Kia has unveiled the final teaser video and images of the Kia Tasman ahead of the brand’s debut entry into the pick-up truck market. The Kia Tasman will make its world premiere at the Jeddah International Motor Show later this month. The latest video captures Kia’s development and exhaustive testing of its first-ever pick-up model.

Kia says the Tasman has been designed so owners can engage in a broad range of professional and lifestyle activities while addressing the drawbacks typical of existing pick-up truck designs. It’s a progressive pick-up that offers genuine utility, enhancing experiences and broadening possibilities.

Buyers are invited to ‘Dive into a New Dimension’ thanks to the company’s claim of the Tasman’s impressive off-road capability and top-tier features that include its revolutionary design, adaptability and safety.

The Kia Tasman was subject to a rigorous and extensive testing and development process, says the company, which was showcased through the brand’s ‘One More Round’ campaign.

This series followed the pick-up as it underwent 1,777 specific tests conducted over more than 18,000 cycles of evaluation.

Kia says the series’ title ‘One More Round’ signifies the immense efforts and determination to set the highest possible standards during the Kia Tasman’s development. Taking place across a range of environments, these covered everything from off-road testing to wading, all-terrain durability, towing, on-track performance, and ride and handling.

The Kia Tasman will make its world premiere at the Jeddah International Motor Show on October 29th at 10am Saudi time / 8pm New Zealand time. The event will also be live-streamed on the Kia Worldwide YouTube channel.

How on earth to start this? I've been car/bike/truck crazy since I was a teen. Like John, I had the obligatory Countach poster on the wall. I guess I'm more officially into classic and muscle cars than anything else - I currently have a '65 Sunbeam Tiger that left the factory the same day as I left the hospital as a newborn with my mother. How could I not buy that car? In 2016 my wife and I drove across the USA in a brand-new Dodge Challenger, and then shipped it home. We did this again in 2019 in a 1990 Chev Corvette - you can read about that trip on DriveLife, and again in 2023 buying a C5 Corvette and shipping it home. I'm a driving instructor and an Observer for the Institute of Advanced Motorists - trying to do my bit to make our roads safer.
