When I first saw it I was with the crowd that criticised it's looks. But the more I see it (and also in this colour), I'm rapidly warming to it. The MN Triton was like that for me too. I ended buying one and I have to say it has been the best car I've ever owned almost 10 years on. I'm willing to bet this car will find it's success in the Australian car maket and it will have very a loyal group of owners. I think the interior is light years ahead of every single 4wd ute on the market.
Although this ute is designed for Australia & NZ, but I'm deeply impressed by the interior design and quality. Kia is making an American level pick-up truck for the Down Under. Thanks 👍
They didn't listen about the engine choices though. That'll kill them here. Petrol might do ok, Diesel is underpowered as everyone predicted. They say it's 3.5t rated, but it's going to be horrendous to actually pull.
Своего покупателя пикап 100% найдёт, а время расставит все за и против! Но инженеры и дизайнеры концернов Тойота и Форд явно напряглись - это и есть здоровая конкуренция, ведущая мир авто к шедеврам!👍
This is next level interior wise. This just took over every ute under AUD100,000 though i like the front end. I really done like the side wheel arches.
Look at those wheel arches! Its like they fired the first designer halfway through and and the second designer said nah i want it wider and i want square wheel arches not round. And here we are. Different isnt always better
The thing that sells cars is Looks, obviously Kia do not want to sell cars, I think the guy who designed the looks of this car should be looking for another job
What on earth were you thinking KIA? We're not looking for conformity, but we're also not looking for fugly. Why do automakers continually get design so incredibly wrong?
So many vehicles are just plain ugly. I thought car designers would be highly talented but so many cars seem to be designed by amateurs and committees.
Sweet. Except the tailgate, it has unique feature from other common trucks: Work surface, double glove boxes from Ford. Slide rear seats, bed wall storage from RAM. If this one has hybrid, it will be the Maverick biggest competition.
Kia and Hyundai are great designs and has a of features. glad to see Kia is going over something different. But based on experience, these Hyundai or Kia cars are not so reliable vehicles. hope this one is, especially for an Offroad vehicle
Dunno about buying a kia after watching how kia is treating a lady in the U S with her absolute lemon that is unsafe to drive REPLACE HER CAR KIA YOU ARE TREATING HER LIKE SHIT

Y las luces, en los tapabarro, horrible. Si haces una pickup, aprende de las grandes marcas. Hay mucho espacio para instalar luces de verdad, sinceramente parece que no las trae, es como ver un vehículo incompleto, falta parachoque normal focos, máscara radiador, cromados, ganchos grandes etc
Love everything except the engine choices. Massive engine bay and these pissy little engines. Only thing that lets it down, everything else is awesome.

I love that KIA is not afraid of moving away from "traditional" ute designs. Exterior design is a little bit weird but I love it!
Finally! Something bold and different. Why does every car manufacturer has to look the same?

Have been waiting for this ute for so long. Kia won't get my money byd shark for me..
I like the shark but looks bland, looks like ford pick up truck from a glance
@UnderWarranty this is true

Es tan fea, que me gusta es muy raro

We're is the 6 cylinder deisel promised for aust just under powered to tow a decent 3.2 ton load

Headlights can get damaged if doing tight rugged 4wdriving
Then u buy another headlight as simple as ABCD
Going to have come up with some after market fender flares to cover the pontoon boat look.
Kia’s version of “The Homer” off the Simpsons 😂😂
That's a bit harsh, like it's not amazing, but it's at least better than the cybertruck.
This should have a 'warning: extremely disturbing video' at the start
It's the most failed product and strongly demands the dismissal of the designer and CEO!!!!!!

The BYD shark has already blown this away into the old VHS player cupboard
Great video, thanks for sharing!
Thanks for not using disturbing music
Tasmanian devil for real can’t wait to see what it can do

