About this generation

The second generation of the Kia Carens built on Magentis MG platform with 7-seat option and CRDi diesel. The model combines proven engineering reliability, refined ergonomics, and great comfort.

The second-generation Kia Carens (UN; sold as Rondo in North America) debuted in 2006. Built on the Magentis/Optima MG platform, its wheelbase stretched to 2,700 mm and length to 4,545 mm, offering flat-folding 5- or 7-passenger seating. This generation of the Carens (UN) was produced from 2006 to 2013 and offered in minivan body styles. Built on an engineered platform, it features strong structural rigidity, refined aerodynamics, and advanced occupant safety engineering. The generous wheelbase and clever interior packaging ensure superior passenger accommodation and ergonomic comfort for long travel.

Powertrains included 2.0L (144 hp) and 2.4L (175 hp) petrol engines, a 2.0L LPG unit, and a 2.0L CRDi diesel (140 hp). A 2010 update added the Tiger Nose grille. The powertrain lineup features modern engines optimized for thermal efficiency, balancing responsive acceleration with economical fuel consumption. Power is delivered through reliable manual or automatic transmissions. Mid-cycle updates introduced modernized LED lighting graphics, premium cabin materials, and enhanced active driver assistance suites. The model achieved strong global commercial success thanks to its balanced blend of versatility, efficiency, and owner value.
