Kia Australia has officially confirmed pricing for the all-new Tasman cab-chassis range. The announcement rounds out the line-up, giving buyers and fleets clarity across both body styles.
Pricing Across the Range
The Tasman cab-chassis will be available in both Single-Cab and Dual-Cab formats, with prices starting from a sharp $38,010 RRP:
- Single-Cab chassis
- S 4×2 – $38,010 RRP
- S 4×4 – $45,010 RRP
- SX 4×4 – $49,520 RRP
- Dual-Cab chassis
- S 4×4 – $48,240 RRP
- SX 4×4 – $52,740 RRP
The Dual-Cab chassis models arrive in dealerships from August, while Single-Cab chassis variants will follow later in 2025.
All cab-chassis models can be paired with Kia Genuine Accessories trays, with additional options including under-tray drawers, toolboxes, and water tanks—ideal for fleets needing tailored fit-outs.
Built for Australian Conditions
The Tasman is Kia’s first ute, designed with more Australian input than any previous model. Its ladder-frame chassis, high-mount double wishbone suspension, and solid-axle rear leaf springs deliver rugged capability.
All 4×4 models feature Kia’s 4×4 Active transfer case, offering selectable 2H, 4H, and 4L modes, plus an automatic 4A setting for seamless traction management. A mechanical locking rear differential is standard, while the flagship X-Pro Pick-Up adds a driver-selectable electronic diff lock, upgraded suspension, 252mm ground clearance, and an impressive 32.2-degree approach angle.
Terrain drive modes (Auto, Snow, Mud, Sand, and Rock on X-Pro) further enhance capability, supported by off-road tech such as X-Trek low-speed crawl control and a Ground View Monitor for navigating tricky terrain.
Towing Confidence
Every Tasman comes with the industry-standard 3,500kg braked towing capacity and 350kg tow ball download. A factory-fitted Integrated Trailer Brake Controller (ITBC) sets the Kia apart from many rivals, giving drivers fine control with 20 brake-force settings. Trailer Stability Assist is also standard, while a dedicated Tow Mode optimises transmission performance under heavy loads.
Cooling has been engineered with Australian towing in mind, with a water-to-air intercooler and high-capacity radiators for both engine and transmission.
Versatility for Work and Play
Payloads across the range exceed 1,000kg, with the Dual Cab Pick-Up also offering a segment-first ability to fit a full Australian pallet in its tub (1,512mm x 1,572mm x 540mm). Fleets and novated lease buyers will also note that some Pick-Up models can be specified with a reduced payload option to fall under the 1,000kg threshold, meeting common salary packaging requirements.
Inside, the Tasman features Kia’s new Integrated Panoramic Display with twin 12.3-inch screens and a 5-inch climate display. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard, along with Kia Connect remote services and OTA updates.
Trim levels range from the work-ready S and SX through to SX+, X-Line, and the flagship X-Pro, which brings luxury touches such as a sunroof, Harman Kardon sound system, heated and ventilated seats, and dual wireless phone charging.
A Strong New Contender
With sharp pricing, impressive towing credentials, genuine off-road ability, and Australian-developed accessories, the Tasman is shaping up as a serious rival to established ute players in the local market.
For fleet managers, the cab-chassis options provide a versatile foundation for trade and service applications, while novated lease customers will find the Pick-Up’s flexibility, comfort, and safety tech compelling for both work and family life.
