2007 Kia Rondo

The smallest and least expensive seven-passenger vehicle on the market for its time, the Kia Rondo is smaller than a minivan, but taller and not as long a typical wagon. Still, the Kia offers impressive room for its compact size. With seating for up to seven, it nearly attains the utility of a minivan within the exterior dimensions of a small car. Fit and finish are very good and access is easy. The ride is comfortable and quiet, but handling is not particularly agile. We also found the seats uncomfortable, suspension noise annoying and the third-row seat too tight for children. All-wheel drive is not available. The Rondo was discontinued after 2010.

Brand context

About Kia

For almost any modern vehicle category, there’s a Kia that’s worth considering buying. Among small and midsized SUVs, models like the Sportage and Sorento rank near the top in their respective classes for their nice interiors, ride comfort, and appropriately powerful engines. SUVs like the Telluride have ride comfort, interior space, and overall value that earn it regular placement near the top of Consumer Reports’ ratings. Fuel economy across the brand is generally good, but hybrid and plug-in hybrid options are available for even more miles per gallon. Plug-in hybrid options have useful all-electric driving range. Kia EVs are generally competent, ranging from compact sedans up to a three-row SUV. Kia’s reliability scores have been improving, but other brands score higher in our rankings. Specific Kia models have earned our recommendation among used cars.
