Obviously not (yet?) available in the US but other countries have much smaller trucks with larger beds. https://www.kia.com/dm/showroom/K2700-2022/specification.html

That plus a 2200 lb hauling capacity make them a very capable, efficient, and reasonably safe truck.

Kinda funny how much the styles differ between USA and Europe ๐Ÿ™‚. Looks like a great work truck. No space for a car seat in the back though so you would need a separate family vehicle. Which might be practical anyway!

This would satisfy my regular truck needs. But a 2200lb hauling capacity doesnโ€™t work well with horses. A single horse can easily weighs 1200 pounds.

I could see this being great for many people here. But itโ€™s also not a universal fit.

I saw a similar truck in the US the other day, a Honda Street/Acty. It was so cute!
