Next Kia Rondo to debut at Paris motor show

Kia showed off its all-new Carens compact ute on its European press Web site on Wednesday. The car will come to the United States as the new Rondo, looking much more slick and aerodynamic than its predecessor.

The full reveal for the Carens/Rondo happens during the Paris auto show in September.

Kia says the new Carens “will combine sporty looks with spacious functionality and an emotional appeal that is becoming a regular feature of Kia products.”

The new Rondo will get a lower roofline, a longer wheelbase, larger wheels and a chrome beltline accent.