This is a Ford Ranger competitor. Kiss did say they're going to do a eREV version of the Tasman.
The outside design is just Yeah nah.. and the inside is awesome.. will have to see it IRL but it's not looking good unfortunately
Is it coming to America? And if so when?
Released everywhere except U.S. and Canada basically
ممتاز 😍📸
Are they giving away car covers for Free??
Love it!
I Dont like the front but overall its not bad, its not ev, and looks like it made it for work not only fancy driving.
I guess Kia engineers don't realize how bad this design is
Very Jeep-like. I like it- hopefully it is a good price.
အလယ် ခန်း က ကျယ် ရင် ကောင်းမယ်😊
Will the tail gate hit the tow ball
Design is so good, power could have been more
Whoever designed this, never had experience doing off-roading. The headlights placement is criminal
Kids will run away when they see this 😂😂i actually like it.
Kia and Hyundai are great designs and has a of features. glad to see Kia is going over something different. But based on experience, these Hyundai or Kia cars are not so reliable vehicles. hope this one is, especially for an Offroad vehicle
The headlight doesn't seem bright enough.
Looks like a roblox truck
I agree
not a good idea for making head lights sticking out of the body like that , these are expensive af
Nice eyebrows on the sides lol
More torque, more power
The crazy part is i think it would look good without the black fender flares
디자인 goooooood
Looks like a hippo
One of the ugliest designs Ive ever seen but I am glad another manufacturer is entering the truck market.
It's the most failed product and strongly demands the dismissal of the designer and CEO!!!!!!
Ugliest design belongs to the cyber truck
Looks pretty dope to me, wish I could buy one in the US
They Gonna To Sold In Next Year
Ha ha ha, what a mess of a design.
Better than the pathetic Santa Cruz.
I love it.
Love or hate design😅
@@MukisaSSfacelift Santa Cruz is much better now
I like it
5년후가.기대되네요.
I like it dare to be different even if different is a bit fugly.
You might come to love it in a Hyundai Palisade pugish kind of way.
Yes this comment sums it up for me too. Good on them for being bold. Function over form.
A bit? 😂
The BYD shark seems alot better.
About time something was Made for Australian conditions again...I like it👍
Kia is just starting out. Let them give us a bad looking truck, as long as it's good quality.
Interior looks great, the exterior 😅...my god...what an truelly Unattractive vehicle.
like jeep gladiator
It's a dumpster fire just like the telluride, l traded mine in for a 2019 F250 super duty with 19k miles, best decision l ever made.
Looks like a jeep renegade and a Defender had a baby..😮
I though Kia would come for the big trucks
KIA MAKE HISTORY KIA KING
Design germany ? 😅
No US release. Very disappointing.
Resembles Jeep Gladiator.
Dunno about buying a kia after watching how kia is treating a lady in the U S with her absolute lemon that is unsafe to drive REPLACE HER CAR KIA YOU ARE TREATING HER LIKE SHIT
Beaten repeatedly with the ugly stick since its inception. FFS what were they thinking?
Me like!
This will sell don’t worry
I would much rather have a Toyota Land Cruiser 70 series pickup
this isnt going to sell anything in Aus. thats the most ugly lego looking ute ive seen.
all the concept art was better.
It's okay, just sell it to New Zealand.
Ugly beast like a Mahindra
May similarity sa design ng new Toyota tamaraw
Brand new and it needs a facelift already
Looks like the cat threw up on the design board
Looks ok till you see it from the side. still better than Kia Starmer though I guess
Military look is so last year.
Second ugliest pick up behind the cyber trash can
Jeep gladiator plagiat
Bold design, can't say I don't like it
Yes Why Not
Nope. I tried to squint even. But nope this is UGLY!!!
Kia have been one of the front runners for design, in the last decade. But this thing just looks Stupid, we’re they all on the piss when they designed it
Jeep pick up truck copy past
Whoa that's ugly. 😬
a little bit
@@justdrivepov6263 Nah don't glaze it.. it's disgusting
I like the interior. But the exterior is not the prettiest.
It's the most failed product and strongly demands the dismissal of the designer and CEO!!!!!!
Design wise and the diesel powertrain wise it is .but rest all is very nice.
Esta super mega horrible, lo unico que me agrada es ta forma cuadrada de la cabina.
GAS CON FOOOOOO
Interior 👍🏻 Exterior (front) 👎🏻
Jazuz, its so ugly I want one😅
Interior is amazing, exterior looks like dreadful
Trying to copy byd but failed 🤣
Ssangyong musso rival
This truck looks so dope and sexy. Interior is fire 🔥 Kia has just been on top lately with interior designs ❤ I’m totally gonna get this truck 🎉
This thing is so ugly ....
Frrrr
Everybody scam you
Car is so ugly.. I love it

Pura Mahindra 😂😂
ugly, but something new!🤔

why?
@vzheka1981 it's tiny and gutless compared to hilux, ranger and triton.
@@OllieVK ranger 2.3T, this one 2.5T and I bet it's faster than Hilux
@@vzheka1981 diesel is 2.2 bud.
Beluga face
Telban Brown lol
Está mejor el sinotruck bolden s9
Marhindra clone
Finally Kia Has Pickup Truck Models After Hyundai Has Santa Cruz.👍🏻💪🏻🫡
Yeah but Santa Cruz is unibody.
Yeah that’s a no. I prefer Hyundai Santa Cruz
Interesting to say the least
It looks fucked
Interior is nice but they need to go back to the drawing board for exterior design
No from me
