Introducing the new Kia PV5 Passenger
Introducing the Kia PV5 Passenger, based on Kia's E-GMP.S (Electric Global Modular Platform for Service) the PV5 Passenger offers enhanced space, durability, modular flexibility and structural safety.
Similar to the PV5 Cargo, the PV5 Passenger clue is in its name, allowing transport for up to seven people, rather than its sibling's load carrying character.
Unique, modern styling and the ability to adapt when needed, Kia PV5 Passenger can be the perfect companion to your lifestyle.
Design and Practicality
Kia has taken the traditional MPV/van shape, and enhanced it, offering a properly futuristic and unique character, with smart integrated lighting, a sleeker upper body and a lower stance, which all add up to ensure this isn't just another vanilla people mover.
Sure, it shares the same three-bumper design with its van sibling, but it still looks ultra modern and actually helps with repair time and maintenance costs if it was to get damaged.
And, as for practicality, the PV5 Passenger will launch with five seats, with a seven-seat version also following, for those wanting to move people in complete and unique style.
Technology and Safety
The interior of the Kia PV5 Passenger is loaded with state-of-the-art technology. There's a 7.5-inch driver display screen (digital instrument cluster) which is complemented by a 12.9-inch touchscreen central navigation. What's great is that these features come as standard on all PV5 Passenger models.
Over-The-Air Functionality means that your PV5 Passenger is also able to stay right up to date with ease, whilst other standard features like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto mean staying connected is also easy.
And, as for safety, the PV5 Passenger has the following features:
- Front and rear parking sensors
- Reversing camera
- Forward collision avoidance
- Highway Driving Assist
- Smart cruise control with stop/go
Economy and Performance
The Kia PV5 Passenger is fully-electric, meaning the power comes from an electric motor and battery combination. This ensures near silent operation and added smoothness, enhancing the comfort of the PV5 Passenger and also increasing the refinement.
There's a 51.5 kWh short range version, along with a more powerful 71.2 kWh long range variant. The short range PV5 Passenger equates to 120bhp, whilst the long range PV5 Passenger offers more power, with 161bhp.
Both versions feature a 1 speed fully-automatic transmission, with the standard PV5 Passenger returning up to 183 miles of range. This is increased in the long range version, which offers up to 256 miles of range.
Charging
Charging, as with all electric vehicles, will vary depending on the chosen set-up. But, it is worth noting that the Kia PV5 Passenger is available with ultra-fast charging, meaning you can charge from 10 to 80 percent in less than 30 minutes.
More routine overnight charging and similar will also be available, and will see the PV5 Passenger charged between 5 and 10 hours depending on version.
