Redefines pickup sector with purposeful exterior and interior design and cutting-edge technology
Kia recently unveiled full details of the Kia Tasman, the brand’s first pickup truck. Marking the latest addition to Kia’s extensive lineup, which includes sedan, SUV, commercial and PBV (Platform Beyond Vehicle) models, the Kia Tasman sets the benchmark for Kia’s future pickup range.
Broader lifestyle
Injecting the legacy of Kia’s SUV models with exceptional off-road capability, including the robust Mohave, the Kia Tasman has been comprehensively engineered to meet customers’ diverse needs across all forms of terrain.
“Kia’s first-ever pickup truck was created from the ground up to transform the market and respond to the growing preference for lifestyle-oriented trucks with advanced features,” stated Ho Sung Song, President and CEO, Kia.
Dependable companion
“Created especially for explorers, adventurers and people who like to get things done, the Kia Tasman is designed to serve as a dependable companion in every situation,” commented Karim Habib, Executive Vice President and Head of Kia Global Design.
Trims and Specifications
The Kia Tasman is offered as a double cab base model and in X-Line and X-Pro trim. The X-Pro provides superior off-road performance thanks to its 28mm higher ground clearance, which totals 252mm. It is equipped with 17-inch gloss-black wheels with all-terrain tires, while X-Line features larger 18-inch alloy wheels paired with highway and terrain tires.
Pickup-specific features
To ensure that the Kia Tasman’s engine provides the level of protection expected by pickup customers when traversing water, Kia’s engineers have positioned the air intake inside the vehicle’s fender.
Advanced Technology
Ensuring that every element of the Kia Tasman’s chassis and suspension has been developed to soak up punishment across harsh off-road terrain also delivers excellent benefits for on-road driving.
