This MPV is the year 2010 Kia Rondo, Theta Engine. When throttle is depressed to suddenly get the RPM to 4000+, so as to have a quick pick up, some kind of burnt smell comes into the cabin.
In normal gentle driving mode, engine RPM < 3000 in terms of gear shift, no such smell.
What could be the possible reasons ?

Thanks for feedback, this coming service has to find the root cause.
