Kia Truck

Kia has confirmed that they are working on a midsize truck. There isnt a lot of details available yet.

The Kia "compact" pickup, the Santa Cruz, is 195" long. About the same as the Telluride.

Midsized pickups, such as the Ranger, are on the order of 210" long. Or about the same as a regular cab F-150 w/6' bed.

So if based on the Telluride, expect a lengthened wheelbase.

Kia is a company that is shaking up the auto world with some of their new product. Although they're the sister company to Hyundai...they seem to have products that are higher rated. This will undoubtedly be a contender for the new Maverick when it comes out...and...their warranty is the gold standard in the industry.

I'm excited to see this and I love the fact that people are starting to see that trucks of all sizes are less costly than their SUV siblings and yet much more capable.

The K twins are definitely building high quality products and their warranties as mentioned are superior in every way.
