2008 Kia Rondo Seat Room and Comfort: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2007 4dr Wagon 162-horsepower 2.4L I4
4-speed shiftable automatic FWD		 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. see full Kia Rondo review
