Kia Reveals First Image of Tasman Pickup Truck Ahead of Global Rollout

Kia has revealed an Australia-inspired camouflage wrap for the Kia Tasman, the brand’s highly anticipated new pickup truck which it names after Tasmania, the island at the southernmost tip of Australia.

Crafted in partnership with acclaimed artist Richard Boyd-Dunlop from Australia and New Zealand, the vibrant wrap draws inspiration from the diverse landscapes of Australia.

Set to be introduced in 2025, the Tasman represents Kia's debut in the Light Commercial Vehicle sector, with a phased rollout planned for key markets such as Korea, Australia, Africa, and the Middle East. Once launched, this midsize body-on-frame vehicle will compete with the Ford Ranger and Toyota Hilux.

Equipped with a 2.2-liter turbocharged four-cylinder diesel engine, which it shares with other Hyundai and Kia models, the Kia Tasman is anticipated to also offer an electric variant in the future.
