Vansdirect Welcomes Eagerly Anticipated Kia PV5 Electric Van
Vansdirect has strengthened its brand portfolio with the arrival of the all-new Kia PV5 Cargo electric van.
The model represents Kia’s much vaunted entry into the commercial vehicle marketplace, where it is bidding to emulate the runaway success of its passenger car arm in recent years.
Built on a brand-new modular platform, the PV5 is the inaugural model to come from Kia’s dedicated Purpose-Built Vehicle (PBV) line-up, where it will be joined by the larger PV7 and PV9 in the coming months.
While the PV5 panel van comes in just a single body size for the time being, an H2 version, as well as Crew Van and Chassis Cab models, are expected to be added to the range.
The Kia PV5’s dimensions position it between the small and medium van classes with the Korean firm believing this will appeal particularly to urban-based businesses and last-mile delivery services.
Go Further in the Kia PV5 Cargo
Under the skin, the Kia PV5 Cargo has the choice of two battery size options – 51.5kWh and 71.2kWh.
While the smaller battery is targeted at short haul businesses with its 184 miles of range, the larger battery boasts a durable 258 miles. While not quite as frugal as the Volkswagen ID.Buzz Cargo, the PV5 will go further on a single charge than the Citroen e-Dispatch (et al.) and Ford E-Transit Custom.
Charging can also be completed in just 30 minutes using a rapid EV charger.
The Kia PV5 Cargo will come with one of the most comprehensive warranty packages in its class with the manufacturer’s standard 7-year/100,000-mile warranty being applied, plus an 8-year warranty for the battery.
