Just when you thought Kia’s adverts couldn’t get any more iconic.

Last year the South Korean car company went viral for rolling out a cavalcade of famous sportsmen and women in an advert teasing what their new ute would be called.

Now the sequel – promoting the KIA Tasman - has landed and it features Australian sporting royalty including Ash Barty, Erin Phillips, Peter Daicos, Dane Swan, Jason Gillespie and Pat Rafter.

There’s also a hilarious cameo from Rafa Nadal!

The “storyline” is that Barty has seemingly been misled into buying a rundown property and so calls in a parade of sporting greats to fix it up.

When asked to help out via video call, Nadal even pulled out some Aussie slang asking “Is it a cashie?”
