Monday, February 07, 2011
Many of you reading this review are no more interested in cars or buying one than you are looking forward to your next papercut. But if you're here, you probably need one and are wisely searching for pertinent info. We auto peeps sometimes forget to keep things basic as we eat, sleep and breathe cars.

2009 Kia Rondo EX-V6 Luxury Review
Thursday, October 29, 2009
The 2009 Kia Rondo could just as easily be described as a scaled-down passenger van or a modern wagon with a raised roof. Seriously, don't you think it's a cross between a minivan like the Kia Sedona and a compact wagon like the Hyundai Elantra Touring?

Easy to spot 2007 Kia Rondo!
Friday, July 06, 2007
Kia has given us a sneak peek of their future CUV (crossover utility vehicle) by showing us their Multi-S Concept at the 2005 Frankfurt Motor Show. The "S" in the name represented "sporty, spacious and smart" and the vehicle itself was a crossover between a small wagon, European-style MPVs, small SUVs and the versatility of the PT Cruiser-type vehicles.

2008 Kia Rondo EX-V6 7-Seater Review
Monday, September 15, 2008
On Saturday, August 2nd, I made a trip to our nation's capital. Soon after leaving our offices in Laval, I drove into a severe thunderstorm on Highway 417. The Kia Rondo EX-V6 never flinched and proved quite competent despite the elements. The wipers and ventilating system were both up to the task, keeping the windshield clear and the passengers comfortable.

2008 Kia Rondo EX V6 Review
Sunday, July 06, 2008
You've all heard of the expression "wake up and smell the coffee". Well, I kind of feel like I have just done that. Let me explain... You see, I've never really taken much notice of the company, Kia. Oh yes, I've driven one or two vehicles from them at various test fests which I attend, and I've tested plenty of cars from its sister company Hyundai, but I don't believe that I have actually ever driven a Kia product for longer than a few minutes at one time.

2008 Kia Rondo EX Review
Thursday, June 12, 2008
Kia offers a fairly comprehensive model lineup, yet it does not really stand out in any particular category. That's why the Rondo was created. Now available in Canada, this small minivan was already being sold in Europe under a different name (Carens). The Rondo is obviously the main rival of the Mazda5.

2007 Kia Rondo EX Road Test
Thursday, June 07, 2007
Risk or no risk? How does a car manufacturer evaluate the potential risks when introducing a new model or worse, creating a new segment? Is it going to work? Will people buy it? How much money can I make or lose? I recently finished reading Lee Iacocca's latest book and his legacy is that of taking risks. Two of his undertakings proved to be immense success stories: the Ford Mustang and the Chrysler Minivan.

Gone is the dash-mounted flower vase in the latest version of Volkswagen's Bug. Gone too is much of its cutesiness, replaced by a notable degree of sportiness intended to broaden the Beetle's target market by attracting male attention.
