Buzz) begins the heat of the rear wheels and adds a front engine for some versions, the PV5 is a relationship with only front wheels. Single motor setting produces 161 hp (120 kW) and 184 lb (250 Nm of torque).
KIA designed PV5 to accommodate three batteries: 51.5 kW per hour and 71.2 kW an hour of manganese cobalt (NCM) for all versions, in addition to the 43.3 kg and LFP (LFP) iron battery. The Korean brand quotes a maximum range of 249 miles (400 km) on the WLTP cycle of the passenger model with the larger battery. The battery juice will take from 10 % to 80 % half an hour.
Unlike most KIA models, the digital tools set is combined with information and entertainment, the driver’s screen is 7 inches separate from the 12.9 -inch touch screen. There are still some solid buttons in the central control unit for quick access. PV5 WAV, which we mentioned earlier, slope features can resist 661 pounds (300 kg). The maximum charging material is a charging area of 5.1 cubic meters and can suit two euros platforms.
Kia PV5 in Europe and Korea will sell in the second half of the year, with other regions followed in 2026. Although 25 % chicken tax will strike the truck in North America, the president and CEO of KIA, Ho Sung Song, said during the 2025 Kia Ev day that the company will try to find a way to bring PV5 to the United States.
Since this new truck is called PV5, it leaves room for larger and smaller models as part of an expanded platform assortment outside a PBV.
