Kia sales consultants are offering Rondo models with an average reduction of VND 29-34 million. In Vietnam, the car has 2 versions GMT and GAT Luxury, listed prices are 559 million VND and 655 million VND, the latter price is reduced to 530 million VND and 621 million VND. However, some agents also offer additional discounts for customers. The lowest GMT version is only 520 million VND, and the GAT version is 601 million VND.
Kia Rondo has the lowest price of 520 million VND at the dealer.
Since its launch in Vietnam in 2014, Kia Rondo has experienced many price reductions. Most recently, in December 2020, this model reduced the proposed price from 14-26 million VND. Currently, in addition to discounts from dealers, buyers are also given accessories and enjoy a 50% reduction in registration fee because Kia Rondo is assembled domestically.
Kia Rondo has dimensions length x width x height 4,525 x 1,805 x 1,610 mm, wheelbase 2,750 mm and ground clearance 151 mm. In terms of dimensions, the Kia Rondo is longer and wider, but lower due to its low ground clearance compared to the Mitsubishi Xpander. Low ground clearance is one of the weaknesses on the Kia Rondo, when most Vietnamese prefer small MPVs with high ground clearance because of its versatility.
Both GMT and GAT Luxury versions share the same Nu 2.0L petrol engine, producing 158 hp at 6,500 rpm and 194 Nm of torque at 4,800 rpm. Front-wheel drive, optional 6-speed manual or 6-speed automatic transmission.
The highest version is equipped with halogen headlights with Projector lenses, automatically on / off. Along with that are automatic wipers, daytime positioning lights, electric / folding rearview mirrors. The interior is simple with an 8-inch central screen, 6 audio speakers, a steering wheel with gearshift paddles, 3 driving modes, air filter, 2 indoor units and leather seats. Outstanding safety technology can be mentioned as ABS, EBD, automatic throttle, speed limiter, reverse camera and 2 airbags system.
In general, Kia Rondo is slightly better in terms of equipment than the emerging small MPV group on the market, but the design has not been updated for a long time, low chassis, 3rd row seats have less space than competitors Xpander or Xpander. XL7, no ceiling-mounted air-con vents and 2.0L petrol engine are not suitable for service drivers… making this model gradually lose its appeal.
From August 2021 until now, THACO has not reported sales of Kia Rondo, although the dealer announced that it still has enough cars produced in 2021 and 2022. In addition, it is rumored that, Kia Carens 2022 will be brought home by the end of this year.
