage for the road trip is extremely easy and the car is the right size so it's still easy to maneuver.

Reliable versatile daily driver
We have had our 2008 Rondo EX (4cyl) for 5 years now. It has been in the shop to replace the rear brake rotors, and that is it for maintenance. The seats are fairly comfortable until you've been driving for a few hours, after that your back will start to get sore. The 7-passenger seating has come in very handy for us, especially when the kids were younger, and the fold-down second row is great for hauling bigger items, although you will be hard pressed to get anything close to 4ft wide through the trunk door. Best fuel economy is in the 100-110 range, at 120kph+ there is a huge dropoff in fuel efficiency. Highway wind noise is brutal, the wind coming off the side mirrors just howls at highway speeds.

Nice Car
No issues, comfortable just wish it was better on gas. Love the heated seats, lots of room, stero is grat. I find that it is expensive to fix at the dealer. I would recommend to anyone.

The Rondo
We purchased this vehicle new. We required a vehicle that was economical, cheap and reliable. The vehicle also had to have 7 person capacity. The rondo was this and more. The only complaint is the standard issue rims the tires leak. Repair wise we have been all over the country and brakes and shocks have been all. We are truely pleased with this vehicle

2008 Kia Rondo

Love this car!
We purchased this car originally because of the great warranty that comes with Kia. Boy, did we ever fall in love with it quickly! It's got tons of room inside, is comfortable, fairly good on gas and has given us no problems at all. The dealership has been wonderful to deal with, when we need a service we get right in, there had been a recall on a part and they called us immediately and arranged pick up of the car for us and provided us with a loaner while ours was being repaired. Coming to the end of our lease and are going to be getting another
