Best Reason to Buy the Kia Rondo: Materials & workmanship
Its fit and finish of sheet metal is excellent and doors close with safe door like solid thud!

Best Reason Not to Buy the Kia Rondo: Quietness
Too much tire and suspension noise and use of "H Grade" tires which are good for handling but a lot rougher ride and tire noise excess than regular all season types. Rather stiff springs which is good for a sports car which a Rondo is not!

Other Reasons to Buy the Kia Rondo: Powertrain performance, Driving position & visibility, Ride smoothness, Interior styling

Best Reason to Buy the Kia Rondo: Feature availability
Premium package adds sunroof, navigation, and upgraded stereo - well worth the money. EX trim adds heated seats and an attractive leather interior in gray, black, or beige. For its price, hard to find all of these features.

Best Reason Not to Buy the Kia Rondo: Fuel economy
Kia claims 18 city, 26 highway for the V6 and slightly higher for the V4. Not particularly impressive numbers.

Best Reason to Buy the Kia Rondo: Discounts & incentives
Despite being a capable vehicle, many buyers shy away from the Rondo due to brand reputation. This forces Kia to use significant incentives - several thousand dollars discount, and 0% financing are common.

Best Reason to Buy the Kia Rondo: Cargo capacity & towing
Roof rack for ski box and lots of room in second row for tall people.

Best Reason Not to Buy the Kia Rondo: Quietness
Driver side window noise is terrible and KIA does not appear willing to fix. Not everybody has this issue though so this problem is not on every car.

Other Reasons Not to Buy the Kia Rondo: Materials & workmanship, Audio & nav systems, Brand reputation & image, Past personal experience

Best Reason Not to Buy the Kia Rondo: Front seat support & comfort
It is difficult to find a comfortable driving position in the manual seat because the seat tilts forward as it lifts up. Lumbar support is poor an the steering wheel is too far away.

Other Reasons to Buy the Kia Rondo: Cargo capacity & towing, Safety & braking, Powertrain performance

Other Reasons Not to Buy the Kia Rondo: Fuel economy, Ride smoothness
