We bring you a public road test drive of the much-talked-about new EV, the Kia PV5!
This time, we visited Kia Tokyo West and test drove the PV5 Passenger.
The PV5 is attracting a lot of attention as a base vehicle for campervans, but when we actually drove it around town, we were surprised by its "ease of driving, like a regular minivan."
✔ Excellent visibility thanks to its body size
✔ Quietness and smooth acceleration unique to EVs
✔ The ease of use of regenerative braking (i-Pedal)
✔ Potential as a base vehicle for campervans
We'll share the "real impressions we felt from actually driving it," which you can't get from just looking at the specifications.
In the future, we hope to bring you test drives on highways and winding roads, and even impressions of the campervan version, so please subscribe to our channel!
