Kia Rondo
When Kia decides to make changes, they don’t settle for half-measures. The Rondo, for example, has been comprehensively updated: the chassis, the body, the mechanics...you name it, everything is new and designed to reduce the overall weight of the car. It comes with a 164-hp 2.0L engine and the buyer can choose between two six-speed transmissions (automatic or manual).
