There are apparently quite a few more on U.S. roads than there were last year. Three more actually. Which brings the total number ever sold in the U.S. to, uh, three.<br /><br />Some sharp-eyed journalist over at <a href="http://www.autonews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/frontpage?ws=uf">Automotive News</a> noticed the odd sales figure at the bottom of Kia's recently-released October sales numbers. They quote a Kia spokesman saying Kia is mounting a soft launch of the Rondo. The Rondo is not being advertised. The Rondo is not listed anywhere on either <a href="http://kia.com/index.php">Kia's consumer Web site</a> nor on their media site. Maybe instead of soft launch the spokesman should have said mushy. Or even nonexistent.<br /><br />The Kia employee also says they expect to sell 500 by the end of December. <br /><br />Um, good luck!<br /><br />Check out the sales chart for yourself after the jump.<br /><br />[Source: Automotive News]<p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2006/11/05/wheres-rondo-kia-sells-three-in-the-u-s/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Where's Rondo?
