Additional Notes
- The Kia Rondo RP 2.0 GDI (CAN) carries a transaxle automatic transmission fluid capacity of 7.1 liters across all model years from 2013 through 2018, with no variation between the 2013-2016 and 2017-2018 production periods.
- A 7.1-liter capacity is consistent with a service fill figure, representing the amount of fluid required during a standard drain-and-refill procedure rather than a complete overhaul, which would typically require a higher volume to account for fluid retained in the torque converter and valve body.
- Under normal use conditions, no change interval is listed for the 2.0 GDI (CAN) in either the 2013-2016 or 2017-2018 period, meaning only the 7.1-liter capacity figure is specified for that condition.
- Under severe use conditions, a 60,000-mile change interval applies to the 2.0 GDI (CAN) for both the 2013-2016 and 2017-2018 model year groups, paired with the same 7.1-liter capacity.
- The 60,000-mile severe-use interval tied to the 2.0 GDI (CAN) reflects a shortened service schedule relative to what would typically be expected under normal driving conditions, accounting for greater thermal and mechanical stress placed on the fluid.
