- Don’t be too excited, Kia still has no plans to sell Tasman in the United States.
- This example of a truck may have landed locally for promotional photos.
- Kia said the buyer was in Tasman’s appearance, but we didn’t believe it.
Americans like pickup truck-forever, forever. After all, the United States is actually the birthplace of modern pickups. However, although Kia Tasman’s attractiveness to truck buyers is obvious, it will not enter US dealers. Nevertheless, at least one example landed on the soil of the United States, and its new photos surfaced on the Internet.
It is said that this special Tasman was among one of the storage facilities in Hyundai-Kia Reddit user/mmuulinTogether with modern Ioniq 5 and Kia EV9. It seems to be a complete model, with some additional funds, such as the movement of the rear, the retractable Torinoga and the one -side step. A question is raised; if there is no plan to be sold, why should you transport one here?
Reading: Kia said that buyers are warming Tasman’s appearance
We are in contact with Ya, but we have not received their echo. A commentator said Tasman recently found promotional photos in the California desert. Kia may also take this opportunity to conduct some final durability tests on the vehicle before the start of the customer’s delivery.
Tasman’s appearance design continues to trigger a lot of debates. Some people think that this is a downright ugliness, and others think it is the ugly that grows on you. “San Morri headlights are so ugly, why is the headlight so far?” A user wrote. The other person said, “This is the ugliest truck I have ever seen. I have a ridge.”
Kia’s clear design has caused controversy. However, in an interview with Australian media recently, the brand’s local general manager said that customers are adopting an unconventional appearance, especially after seeing the truck in the flesh and spending time.
Kia Tasman: Five things about polarization
As for why Tasman is not sold in the United States? You can thank the infamous chicken duty, which is a 25 % tariff on imported trucks. If Kia wants to provide Tasman in various states, it will need to build it in China, and this move needs a lot of investment. At least at present, American truck buyers will have to appreciate (or laugh at).
