Kia entered the electric van market in the UK in May 2025 with the launch of the Kia PV5, a fully electric medium van. Unlike many manufacturers, who converted existing diesel chassis to fit electric drivetrains, the PV5 was designed from the ground up as a fully electric vehicle.
As a brand-new design, the PV5 is optimised to make the most of the EV landscape that the UK is moving toward.
With a driving range of up to 258 miles, the Kia PV5 is an excellent business van lease option. Payload capacity is 790kg, and the load floor can comfortably fit two euro pallets inside.

Key Features:
The Kia PV5’s maximum range of 258 miles is one of the highest among medium electric vans. With a powerful enough charger, the PV5 can charge from 10% to 80% in 30 minutes. It’s easy to see the benefits of a PV5 when looking at an electric van lease for your business, as it practically eliminates range anxiety and significantly reduces charging downtime.
To get the best out of your electric van lease, we recommend you do the same as you would for a diesel van – look after it! Drive safely and with consideration, and your electric van will serve you as well, if not better, than any diesel could.
Some electric best practices:
The Kia PV5 incorporates a Vehicle to Load capability, allowing the electric van’s battery to power tools and other devices while on site. Combined with a load space of 4.4m3, the PV5 electric van is a suitable vehicle for construction work.
An electric van should always be the first choice when considering last mile delivery. It is more economical than a diesel, is quieter, and avoids any clean air zone charges. The Kia PV5 has front and rear parking sensors, a rear camera, and collision avoidance assistance, helping you out on those busy urban streets.
The Kia PV5 has a full suite of traffic detection and collision avoidance features, ensuring your safety while enroute to any highway work. The Vehicle to Load capability can power tools and devices from the van’s battery, and the fast charge capability means that even if you use most of the charge on site, you can easily recharge overnight ready for the next day.
The Kia PV5’s 4.4m3 load capacity can be easily fitted out with shelving to hold tools and electrical parts, and any wireless power tools can be charged directly from the electric van’s battery. Navigation is simple with a 12.9” touchscreen.
