The 2025 Kia Tasman carries a braked towing capacity of up to 3500 Kg, but check to ensure this applies to the configuration you're considering.
The Kia Tasman 2025 prices range from $42,990 for the basic trim level Dual Cab S (4X2) (0.9T) Black Fender to $74,990 for the top of the range Dual Cab X-Pro (4X4) (Std) Body Fender.
The Kia Tasman's interior is headlined by a rough-and-ready design that's appropriate for a workhouse and weekend warrior. There are hard-wearing materials in the right places, but elsewhere impresses with its premium touches, including a touchscreen multimedia system and a digital instrument cluster in certain variants.
The Kia Tasman is powered by the Korean brand's tried-but-true 2.2-litre turbo-diesel four-cylinder engine. It produces 154kW of power and 441Nm of torque in the ute, to help it compete with the segment heavyweights. An eight-speed torque-converter automatic transmission is fitted along with the option between 4x2 and 4x4 drivetrains.
The Kia Tasman is expected to be available in a wide range of colours, including the usual white, silver, black, red and blue.
The Kia Tasman was named after Dutch explorer Abel Tasman, the man credited as the first European to 'discover' Tasmania, after who it is named.

While not yet confirmed, the Kia Tasman is expected to have a long list of standard equipment, with more premium features added higher in the range.
Specificially, it's expected to come with a touchscreen multimedia system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto support, and Bluetooth connectivity.
Safety-wise, advanced driver-assist systems should include autonomous emergency braking (AEB), lane-keep assist, blind-spot monitoring and adaptive cruise control, among others.
The Kia Tasman is available in a dual-cab configuration with five seats split across two rows, with two buckets in the front and a three-seat bench in the rear. There's also a single-cab option with a single row of seating for two.
The Kia Tasman does not have an official 0-100km/h time or top speed. That said, it should mimic other utes with a circa 10-second triple-digit sprint.
While not yet confirmed, the Kia Tasman is expected to have a long driving range thanks to a large fuel tank and a relatively efficient diesel engine. Using its rivals as a guide, a 4x4 version should average about 8.0L/100km on the combined-cycle test.
