Kia Tasman

Australia’s ute buyers have picked from the same handful of names for a decade, but that shortlist just got a new entry. The Kia Tasman is the Korean brand’s first proper dual-cab pickup, and it isn’t tiptoeing into the segment — it’s landed with five grades, genuine off-road hardware, and a cabin that leans harder into screens and tech than almost anything else with a tray on the back.

BMW iX3: Australia’s New Electric SUV for 2026

There’s a new shape turning up in BMW showrooms around the country, and it marks a genuine reset for the brand’s electric ambitions.

Audo Copenhagen JWDA Table Lamp: The Danish Design Icon Built on Contrast

Most table lamps pick a lane: they’re either sculptural objects you admire or functional fixtures you switch on and forget. The Audo Copenhagen JWDA Table Lamp refuses to choose. Its opal glass shade sits on a base of raw concrete, cool marble or polished brass, pairing something fragile with something solid in a way that has made it one of the most recognisable lamps in contemporary Scandinavian design.
