The Korean brand announces three body variants. The Passenger is intended for passenger transport and will soon be available in seven-seat versions.

The Passenger variant is available from €25,450, while the Cargo starts at €18,390 (discounts and Moves III plan applied).
The Kia PV5 is 100% electric and comes in two battery capacities: 51.5 kWh or 71.2 kWh, with a third, 43.3 kWh option for the PV5 Cargo, which will be available later. The 51.5 kWh version is paired with an electric motor and produces 122 hp, while power increases to 163 hp with the 71.2 kWh battery.
With the larger battery capacity, the PV5 Passenger can achieve a range of up to 416 km. The 51.5 kWh version, meanwhile, allows for a range of up to 288 km. Rapid charging allows for a 10% to 80% charge in 30 minutes. It also offers vehicle-to-vehicle charging (V2L) for external power supplies.
The design of the new Kia PV5 is inspired by Kia's " Opposites United " design philosophy and offers a fresh, futuristic aesthetic that emphasizes flexibility and customization through modularity. Highlights include its avant-garde light signature, running boards, and robust corners, creating a strong personality.
The interior finishes are based on a bold, vibrant color palette inspired by nature, with mixed fabric and vegan leather upholstery or a two-tone vegan leather interior. Kia uses innovative eco-friendly materials as an alternative to PVC, which are also durable and easy to clean. Additionally, seat upholstery options also include eco-friendly polyurethane.
True to its family vehicle design, the PV5 incorporates multiple solutions designed to improve the on-board experience for its occupants. The second row of seats includes a footrest and USB ports located on the sides of the front seatbacks.
A heating function has been integrated into the sides of the second-row seats, and there is a rear pocket on the driver's seat. Customers can choose between a fixed or sliding window in the second-row door.
In terms of connectivity, the PV5 is equipped with a 7-inch instrument cluster and a 12.9-inch navigation screen. The infotainment system is based on the Android Automotive operating system and features an extensive catalog of apps. Remote updates ensure you always enjoy the latest features.
