About the Kia Tasman
The Kia Tasman is a diesel double cab bakkie available in South Africa across LX, SX 4x4, and X Pro 4x4 specification levels, all powered by a 2.2-litre turbodiesel engine with automatic transmission, marking Kias entry into the highly competitive South African bakkie segment against the Toyota Hilux, Ford Ranger, and Isuzu D-Max. The X Pro 4x4 at the top of the range adds a more adventure-focused specification and styling package, while the entry LX covers buyers who want a practical double cab diesel at a competitive price with Kias seven-year warranty. The Tasman suits buyers who want a well-specified diesel double cab bakkie with a strong warranty and are open to a new entrant in a segment dominated by established Japanese and American nameplates.
Who is the Tasman best for?
- Double cab bakkie buyers who want Kias seven-year warranty and a 2.2-litre diesel in a competitive new entrant
- Buyers comparing the Tasman against the Toyota Hilux and Ford Ranger who want a newer alternative with strong warranty coverage
- Adventure and lifestyle buyers who want the X Pro 4x4 as a capable, well-specified double cab with off-road styling
- Fleet and commercial buyers who want a diesel double cab with automatic transmission and comprehensive warranty coverage
