2009 Kia Rondo Seat Room and Comfort: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2008	4dr Wagon 182-horsepower 2.7L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD	Tall large people can sit in the second row with more comfort as they can in the front seats of our Honda Civic or Sebring convertible. Third row is not bad for short trips for adults and children would be good for longer trips. see full Kia Rondo review
