3 across in FIVE seater KIA Rondo

[Lavendyr]

Hi All,
I have been searching this forum for awhile to try and find info on my specific car. We drive a 2008 Kia Rondo but it is only the 5 seat model. Most threads on here seem to be about the 7 seater.

We have a 3 year old and an 11 month old and due w/ baby #3 in early March.
Currently I have the 11 month old rear facing in a Graco My Ride 65 and the 3 year old FF in the Graco Myride 65. It is absolutely impossible to fit a third seat in there. I have accepted fact that I will need all new seats. Is my only option 3 Diono Radians?? I'd love to have a bucket/infant carrier seat for the new baby as our climate is very cold (Canada) and need to be able to put infant in carseat in the house. Need suggestions!! Has anyone fit 3 across successfully in a Kia Rondo? We live in a rural area so the only option is to order the seats online and I'm afraid maybe even the Radians won't fit! Maybe we just need a new vehicle.

You might email Quassee. She worked in a Rondo. I think the 7 seater. But I think she might has tried a 3 across because the 3rd row was not workable? This is a few years back.

I don't think the Rondo is sold in the USA? I could be wrong.

I'm not 100% sure, but I don't think the second row is much different between the 2 models, with the possible exception of the 7-passenger's ability to slide. Any info you find on 3-across the 2nd row should apply.

(I have a 7-passenger.)
