rmc523 Posted October 29 Share Posted October 29 New Kia Tasman: 5 Things You Need To Know About The Practical And Tech-Filled Pickup | Carscoops It's not coming here, but figured I'd post it anyway... The inside looks nice, but that exterior is horrible. The front reminds me of the pigs from Angry Birds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherminator98 Posted October 29 Share Posted October 29 The cab looks like a Tacoma in shape The front end and fenders look like Jeep that left in an oven for too long and was melted. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atomcat68 Posted October 29 Share Posted October 29 I kind of like it. I'd change the fender flares so they don't look like Groucho Marx's eyebrows though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a worse design than the cybertruck. The cybertruck is ugly, but at least it's very creative and distinct. This is uglier than the cybertruck, and also very generic looking. This is genuinely the worst looking truck I've ever seen. I literally said WTF after seeing it. I saw that front pic earlier today and thought it was a good awful fan rendering. It thought, there's no way the front looks like that... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeluxeStang Posted October 30 Share Posted October 30 I feel like peak Korean design was when they mastered ripping off the Europeans, like around 2015-2020. Once they started trying to do their own thing again, their designs have started to go back downhill. Does anyone else agree with this sentiment? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CKNSLS Posted October 30 Share Posted October 30 Sounds like the thread when the Silverado Heavy Duty trucks came out. Front-end ugly, etc. Well sales are proving otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Up and comers like Kia need to nail all the essentials to establish a strong foothold in the segment, and they haven't done that here. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpd80 Posted November 3 Share Posted November 3 (edited) Guys, I can tell you that all the early enthusiasm for the Kia Tasman has evaporated, File this one under extreme self wounding and taste buds in the rectum……. All I can say is that Ford and Toyota needn’t be concerned in the slightest, this thing has neither the looks or credibility to attract anything more than stares and sniggers…..why would you buy this thing when Isuzu and Mazda have better looking and more affordable pickups… Edited November 3 by jpd80 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
