Kia Unveils Upcoming Exterior Design Of PV5 Ahead Of World Premiere
South Korean automaker, Kia unveiled the exterior design of its PV5 Passenger and Cargo models ahead of the brand’s second Kia EV Day, which will be held in Tarragona, Spain, later this month.
Previewed by the Concept PV5 at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in 2024, the mid-sized PV5 is the first model to make its debut under Kia’s new Platform Beyond Vehicle (PBV) global business strategy. In addition to that, the PV5 will leverage Kia’s EV technology to fulfil the needs of its broad customer base by providing flexibility and customisation.
Kia will offer the PV5 in multiple configurations to meet a wide range of usage. The passenger and cargo models will be joined by additions to the range, including specialised conversion options, which will be unveiled at the 2025 Kia EV Day.
“While the PV5 is offered in three different body styles to provide innovative solutions for a diverse range of customer needs, they all embody the same consistent design values inspired by Kia’s design philosophy, ‘Opposites United. Each model confidently expresses a solid, bold, futuristic character and a highly capable attitude,” said Karim Habib, Head, Kia Global Design.
Kia PV5 Passenger Design
The Kia PV5 Passenger features black geometric wheel arch claddings and rocker panels, maintaining the design of Kia’s SUV lineup. Additionally, the signature lighting and sleek black accents on the main headlight units elevate the PV5’s modern appeal.
The rear of the PV5 Passenger highlights the PBV’s modern character and projects a functional nature. The D-pillar line extends to the rear. The PV5 also features a single lift-up tailgate door, set above a bumper that mirrors the protective corners at the front. The body color stretches from the side to the rear, amplifying a horizontal stance.
Kia PV5 Cargo Design
While the PV5’s Cargo version shares the same design of the PV5 Passenger, it features a boxier profile. A key difference lies in the Cargo's twin side-opening tailgate doors, which provide practicality and easy access for loading and unloading, allowing users to customise their experience. Furthermore, this approach boosts load capacity and creates a more spacious feel.
