We also suspect the odometer is off by 10% as well. I e-mailed the kia website and the kia local people called me about the speedometer issue, asked me some details and never called back. I'm assuming they know about this problem and they're just ignoring it. Otherwise, the carens is really a great vehicle.

I noticed that also.. I've been used to travelling at 120 kph with my lynx at NLex (dun din kasi natin mate test yung mga ganung speed). At that speed, medyo nangagantod na tuhod ko. Pero pansin ko kahit nasa 120 na yung needle sa Carens, parang mabagal pa rin feeling ko parang 90 kph lang. Hindi rin kaya for safety measure na rin ito or was it intentionally designed that way? Or is it because in the US rondo version, naka 17" yung wheels nila as standard?
