What affects its junk value
- Age: at 14 years old, most of a 2012 Rondo's value comes from reusable parts and scrap metal, not resale.
- Weight: as a wagon, it weighs less than a truck or SUV, so its value leans more on parts than on scrap weight. See how scrap prices by weight work.
- Catalytic converter: like all gas and diesel cars, it has a catalytic converter containing precious metals, one of the most valuable parts on a junk car. An offer assumes it's still in place. More on catalytic converters.

Selling a 2012 Rondo: questions
How much is a 2012 Kia Rondo worth for junk?
